Logie roll call begins

Voting to determine the Logie finalists is underway, with an expanded list from TV Week. But who didn't make the first cut?

logies21Voting recently opened for the TV Week Logie Awards, with magazine readers and online voters able to help select the finalists in several key categories.

The roll call appears to have expanded on its 2008 list, in a positive step. A year ago TV Tonight noted some glaring ommissions in list of available nominees (including Shaun Micallef, Paul McDermott, Ray Meagher, Ian Smith, Tom Oliver, Livinia Nixon, Stephen Curry and more).

While the list is now more comprehensive it still lacks some names and shows that deserve their shot. It’s a shame it doesn’t allow a blank “OTHER” Category.

  1. I fully enjoy the TodayT.V- morning show with Carl and Lisa. They really are so professional and yet both have a very good sense of humor. I salute Carl for going and did the Christchurch disaste, one could see all the despair and strain on everybodys faces and yet Carl remain professional in reporting and kept his cool. Coming back to Lisa, oh what a lady, her elegance and charm, yet capturing the humor and sadness in everyday situation.

    I strongly vote that these amazingly professional T.V hosts for the Today Morning Show get the 2011 Logies awards, well done to you too.

  2. yeah Erik Thomson is on.. as long as Rebecca Gibney and Jolene doesn’t win i am glad, and honestly Mark was not that good! Erik for Gold! The only good thing about Packed To The Rafters!! And Simmone for silver, she deserves it for her long work on McLeod Daughters, and please don’t let Katie win anything!! Very overrated just like Rebecca Gibney!! 🙁 🙁

  3. Margot Robbie deserves the best new talent award she has been excelent this year! Not too sure about dean geyer being nominated? Agreed that the boy that plays calum would have been much better! And again Jackie realy deserves it espesialy after the whole zeke storyline this year just heartbreaking!

  4. i agree. The Logies should have more ‘outstanding’ categories, and less ‘popular’ awards.

    And please let Kate Ritchie win nothing this year. I didn’t like her on Home and Away. lol

  5. Yeah make them all industry voted but perhaps leave a few for the public to vote on but make them the minority.

    Kenny’s World is light entertainment? More documentary IMHO.
