It was first awarded at the 22nd Annual TV Week Logie Awards ceremony, held in 1980 and originally called Most Popular New Talent.[2] This award category was eliminated in 1999 and replaced by the Most Popular New Male Talent and Most Popular New Female Talent categories.[3] After a 15-year absence, the Most Popular New Talent category was reintroduced in 2014 to replace the gender specific categories.[4] It was briefly renamed Best New Talent (2016-2017).[5] From 2018, the award category name was reverted to Most Popular New Talent. [6]
The winner and nominees of Most Popular New Talent are chosen by the public through an online voting survey on the TV Week website.[7] Neighbours and Home and Away have the most recipients of this award, with four wins each.
