Black Reel Award for Outstanding Director, TV Movie or Limited Series

Annual US television award From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This article lists the winners and nominees for the Black Reel Award for Outstanding Director of a Television Movie or Limited Series. The category was retired during the 2008 ceremony, and then later returned in 2013. In May 2017 the category was moved from the film awards as part of the Black Reel Awards for Television honors thus resulting in two separate winners in 2017.
