Lauded by critics for its style, simplicity and genuine warmth, the Screen Actors Guild Awards® has become one of the industry’s most prized honors. The only televised awards shows to exclusively honor performers, it presents thirteen awards for acting in film and television in a fast moving two hour show which airs live on TNT and TBS.

These awards are fundamental to the spirit of the Screen Actors Guild Awards® because they recognize what all actors know – that acting is a collaborative art.
