Out of the Blue gets 'underrated' nomination... and more

Finally, some (kind of) positive Out of the Blue news to share from Australia.

The show has picked up two nominations for The Sun Herald's Bogie Awards, described as "the hall of shame for television's most annoying, embarrassing and underrated programs and personalities".

That's terrible, you might say. But thankfully Out of the Blue has been spared the further blow of appearing in the rubbish categories, and instead is nominated for Most Underrated and Most Jerked Around By The Networks.

In the Most Underrated category, it appears alongside the fine company of 30 Rock, Good Game, Prison Break, Dexter, Review by Miles Barlow, The Einstein Factor, In Treatment, ABC2 News Breakfast, Eli Stone and Rush.

In the Most Jerked Around By The Networks category, it's up against 24, Without A Trace, CSI: Miami, Scrubs, Cold Case, ER and Ugly Betty.

If you want to vote for Out of the Blue, you can do so using the site's comments section here. Please note that you're required to vote in each category, not just the ones which feature Out of the Blue.

It's unlikely that the show will win, but there's no harm in voting. In any case, it's good to see that Ten's abysmal treatment of Out of the Blue hasn't gone completely unnoticed in Australia.
