  CableACE Award - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The CableACE Award 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 tv programing making a separate awards show unnecessary.

The annual CableACE Awards for the best in cable television were presented November 15 in Los Angeles, making winners of some of the programs of interest to gays and lesbians that were finalists for the Emmy's.
Although HBO was just as strong as NBC at this year's Emmy's, it used to be that CableACE was all a cable show could hope for -- and that may be again, since the broadcast networks are arguing now that cable should be removed from the Emmy competition.
The CableACE awards underscore once again that the cable medium, lead by HBO, isn't nearly as queasy about gay and lesbian content as the broadcast networks.
