Logies 2025 - My Picks

Yesterday, The Logies nominations were announced. Here is my yearly tradition of "My Picks" in Red + BOLD, let's see how I go. 

The ABC plus streaming (particularly Netflix's Apple Cider Vinegar) did exceptionally well with the nominations yesterday.

Stan were the real streaming losers with very few nominations across multiple shows. Randomly US series Good Cop/Bad Cop got a few more nods than the final run of Bump or the recent gay drama Invisible Boys. Was Ten Pound Poms, Scrublands and Black Snow all released too late too?

Binge did well with the return of crowd favourite Colin From Accounts, which luckily has already been renewed for a third season. The Twelve also scored a couple of nods.

Voting is now open, so get cracking people! The ceremony will be broadcast on Sunday, August 3. A little earlier than last year.

Here we go, my picks below!
