Every year, sci-fi fans everywhere wait for an award that truly appreciates exactly how well-crafted, well-acted, and how awesome sci-fi, horror, and fantasy works can be, and every year, the Academy of Science Fiction Fantasy & Horror delivers. On March 11th, the nominees for this year's Saturn Awards were announced and we here at TVOvermind were tickled to see some of our favorite shows up-front and center stage. Granted, some of these shows will probably be canceled by the time the winners are announced (here's to you, my darling Terminator!), but we love them anyway, and always will.

Yeah, I'll have to read about the winners here without getting invested at all because the awards pit Battlestar Galactica against Leverage. I can't be expected to choose, the fact they are in the same 'best show' category is ludicrous.
Awwww. Me? I get to look forward to seeing my precious show trounced in every category.
Go, BSG, go!
