Hugo Award for Best Dramatic Presentation
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Hugo Awards are given annually by members of the World Science Fiction Convention for the best science fiction or fantasy works. The awards are named after Hugo Gernsback, the founder of the pioneering science fiction magazine Amazing Stories, and given in various categories.
Winners for the Hugo Award for Best Dramatic Presentation are presented here.
Awards given in one year are for works released during the previous calendar year. Winning titles are listed first, with other nominees listed below. In 2003 the category was split into Long Form and Short Form awards, for presentations longer and shorter than 90 minutes, essentially to distinguish between theatrical movies and television episodes. In the case of television presentations, the award is for a particular episode rather than for a program as a whole.
