The Silver Logie for Best Drama Program is an award presented annually at the Australian TV Week Logie Awards, to recognise an Australian drama production. It was first awarded at the 19th Annual TV Week Logie Awards, held in 1977 when the award was originally called Most Popular Australian Drama. Over the years, it has also been known as Most Popular Drama (1978, 1986, 1988), Most Popular Drama Series (1979–1984, 1987, 1991, 2008–2013), Most Popular Drama Program (1985, 2014–15), and Most Popular Australian Drama Series (2004–2005). For the 2016 ceremony, the award was renamed Best Drama Program.

The winner and nominees of Most Popular Drama Program are chosen by the public through an online voting survey on the TV Week website. This award category was eliminated in 1989, but was reintroduced in 1991, only to be eliminated again the following year. It later returned in 1994 for three years. After a seven-year absence, the category was reintroduced in 2004. Home and Away holds the record for the most wins, with six, followed by Packed to the Rafters with four wins.
