oh how fascinating. Although it would be quite a different show in that event I think. But good the consideration was there, I wonder if they could revisit that. Just seemed like Neighbours would be in production and on tv forever. Sort of like the Simpsons will surely be.

If y’all haven’t watched Fisk with Kitty Flanagan, get on it! One of my fave series ever and filmed on Ethol St North Melbs 
It's on my list and on your recommendation, I'll put it to the top Bub!If y’all haven’t watched Fisk with Kitty Flanagan, get on it! One of my fave series ever and filmed on Ethol St North Melbs
Is anyone surprised to see Five Bedrooms wasn't nominated for anything?
I feel like that show has finished now - there's not really any need for another series as everything was tied up so neatly at the end of the last one. I still loved it though, and the acting was incredible.
I wonder how they come up with the nominees - is it a peoples' choice type thing? Because although I do really like Ada and Sophie from H&A, there are better deserving actresses for 'most popular' actress - even on H&A itself ("Mack" for one, who seems very popular).
I didn't see Ronnie and Georgia from The Block Fans vs Faves ... I would've expected them to have been invited given that they have quite a high profile.

Hamish and Andy did a bit with a kid called Oliver who pretended that Karl was getting him to vote thousands of times for him for a gold Logie. H&A pretended that they busted him and Oliver said the votes should be taken away from Karl and given to Sonia instead.
As I’ve gotten older I’ve turned into my Dad (RIP
) and watch heaps on ABC. Loved Fisk! Wakefield, Barons and Troppo were also awesome.Thank you! I saw that kid but I didn't pay any attention because I was Tattling
The Project won its category ... I honestly don't get that show (we have an edition of it here in NZ) ... it's a snoozefest!
We used to have A Current Affair too - it was just the same Aussie content played, with a NZ host announcing it (a bit strange) ... but that got killed off after a few months on air.

They were travelling back from Dubai today. Probably only landed in Perth in the past hour or two.
It’s my next go to watch, I keep hearing it’s great!
Gahh Neighbours got me bawling
It's amazing!!! Watch all of the series together.It’s my next go to watch, I keep hearing it’s great!
Gahh Neighbours got me bawling
I will say - and I'm probably the only person on this planet who thinks this - Steven Peacocke wasn't that great in it. I feel his role would have been better played by a newcomer. I can only ever think of him as "Brax".
Only just turned on. Pesky kids. Girl in plain black dress back on page 2 I think it was is the girl who had baby and didn’t know she was preg in Stan’s bump. I hope melissa wins gold. 5 bedrooms has another season to come.
Surprised Roger Corser didn't win that category

Patti Newton pays tribute to her husband Bert
By Meg Watson
After a joyful and loving video tribute to Bert Newton, his wife and partner of 57 years, Patti Newton, enters the stage to a standing ovation.
“This beautiful man of mine,” she says, gesturing to the screen. “Isn’t he fabulous? What am I going to do without him?”
After his passing in October last year, Patti says it’s all “still very raw” and she wasn’t sure she would be able to speak tonight. But ultimately, she felt compelled to attend the event her husband loved so much.
“He absolutely loved [the Logies]. This was his baby … He had this thing where he’d say not everyone lives their dream. But he did. And he loved it.”
Patti also presented the award for most popular presenter, now named in her late husband’s honour, to Hamish Blake: “If I could ask him about this award being named in his honour,” she said, “I’m absolutely certain that he would said ‘What? Not the gold then?’”
The Lego Masters host said he was honoured to take “one step in Bert’s enormous shadow”. The win also seems like a good omen for Blake, who is widely tipped to take the gold as well.
Ohhhh ... do you know when?

Tony Armstrong gets his first Logie
By Meg Watson
He got it! As expected, Tony Armstrong has taken home the Graham Kennedy Award for most popular new talent.
Armstrong has been a sensation over the past year or so, both on TV and all over the internet. It was only earlier this week that his on-air celebrations of the Socceroos making it through to the world cup went viral – which no doubt helped him with the public voting for this category.
In his speech, Armstrong thanked his mum and everyone who’s taken a chance on him – including the National Indigenous Radio Service, where he got his start calling footy games before becoming an on-air sports broadcaster.
“If I hadn’t started out calling football, I wouldn’t have ended up here at the ABC,” he said.
He also used the moment to send a quick message to Justin Stevens, the ABC’s new director of news: “Contract negotiations, mate,” he said, pointing to the award. “We’re on.”
It was a fun joke. But also… he’s not wrong. Armstrong is a hugely exciting new talent – which is especially refreshing considering how static and familiar so much of Australian TV can be. He deserves a pay rise, at the very least.
Vibe check: what’s it like in the room at the Logies?
By Karl Quinn
I don’t know how much of this comes across in the telecast, but inside the room you get a real sense of the mood whenever an award is announced or a presenter takes the stage.
If you’ve been watching at home, you may not know, for instance, that the MAFS people have been and gone. At one ad break – which serves as a toilet break for the invited guests – the table of 10 rose as one and headed off. Synchronised bladders? An impromptu key party? The smart money says it’s common practice: the reality peeps are invited to stay until their category has been called, then it’s time to leave while everyone is still on their best behaviour.
The cameras – or rather the microphones – surely did pick up the chilling silence that greeted Tom Gleeson as he took the stage with Sophie Monk to present an award. Lots of people thought his irony-driven win of the gold in 2019 was hilarious, a stroke of performance-art genius. It’s safe to say not many of those people are in the room tonight.
The anger many evidently still feel towards Gleeson whittled away a little by the end of his routine with Monk (who made an excellent sparring partner), but was there a lingering antipathy that spilled over when Guy Pearce was announced as the most popular actor? Certainly there was an audible gasp.
No such downer vibes for Tony Armstrong, Sam Pang – doubling for Kitty Flanagan, and hailed by voiceover man Tony Martin as “Australia’s most popular actress” – or Bruce McAvaney and Patti Newton, both of whom drew standing ovations.
Bruce’s speech did go on a bit, though. For a moment, it looked like he was going to do an entire history of broadcasting.
