I’m angry. That was Simmone’s last chance to win a gold Logie! It was McLeod’s’ last chance to win a Logie! And Gibney, Rebecca Gibney won. Not happy!!!

I’m happy that Denton is up for the Gold and Popular Presenter, but where’s his show (Enough Rope) in the Light Entertainment Program section? And I thought that Wil Anderson / The Gruen Transfer would be up for nominations

And didn’t All Saints beat Neighbours and McLeod’s Daughters in the ratings? Yet, it’s not nominated for a Most Popular Drama award. Strage, hey?

“Last night Julie and Dave Rafter, Australia television’s favourite new mum and dad, decided to keep the baby.”

I don’t watch the show, but I gather they were thinking of having an abortion?

I completely understand David, and I’ve got no problem with your site policy on spoilers. It was just in this case I couldn’t tell it was a PTTR story simply from the title, which is all I see in my RSS feed dropdown in Firefox.

No major drama – it’s nothing like the times when newsgroup trolls revealed the ending of the first season of 24, or several seasons of The Amazing Race and Survivor – in the subject line itself!

I think Jodi Gordon had an outstanding year on H&A last year, with the cancer storyline. She really excelled, and i hope she gets a nomination, at least, for Best Female Talent- Silver Logie.

I hope Packed to the Rafters wins Best TV Show, but i think Underbelly might take that out. It’ll be tight.

Oh well, I dont really care for who wins, mostly just the glitz and glamour. Hopefully we see a fashion success on the red carpet as we saw at The Academy Awards this year

There are never easy answers to spoilers. So the best method is to be consistent so that readers know how the site operates before choosing whether to visit.

The practice is therefore very simple: if a show has aired in Aus it is no longer considered a spoiler on this site.

Even when we have the winner of Dance, Idol, Dancing with Stars aired on the East Coast but not on the West Coast it is no longer a spoiler. Why? Because other sites are reporting it. It’s news. I can’t run a dedicated TV site that lags behind other sites which freely publishing the info, because some people choose to modify their viewing. I absolutely hold off info on Eurovision winners (which are always known by midday) until it airs on the East Coast.

Spoilers and Minor Spoiler alerts continue for shows that have not aired.

Yes, I meant the reveal of the conclusion to last night’s episode right at the top of a post that, from its title, could have been about anything. Even if it was in the second paragraph after an opening indicating the post was about PTTR, that would have warned me off in time.

I’m sure I’m not the only one who records shows on my PVR when I’m out and watches them later. If I had to avoid TV Tonight in case of unexpected spoilers on shows I’ve got queued up to watch, I’d never read the site again. And I don’t want to do that.

well everyone seems to love rebecca gibney; men, women, old, young. she is the whole package warm, talented, relatable, humble, great personality. there aren’t really any other standout performances this year. Last year kate and chris had me guessing till the last minute.

You forgot Review with Myles Barlow in the comedy category. It was cut to the bone funny. But clearly, since you overlooked it, the Logies will be sure to as well.

I reckon Natalia Bassinthwaite (Ms Eddy Everywhere) will have to at least get a Gold Logie Nomination. I’m quite a fan though, so that would not be a bad thing. But I agree with Rebecca Gibney being a hot tip to win it – she is such a great actress and has such a warmth in the show that viewers all over would lover her.

well my hot contender for gold would definitely be rebecca, andrew denton might be her closest competitor.

i would also like to see some of the city homicides get a mention. noni and shane have been great this season and they have both won AFI’s so the old people in the offices like them

Rush for Most Outstanding Drama
Margot Robbie for Most Popular Female Talent
Ashley Zuckerman for Most Popular Male Talent

Jack, Rush is deserving. Its an amazing show.

I wuld like to see Andrew Denton up for a gold and for best presenter.

I think that the male and female new talest awards be combined as the one, as there’s not enough ‘new talent’ going around. I dont want to see people like Dean Geyer being nominated! lol

I would like to see ‘Very Small Busniess’ and ‘Swift and Shift Couriers’ up for nomination for Outstanding Comedy

Most Outstanding categories are clearly the most prestigious and only ‘real’ awards.

My vote is for:

Most Outstanding Drama: Underbelly
Most Outstanding Comedy: Bogan Pride

The ‘Best New Talent’ categories this year are a complete joke.
