59th TV Week Logie Awards 2017

I would absolutely love Samuel Johnson to win Gold tonight. A very decent person and a great actor.

So, why are they announcing them before they screen? Or is the show on delay again this year?

I am assuming these are the ones that won’t get a podium announcement - so very disappointing for Gogglebox.

If they cut out all of the singing and half hour long speeches we might have time.

Also disappointing if a Best New Talent Award isn’t being handed out on stage. This was always considered one of the big ones. Also, considering last year they had three similar categories Best Male New Talent, Best Female New Talent and Most Outstanding Newcomer. And now only one presented?

The Sports Program award is rubbish anyway and should be dropped. Those shows should be part of the Light Entertainment category and Best Comedy as a separate award, away from those type of shows.

It makes those 6 seems like second-class awards. None of the viewers voted ones should be missed. They could skip some of the very subjective ones like best news coverage and public affairs report; but I’d rather all were treated equally and non was missed.

They are the two most boring moments of the night so I completely agree.

They probably wouldn’t have skipped Gogglebox if the cast was allowed to attend.

You’re like a dog with a bone on this one too. :rolling_eyes:
Just waiting for you to somehow work in a comment about The Simpsons coming back to Ten into th conversation sometime soon. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Not remotely funny.

Lisa & Karl interviewing Kochie and Sam was hilarious though.
