History
Since its institution in 1951 the award has changed names many times in its history. It was first called Best Dramatic Show from 1951 to 1954, then Best Dramatic Series in 1955 and 1956. In 1957, no specific award for drama was given, but in 1958 the category was split into two separate categories, Best Dramatic Anthology Series, and Best Dramatic Series with Continuing Characters with a winner selected from each category. The following year, the category was differently split into two separate categories, Best Dramatic Series – Less Than One Hour. In 1960, the name was changed yet again to Outstanding Program Achievement in the Field of Drama; this name was kept from 1960 to 1964. In 1966, it had its sixth name change to Outstanding Dramatic Series or Outstanding Series-Drama; this was used from 1966 until recently, when it became Outstanding Drama Series.
In 1988, Rumpole of the Bailey (PBS) was initially nominated in the Outstanding Miniseries category[3][4] but the Academy ruled that the nomination was not valid a few days later[5] and later allowed the program to compete in the Outstanding Drama Series category.[6][7]
Since 2000, every single winner has been a serial drama: The West Wing (2000–2003), The Sopranos (2004, 2007), Lost (2005), 24 (2006), Mad Men (2008–2011), Homeland (2012), Breaking Bad (2013–2014), Game of Thrones (2015–2016, 2018, 2019), The Handmaid's Tale (2017), and Succession (2020). Since the advent of Hill Street Blues in 1981, every winner has had some serialized arcs with the exception of Law & Order.[A] The majority of these shows have won between their first and fifth seasons. Only two shows' sixth seasons have won (both HBO shows): The Sopranos and Game of Thrones, two shows' seventh seasons have won: Law & Order and Game of Thrones and one show's eighth season has won: Game of Thrones.

Notes
- In 1953, two separate series categories existed, Best Dramatic Program and Best Mystery, Action or Adventure Program, and an award was given in each category. Robert Montgomery Presents won Best Dramatic Program, while Dragnet won Best Mystery, Action or Adventure Program.
- In 1954, two separate series categories existed, Best Dramatic Program and Best Mystery, Action or Adventure Program, and an award was given in each category. The United States Steel Hour won Best Dramatic Program, while Dragnet won Best Mystery, Action or Adventure Program.
- In 1955, three separate series categories existed, Best Dramatic Series, Best Mystery or Intrigue Series and Best Western or Adventure Series, and an award was given in each category. The United States Steel Hour won Best Dramatic Series, Dragnet won Best Mystery or Intrigue Series, while Stories of the Century won Best Action or Adventure Series.
- In 1956, two separate series categories existed, Best Dramatic Series and Best Action or Adventure Series, and an award was given in each category. Producers' Showcase won Best Dramatic Series, while Disneyland won Best Action or Adventure Series.
- In 1957, two separate series categories existed, Best Series – Half Hour or Less and Best Series – One Hour or More, and an award was given in each category. The Phil Silvers Show, a comedy, won Best Series – Half Hour or Less, while Caesar's Hour, another comedy, won Best Series – One Hour or More. For this year (and also in 1965), dramas competed directly against comedies, musical variety, and other shows.
- In 1958, two separate drama series categories existed, Best Dramatic Series with Continuing Characters and Best Dramatic Anthology Series, and an award was given in each category. Gunsmoke won Best Dramatic Series with Continuing Characters, while Playhouse 90 won Best Dramatic Anthology Series.
- In 1959, three separate drama series categories existed, Best Dramatic Series – Less Than One Hour, Best Dramatic Series-One Hour or Longer and Best Western Series, and an award was given in each category. Alcoa-Goodyear Theatre won Best Dramatic Series-Less Than One Hour, Playhouse 90 won Best Dramatic Series – One Hour or Longer,, while Maverick won Best Western Series.
- In 1988, Rumpole of the Bailey was added to this category after it was nominated and disqualified in the Miniseries category.
- A : Saying Law & Order had no serialized arcs is potentially misleading. It's true that Law & Order is at its core a procedural, with only very lightly-serialized elements as a general rule. However, in its Emmy-winning seventh season, the show had a three-episode arc—"D-Girl", "Turnaround", and "Showtime"—concerning a high-profile murder case. In addition, the episode "Entrapment" was a sequel to season 3's "Conspiracy" .
- B : The sixth season of The Sopranos was split into two parts. They are both considered season 6.
- C : The fifth season of Breaking Bad was split into two parts. They are both considered season 5.
- D : The seventh season of Mad Men was split into two parts. They are both considered season 7.
