Who doesn’t love a hi-energy Logies number?
In 1987 TEN was the host broadcaster with Don Lane as compere.
Somebody thought it would be a good idea to sing each of the network theme songs.
Here’s Michael Cormick with some exited big-hair dancers.

Enjoyed watching the Friday Flashback and thought my how times have changed.
The good old days when the Logies had hi-energy numbers… and hosts. Sure, these numbers may be daggy now, but at least they were catchy and entertaining.
Fantastic production number, Michael is such a reliable song and dance man. An awards show is not complete without a production number like this.
Great clip David. Gotta love a tv jingle!!!
I’m surprised they weren’t the Tony Bartuccio dancers.
Be sure to see the opening song and dance number to that Logies. Missed cues, Denise Drysdale snubbed, steely looks from the host, a site gag from Daryl Somers and Kerri-Anne with the largest and shiniest shoulder pads you could imagine! Peak 1980s!

Excitement!
Gosh. Even SBS had a theme song in the 80’s. What a time to be alive.
Is it true that this basically gave 9 the idea to reintroduce Still the One as their campaign for many years after this
Quite possibly I reckon. It even gets applause halfway through the set, and clearly is the standout jingle of the lot. Still the One is one of the best tv jingles ever!
