Primetime Emmy Award For Outstanding Supporting Actor In A Drama Series
This is a list of winners and nominees of the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series.

However, these dramatic performances often included actors from miniseries, telefilms, and guest performers competing against main cast competitors. Such instances are marked below: * # – Indicates a performance in a Miniseries or Television film, prior to the category's creation * § – Indicates a performance as a guest performer, prior to the category's creation FOX is the only one of the Big Four networks to not win this category, with only one nomination.

Daytime Emmy Award For Outstanding Supporting Actor In A Drama Series
The Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series is an award presented annually by the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences (NATAS) and Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (ATAS). It is given to honor an actor who has delivered an outstanding performance in a supporting role while working within the daytime drama industry. At the 6th Daytime Emmy Awards held in 1979, Peter Hansen was the first winner of this award for his portrayal of Lee Baldwin on '' General Hospital''. The awards ceremony was not televised in 1983 and 1984, having been criticized for voting integrity. Following the introduction of a new category in 1985, Outstanding Younger Actor in a Drama Series, the criteria for this category was altered, requiring all actors to be aged 26 or above. Since its inception, the award has been given to 34 actors. ''General Hospital'' is the show with the most awarded actors, with a total of twelve wins. In 1983, Darnell Willi ...

Dragnet (1951 Series)
''Dragnet''—later syndicated as ''Badge 714''—is an American television series, based on the radio series of the same name, both created by their star, Jack Webb. The shows take their name from the police term ''dragnet'', a system of coordinated measures for apprehending criminals or suspects. Webb reprised his radio role of Los Angeles police detective Sergeant Joe Friday. Ben Alexander co-starred as Friday's partner, Officer Frank Smith. The ominous, four-note introduction to the brass and tympani theme music (titled "Danger Ahead"), composed by Walter Schumann, is instantly recognizable. It is derived from Miklós Rózsa's score for the 1946 film ''The Killers''. This was the first television series in a ''Dragnet'' media franchise encompassing film, television, books and comics.
