"Breaking Bad" leads with six nominations on the TV side of the 38th annual Saturn Awards.

Right behind with five bids is "American Horror Story." Both of them contend for Best Cable/Syndicated Series against "The Closer" (2 noms); "Dexter" (4); "Leverage" (4) and "True Blood."

Best Network Series nominees are: "Fringe" (4 noms); "A Gifted Man"; "Grimm"; "Once Upon a Time" (4); "Supernatural" and "Terra Nova."

"Game of Thrones" has four bids including one for Best Presentation (10 Episodes or Less). It contends for that prize against "Camelot"; "Falling Skies" (2 noms); "The Killing" (4); "Torchwood: Miracle Day" (4); "Trek Nation" and "The Walking Dead" (2)

Members of the Academy of Science Fiction, Fantasy & Horror decided both nominees and the winners who will be revealed on June 20.

Begun in 1972 to honor often overlooked films, the organization has extended its reach in recent years, adding TV awards in 1989 as well as that expanded category of action/adventure/thriller films in 1994 and DVD releases in 2003.

What do you think of the nominees on the TV side?

Zach should win though that show was pure trash and tomfoolery. One of the worst shows EVER! It was like a cheap, overhyped, rip off of "The Others." Glad that shit is over, I hope it NEVER gets renewed.

LOL at your rant against AHS.

Sorry to burst your bubble but it already got renewed.

Good luck to Zack though.

and thankfully Ryan Murphy will be starting from scratch with Season two Watching the direction Glee went....everything he does the first season seems to be good and everything goes downhill after.

Happy fro Grimm and Once Upon A Time...along with Game of thrones, The Killing, True Blood etc.

Lots of Canceled or soon to be canceled shows nominated....like A Gifted Man, Camelot and Terranova.

Zach is going to be in season 2 of AHS. yay for supernatural, walking dead ect. good noms.

My favs in each category [some have more because I'd be happy with a couple nominees winning].
