Good on them.
The fact that no one from Neighbours will be presenting at the Logies in its 30th year is a disgrace.
Nine, shame on you.
Between the debate over so few women in the Hall of Fame and the Neighbours snub, this could be an interesting night to tune in to see what all this leads to.
How is it a disgrace. Neighbours used to be a joke. Now it’s ratings are so low the vast majority wouldn’t even get the joke.
When I saw this article’s headline I thought Nine had changed their minds. I’m still hoping one of Ten’s presenters at the Logies will mention the show.
Why were these two overlooked for the Logies escapes me…..apart from the fact that is a nine network show.
About the only Nine show I will watch as when they start a series it goes for a few weeks then either gets dropped or changed umpteen times. What happened to Gotham ?
