TV’s night of nights is just hours away and while the race is still open for stars — with voting closing later on Sunday — it’s also a great chance for viewers to suss out shows they may have missed over the past year.
The 65th Annual TV Week Logie Awards features a particularly stacked field of nominees — especially when it comes to that coveted Gold Logie, with more women in contention for the top gong than ever before.
Will it be one of the newcomers like Poh Ling Yeow, Ally Langdon or Lisa Millar? Or will perennial favourite Lynne McGranger take it home for her stellar 33-year run on Home And Away?
Here’s our form guide of nominees and tips for winners.
Clare’s pick: Lynne McGranger
She was on Home And Away for a record-breaking 33 years before retiring earlier this year — surely McGranger deserves to go out with Aussie TV’s highest honour? She’ll have stiff competition from perennial favourite Hamish Blake and Muster Dog wrangler Lisa Millar.
Clare’s pick: Hamish Blake
Ricki-Lee is fast becoming a favourite reality TV host and Zan Rowe will always have our heart, but something tells us it could be another gong for last year’s winner, Hamish Blake.
Clare’s pick: Guy Montgomery
How do you spell dark horse? This is a close race, but Guy Montgomery has broken through the noise with his hilarious new panel show and this is his to lose.
Clare’s pick: Sam Neill
While Robert Taylor and Michael Dorman’s emotional performances in Territory both packed a punch, Sam Neill’s Brett Colby QC continues to be one of Aussie TV’s best-drawn characters — Neill is our frontrunner.
Clare’s pick: Kaitlyn Dever
OK, so she’s not technically one of “ours”, but US actor Kaitlyn Dever delivered a knock-out performance in Apple Cider Vinegar and deserves a nomination. Bonus points for that superb Aussie accent.
Clare’s pick: Michael Theo
Ever since he first hit screens via Love On The Spectrum, we’ve known Michael Theo was destined for big things. He’s phenomenal as the title character in Austin. A shoo-in.
Clare’s pick: Kitty Flanagan
It’s hard to overestimate just how popular Kitty Flanagan’s ABC comedy is both here and overseas — she should get a nod for a second year in a row for Fisk.
Clare’s pick: Ashley Zukerman
Zukerman’s portrayal as Belle Gibson’s trusting husband was truly devastating to watch — he deserves this one. Honorary mention to Matt Nable, who was also terrific in the Netflix series.
Clare’s pick: Michelle Lim Davidson
Another stacked field with some heavy-hitting comedy icons in the mix, but credit where it’s due to Michelle Lim Davidson, who brought the character of Noeline to life and won hearts in The Newsreader.
Clare’s pick: Bump
Both Bump and The Newsreader impressed with their final seasons, but my money is on Bump, which packed an emotional punch with a devastating and nuanced last run.
Clare’s pick: Apple Cider Vinegar
Paramount Plus’ Fake and the Binge telemovie How To Make Gravy were both terrific, but Apple Cider Vinegar has to take this one out purely because of its impact and reach — audiences all around the world connected with this very Aussie story.
Clare’s pick: Dancing With The Stars
Much as I’d love to see ABC’s superb New Year’s Eve concert coverage take this one out, perennial favourite Dancing With The Stars has the crowd on its side.
Clare’s pick: Australian Story
Australian Story has been on air almost 30 years, but it remains just as relevant. This year the show has had some great profiles — who could forget the episode featuring international meme stars The Twinnies?
Clare’s pick: Austin
Fisk is a definite frontrunner in this category, though there are some worthy contenders, and Austin might just steal it as a first-time sentimental favourite. Colin From Accounts might take this one out again, but our money’s on newcomer Austin.
Clare’s pick: Have You Been Paying Attention
Have You Been Paying Attention took it out last year, and something tells us this crowd favourite will win over voters again this time around.
Clare’s pick: Australian Survivor: Brains V Brawn II
With Jonathan LaPaglia exiting the show later this year, we’d love to see him pick up one last gong for Brains V Brawn II — it’s the least audiences could do to honour his legacy.
Clare’s pick: Muster Dogs: Collies & Kelpies
Sentimental favourite Muster Dogs deserves this one, though it’ll have some stiff competition from MAFS, which smashed it in the ratings again this year.
Clare’s pick: Restoration Australia
Travel Guides took this one out last year and could well make it two-for-two, but Restoration Australia delivered a strong season and deserves to take this one out.
Clare’s pick: Bluey
We feel for the other contenders in this category — Bluey HAS to take this one out, surely? All are worthy contenders, particularly long-running Play School and the lovely Ginger And The Vegesaurs.
Clare’s pick: Ally Langdon
She’s nominated for Gold, and it’s not hard to imagine she could pick up this one as well, due to her tremendous popularity with ACA audiences.
