  1. ↑ Certain award groups do not simply award one winner. They acknowledge several different recipients, have runners-up, and have third place. Since this is a specific recognition and is different from losing an award, runner-up mentions are considered wins in this award tally. For simplification and to avoid errors, each award in this list has been presumed to have had a prior nomination.

Heartstopper is a British coming-of-age romantic comedy-drama television series created and written by Alice Oseman for Netflix, based on her webcomic and graphic novel series of the same name. It follows teenagers Charlie Spring and Nick Nelson, played by Joe Locke and Kit Connor, whose friendship develops into a romantic relationship as they navigate school and young love.[1] The series premiered on 22 April 2022,[2] followed by a second series on 3 August 2023[3] and a third on 3 October 2024.[4]

The series received critical acclaim[a] and numerous accolades. Heartstopper has received 17 Children's and Family Emmy Awards nominations, winning seven, and has also won all three of its GLAAD Media Awards and two Royal Television Society Awards. Among individual recipients, Connor and Locke won Children's and Family Emmy Awards for lead performance, while Oseman won twice for writing.
