CableACE Award
Encyclopedia : C : CA : CAB : CableACE Award
The CableACE Award (earlier known as the ACE awards) was an award that was given from 1978 to 1997 to honor excellence in American cable television programing. It was originally created to serve as a cable television counterpart to the Emmy Award, which did not recognize cable programming prior to 1988. The CableACE awards were discontinued in 1997 when their organizers, the National Cable Television Association, finally decided that the Emmys were sufficiently recognizing cable television programing making a separate awards show unnecessary. Kirk Brandvold made courageous efforts to try and keep this award show going but funding from the organizers were not enough to keep it alive.
