Home and Away receives six Logie nominations while Neighbours is snubbed
The Ramsay Street soap gets no nominations in its final year.
Home and Away has received six nominations in Australia's 2022 Logie Awards, but Neighbours has amassed no nominations in its final year.
Fans of the Ramsay Street soap might be left disappointed at the snub having expected the beloved show to gain recognition as it prepares to come off air forever in August.
For Home and Away, it secured a nomination for Most Popular Drama Program among its six nods.

Neighbours runs on a relatively small channel, 10 Peach, in Australia and is often overlooked at the Logies. Its last Logies win came in 2005, when Natalie Blair won Most Popular New Female Talent.
Though no Logie is on the horizon, Neighbours fans have a lot to look forward as the show prepares to air its final ever episodes, with Jason Donovan and Kylie Minogue set to reprise their iconic roles as Scott and Charlene.
The soap's final cast photo was recently shared, paying tribute to the "Class of 2022".

Earlier this year, it was announced that the Ramsay Street soap was officially ending its 37-year run after Channel 5 decided to drop it from its schedule and following a failure to find new funding.
A spokesperson for production company Fremantle said at the time: "It is with sadness that after nearly 37 years and almost 9,000 episodes broadcast, we are confirming that Neighbours will cease production in the summer."
Neighbours airs weekdays at 1.45pm and 6pm on Channel 5 and streams on My5. In Australia, the show airs Mondays to Thursdays at 6.30pm on 10 Peach and streams on 10 Play.
