# Star Awards for Best Drama Serial

The Star Awards for Best Drama Serial is an award presented annually at the Star Awards, a ceremony that was established in 1994.
The category was only introduced in 1996, at the 3rd Star Awards ceremony; Tofu Street received the award and it is given in honour of a Mediacorp drama serial which has delivered an outstanding overall performance. The nominees are determined by a team of judges employed by Mediacorp; winners are selected by a majority vote from the entire judging panel.
Since its inception, the award has been given to 26 drama serials, 12 of which received multiple nominations. Your World In Mine was the most recent winner in this category. Of all the awarded dramas, The Dream Makers is also the only drama serial to date to win in this category twice. In addition, C.L.I.F. has been nominated on five occasions, more than any other drama serial; it also holds the record for the most nominations without a win.
