The third season of the Dutch talent show Holland's Got Talent was broadcast from July 9, 2010, to September 10, 2010, on RTL 4.
This was the first season to be broadcast on RTL 4 (previous seasons were broadcast on SBS6) and therefore it had a different presenter and two new judging panel members. The presenter was Robert ten Brink, who replaced Gerard Joling from the previous years.Robert ten Brink nieuwe presentator Holland's Got Talent Mediacourant, 3 mei 2010 After it was announced that Holland's Got Talent was going to RTL 4 and that Patricia Paay was staying on the panel as a judge, there was much speculation about who would be the other panelists. Names such as Albert Verlinde, Paay's ex-husband Adam Curry and Jacques d'Ancona were mentioned. Paay immediately made it clear that he did not want to work with d'Ancona, since he allegedly made indecent comments about Paay.Patricia Paay wil Jacques d’Ancona niet in jury ‘Got Talent’ Mediacourant, 20 mei 2010 It was eventually announced that the two other panellists alongside Paay were Gordon Heuckeroth and Dan Karaty.Gordon en Dan Karaty in jury Holland's Got Talent Zappen, 10 juni 2010.

There was also a rivalry between Holland's Got Talent and the SBS6 talent show Popstars, (on which Patricia Paay had previously been a member of the panel) both being broadcast at the same time. However, the HGT judges and presenter Robert ten Brink made sure not to talk negatively about the rival show when asked about it in the media. Former judging panel member Henkjan Smits did congratulate RTL 4 after having a well received and highly viewed final for the show on September 10.Henkjan Smits feliciteert concurrent Holland's Got Talent Mediacourant, 11 September 2010
The first live show was broadcast on August 13, 2010. After much speculation from the media (including De Telegraaf),'Martin wint Holland's Got Talent' Telegraaf, 10 September 2010 the show was eventually won by Martin Hurkens.Elastic Double verliest Holland's Got Talent, operazanger Martin Hurkens wint Zappen, 10 September 2010 Gordon told him that he could place himself next to Paul Potts and Susan Boyle (famous winners of the British counterpart of the show, Britain's Got Talent).
Auditions The auditions took place in May and June and were all held in one theatre. During the auditions, 64 acts were deemed live show worthy, however this was exactly double what could actually go through. The judges then deliberated which 32 acts could go through to the live shows. Since the judges couldn't decide on their outcome, seven acts were made to audition a second time, and as a result of this, three more acts made it into the final 32.
Semi-finals The act with the most votes earns a place in the final. From the two acts that come second and third, the judges will choose one more that will also go to the final. Each judge has their own vote that they can cast on one of the two acts.
