Logie 2012 voting opens

TV Week opens voting for the 2012 Logies, and here's who you can choose from for the Popular categories.

Voting is now open on the 2012 Logie Awards.

TV Week is now accepting votes across 11 Popular categories.

Online voting is available at their website via extensive lists of potential nominees. In recent years these lists have expanded significantly, although they still don’t offer an “Other” if your favourite has been left off the list.

All those individuals eligible for Silver Logies are automatically eligible for the Gold Logie, but if they have been left off the shortlists, they are already out of the running.

If your favourite has already missed out, let us know who it is?

The 2012 Logie Awards will be held at Crown in Melbourne on April 15th and screened on Nine.

  1. How about less cooking crap and reality TV and allow some Artistic shows on our teleies,such as Graeme Stevensons ‘Colour In Your Life’,the more how to paint and draw shows on tele the better.

  2. I am also wondering why Hamish Michael who plays Richard Stirling in Crownies has not been nominated in the Popular New Talent category, as in my opinion he is very deserving of this award.

  3. @David Knox. Irrespective if there were” too many” uniform based dramas, viewers across the globe watched and liked them. Rescue, rush and sea patrol are well received in the uk and further afield yet tv companies fail to listen to their viewers and keep axing them! In the words of jo horsburgh,” whilst their still going strong”!!

  4. @Nik C we agree completely! Pretty pathetic that all these shows are getting nominations and subsequent awards for being so ‘outstanding’ …but apparently not outstanding enough to continue on tv?? Oh, Australian TV, you realise this effectively says you primarily renew crap, yes?

    Well said @Isiebeau, would be great to see Spirited get a Logie or two.

  5. @ Stan
    I stopped buying TV week long ago because of the constant spoiling of stoylines in both local soaps and US dramas. So I agree that it has little relevance to many!

  6. I realise the ABC are investing in Auyssie drama and 9 and 10 have new dramas in the pipeline but I lookat rhe current Most Popular Drama’s and there are not many being renewed. See my list below:
    Blood Brothers (one off film)
    Cloudstreet (one off mini series)
    Crownies (axed/ not renewed)
    East West 101(axed)
    Home And Away (continuing)
    Neighbours (continuing)
    Offspring (continuing)
    Packed To The Rafters(continuing)
    Paper Giants: The Birth Of Cleo (one off mini series)
    Rescue Special Ops (axed)
    Rush (axed)
    Sea Patrol (axed)
    SLiDE (unknown renewal)
    Spirited (axed)
    The Slap (one off mini series)
    Underbelly Files: Infiltration (one off mini series)
    Underbelly Files: Tell Them Lucifer Was Here (one off mini series)
    Underbelly Files: The Man Who Got Away (one off mini series)
    Underbelly: Razor (another spin-off)
    Wild Boys (axed)
    Winners & Losers (continuing)

    Also why is there not a Drama series and mini series/film category? Isn’t this split for Most Outstanding?

    Networks some of these shows axed were popular and critically respected. I think it is sad there is less continuing drama where viewers invest time and emotion into characters lives!

    1. MiniSeries and Telemovies will be eligible in the Outstanding peer-voted categories. Shows always have a life expectancy, so I don’t adhere to the theory we only renew crap. Most of the series that ended were linked by procedural / action (Rush, Sea Patrol, Rescue, City Homicide, EW 101) and there was fatigue over so many uniforms at once. Underbelly will chalk up 5 seasons next year and still rating well.

  7. I think RSO should get some recognition. I know you Australians will disagree but it has a growing fanbase in the uk,Ireland and us/ Canada via the Internet just a shame channel 9 didn’t see that. Also Andrew lees is a great actor and will go far.

  8. John from Sunny Coast, count me as another moron who still buys TV Week! I’d be lost without David Stratton’s excellent Free-To-Air & Pay television movie reviews & star-ratings. Because of that, I guess I’m another one of those brainless readers who need to keep up with all the latest Home & Away/Neighbours gossip.

  9. David is it true that a network can only submit a certain number of people or programs for each category? Seems a bit silly when SBS and ABC have so many documentary and light entertainment programs. Again it’s ridiculous not to have a popular comedy program.

  10. All the cast from ”Swift and Shift Couriers” and ”Housos” are ommitted too from the acting catergories.

    Barry Cassidy is once again not listed for Presenter (for his roles on Insiders and Offsiders). Speaking of Offsiders, it hasn’t been listed for Sports Catergory once since it began in 2005. A shame really

    @ Tim – i agree with you. I don’t know why sporting coverage is now included into the Sports Program section. I find it strange too. I’m happy though to see Cycling Central and it’s host Mike Tomalaris listed or a change

    No Ben Elton anywhere? Boo hoo! 😉

  11. Pffft Logies, what a meaningless award and an embarrassment for the industry. When’s the AFI Awards. They have some prestige to them. Logies are pathetic. It was already that way, but then Karl won a Gold and well that killed the last bit of dignity the Logies had

  12. Hamish Michael as Richard Stirling, Andrea Demetriades as Lina Badir in Crownies both missed out on new talent & Popular categories! Both deserved a New Talent option!!
