New Zealand's Got Talent is a New Zealand reality television show which premiered in 2008. The show is based on the Got Talent series format that originated from America's Got Talent. The show originally screened on Prime for one series before being dropped. TV One later revived the show, with series produced in 2012 and 2013.

The original line-up on Prime included Andrew Mulligan and Jason Reeves as hosts, with Miriama Smith, Paul Ellis and Richard Driver as judges. After the show was revived in 2012, the show was presented by Tamati Coffey, with Ali Campbell, Rachel Hunter, and Jason Kerrison on the judging panel. Choreographer Cris Judd replaced Campbell for the show's 2013 series.

New Zealand's Got Talent is a talent show that features singers, dancers, magicians, comedians and other variety performers of all ages competing for a top prize of NZ$100,000 cash and a Toyota RAV4 car. Three judges appear on the show each week to provide feedback for the contestants.

In 2008, New Zealand broadcaster Prime Television launched a local version of the hit international show. The hosts were TV presenter Andrew Mulligan and radio host Jason Reeves, with actress Miriama Smith, former NZ Idol judge Paul Ellis and television producer and presenter Richard Driver as judges. The series had a top prize of NZ$100,000. The first episode went on air on 8 September 2008. Despite good ratings for the network, Prime was unable to outrun costs and decided not to renew the series for another season.
