The 50th Annual TV Week Logie Awards was held on Sunday 4 May 2008 at the Crown Palladium in Melbourne, and broadcast on the Nine Network.[1] For the first time in the Logie Awards 50-year history, there was no host for the ceremony, but only a series of presenters.[2] Also for the first time, the public were able to vote online for the "Most Popular" categories without needing to buy a copy of TV Week.[3] The nominations were announced on 7 April 2008.[4] Hamish Blake and Andy Lee were the backstage hosts, while Jules Lund, Livinia Nixon and Shelley Craft were the red carpet arrivals hosts.[5]
