The category, which specifically rewards young actors and actresses in television, was first introduced at the 40th Saturn Awards in 2013 where it was won by Chandler Riggs for his role as Carl Grimes in The Walking Dead. Riggs also leads with the most nominations in the category, with five, and he, Brec Bassinger and Maisie Williams are the only performers to have won twice. Max Charles holds the record for most nominations without a win, with three.

At the 50th Anniversary Saturn Awards, the category was split to recognize performers in both network/cable series and streaming series however, the categories were merged again at the subsequent 51st Saturn Awards.
