The nominees for the 2026 TV Week Logie Awards have been revealed with presenters, programs, and actors across free-to-air and streaming TV in Australia celebrated for their achievements throughout the past year.
As one of the largest producers of original programming in Australia, the ABC has the most nominated programs under its belt, but it’s worth noting other channels and streaming services are also pulling their weight.
Prime Video is the most-nominated streaming service overall, thanks to the release of the Jacob Elordi-starring The Narrow Road to the Deep North – for which Elordi has been nominated as Best Lead Actor in a Drama. Paramount+ has also been nominated several times via Ghosts spin-off, Ghosts Australia.
