List of OTO Award winners and nominees

Osobnosť televíznej obrazovky (Television Screen Personality), more commonly abbreviated as OTO, was a Slovak awards show recognizing the public figures and the work of popular culture in the country. Established by Art Production Agency (APA) in 2000, the television poll-based awards were voted on by the general viewing audiences. The annual ceremonies of the accolades were screened live by the national television network RTVS, usually in March for the previous calendar year.

The categories awarded regularly, included Program, Actor, Actress, Male and Female Singer, as well two special awards; Hall of Fame and Absolute OTO.

The announcement of awards' discontinuation was announced in 2022, following negative controversies in previous years, pandemic delays, declining popularity and high production costs.

Special awards not included

With ten awards having received in main categories, Adela Vinczeová is the most successful participant in the so far history of the OTO Awards poll, making her the most voted Entertainer and Host in general. She is followed by Marcel Merčiak who has accumulated nine as trophies as Sports Commentator, while Miroslav Žbirka and Patrik Herman have each scored seven wins, these as the most favorite Male Singer and TV Journalist, respectively. Herman also holds the record for the highest number of consecutive wins per category.

Including special achievements, Vinczeová leads with fifteen wins in total, while Merčiak with twelve. Besides, he is the only winner having scored at least in two categories per year, both the special (2012) and regular (2015 – 2017). The third participant with the highest number of OTO awards in general, is Actress Zdena Studenková with eight wins.

Within multiple nominees, Žbirka himself remains the most successful to date, having earned sixteen nominations in a row to his credit, all made since the second season of the show. His runners-up are Sportscaster Lenka Čviriková with fifteen nominations, and Herman and Merčiak; the latters with fourteen nominating bids.

Other frequent winner-nominees include Jarmila Lajčáková and Petra Polnišová who both scored in three individual categories at least. While Lajčáková managed to earn her trophies in such fields as Sports Host (2000), Sports Commentator (2001) and News Host (2008), Polnišová is a single winner as Humorist (2007) and triple as Actress; mainly for Comedy.

Janko Kroner for a change, has been the only artist nominated overall in four categories through the years, once as Children's Program Host. Eventually winning twice for performing arts, eleven nominations in total make him the most nominated actor ever, being followed by fellow multiple winners or nominees such as Maroš Kramár, Emília Vášáryová and Polnišová; these with eight nominations each. Based solely on the most nominations with no competitive win, the most notable is Sports Commentator and eleven-time nominee Ján Plesník.

The youngest holder of the award is Marcel Chlpík that won now discontinued category New Actor as seven years old, the oldest actress Magda Paveleková which earned a trophy at the age of eighty-one; upon her induction into the Hall of Fame. In terms of other OTO honorees, Dušan Gabáni and Marika Gombitová are the only non-acting recipients of such award, with Gabáni becoming the first sports commentator ever or presenter as such, and Gombitová as the only music artist in general or else the youngest honoree at fifty-eight. Jozef Kroner, Július Satinský and Leona Kočkovičová have accomplished their awards in memoriam; first as a honoree, the others as regular nominees.
