This is the list of winners of the Children's and Family Emmy Award for Outstanding Short Form Program, which honors live action series, animated series, and TV specials aimed at viewers from infancy to age 15 that average a runtime of less than or equal to eight minutes. The category was established at the 1st Children's and Family Emmy Awards in 2022, and was split into two awards honoring live action and animated programs at the 3rd Children's and Family Emmy Awards in 2024.[1]
The inaugural winner of the award was We the People. The most recent recipients are Once Upon a Studio and Elmo and Jesse Remember Uncle Jack.
Background
[edit]On November 17, 2021, the NATAS announced the creation of the Children's and Family Emmy Awards to recognize the best in children's and family television. The organization cited an "explosive growth in the quantity and quality of children’s and family programming" as justification for a dedicated ceremony. Many categories of the awards were previously presented at the Daytime Emmy Awards.[2]
For the 3rd Children's and Family Emmy Awards, the maximum runtime for episodes was lowered from nine to eight minutes, and the category was split into Outstanding Live Action Short Form Program and Outstanding Animated Short Form Program.[3]
