There was no Koch, Wilkinson or Kidman among the Logie nominations but not all veterans of the Australian television industry missed out.
After more than 35 years A Current Affair host Tracy Grimshaw is in the running for her first Gold Logie.
"I still can't quite believe it. I never quite imagined myself in this space," she told AAP.
"It's a great honour and it's a thrill, and it's a pleasure."
The nominations for the TV Week Logie awards on July 1 were announced on Sunday at The Star on the Gold Coast, which will host the ceremony for the first time.
The Ten Network's Amanda Keller and Grant Denyer, actors Jessica Marais and Rodger Corser, and lifestyle presenter Andrew Winter are also in the race for the Gold.
But the nominations list was also notable for who and what missed out - including Nicole Kidman who was overlooked for her role in Foxtel's Top of the Lake: China Girl.
Her co-star, American actress Elisabeth Moss, has been nominated for most outstanding actress.
None of the big breakfast TV names - Karl Stefanovic, David Koch, Sam Armytage and Georgie Gardner, nor Lisa Wilkinson - has scored a nomination.
The Today Show and Sunrise also missed out, but Wilkinson's new show, The Project, has been nominated in the most popular entertainment program category.
