  1. ^ Certain award groups do not simply award one winner. They acknowledge several different recipients, have runners-up, and have third place. Since this is a specific recognition and is different from losing an award, runner-up mentions are considered wins in this award tally. For simplification and to avoid errors, each award in this list has been presumed to have had a prior nomination.

Fringe is an American drama series that aired on Fox from September 9, 2008, to January 18, 2013. It has been nominated for a variety of different awards including two Primetime Emmy Awards, fifteen Saturn Awards (winning seven), eight Golden Reel Awards, two Satellite Awards, and two Writers Guild of America Awards.

The Fringe series follows an FBI Fringe Division team based in Boston, Massachusetts. The team uses unorthodox "fringe" science and FBI investigative techniques to investigate "the Pattern", a series of unexplained and often ghastly occurrences taking place all over the world. Joshua Jackson and Jasika Nicole both garnered nominations for their starring and co-starring roles. Leonard Nimoy received a Saturn Award, for his guest stint on the show. "Pilot" is the most nominated single episode of the series, receiving nominations at five different awards ceremonies and six nominations total. The episode garnered a VES award, and was nominated for the series' first Emmy.
