The Saturn Award for Best Performance by a Younger Actor in a Television Series is one of the annual awards given by the American professional organization, the Academy of Science Fiction, Fantasy & Horror Films. The Saturn Awards are the oldest film-specialized awards to reward science fiction, fantasy, and horror achievements (the Hugo Award for Best Dramatic Presentation, awarded by the World Science Fiction Society who reward science fiction and fantasy in various media, is the oldest award for science fiction and fantasy films).
The category, which specifically rewards young actors and actresses in television, was first introduced at the 40th Saturn Awards in 2013 where it was won by Chandler Riggs for his role as Carl Grimes in The Walking Dead . Riggs also leads with the most nominations in the category, with five, and he, Brec Bassinger and Maisie Williams are the only performers to have won twice. Max Charles holds the record for most nominations without a win, with three.
At the 50th Anniversary Saturn Awards, the category was split to recognize performers in both network/cable series and streaming series; however, the categories were merged again at the subsequent 51st Saturn Awards. [1]
