Got Talent

Supertalent is a Croatian reality television talent show series. It is a Croatian iteration of the British talent show Got Talent whose authors are Simon Cowell and Ken Warwick.

The series debuted on 25 September 2009 on Nova TV. Ten seasons have aired so far with an eleventh season currently running.

Format

[edit]

Supertalent has five big auditions in the Croatian cities of Split, Rijeka, Zadar, Zagreb, and Osijek.[1] In the auditions stage, the contestant present their talents to the judges. The judges then vote on whether or not the contestant was good enough to qualify for the next round. Each of the judges, as well as the hosts and the audience, can use one golden buzzer (Croatian: zlatni gumb) to allow their favorite contestant an immediate qualification to the semi finals.

After the auditions, there is a semi final and a final show where the public choose one winner. The current main prize is 30,000 euros.

Hosts and judges

[edit]

The series was initially hosted by Rene Bitorajac and Igor Mešin. Bitorajac was replaced by Frano Ridjan starting in season 7,[2] whereas Mešin remained the host for the entirety of the series.

The current members of the jury are Davor Bilman (dancer and former Ples sa zvijezdama judge), Fabijan Pavao Medvešek (television actor), Maja Šuput (pop singer), and Martina Tomčić (opera singer).
