Pilipinas Got Talent is a Filipino reality talent competition show on ABS-CBN network that began on February 20, 2010. It is based on the Got Talent franchise, a British TV format conceived and owned by Simon Cowell's SYCO company. "Pilipinas" is the Filipino word for Philippines. Anyone can join and showcase their talents in the audition. At the sound of three buzzers from the judges, the auditionees are asked to stop their act. With at least two yes from the judges, they are automatically in the list for Judges Cull, where judges have to pick only 36 acts that will move to the semi-finals. Acts will compete against each other in order to gain the audience support to win the prize money and the title of Pilipinas Got Talent winner.
ABS-CBN acquired the Got Talent franchise, advertising it as "the first nationwide talent reality show in the Philippines," although other talent shows from other networks are aired with a similar format, such as Talentadong Pinoy on TV5.
Viewers are able to join through text and online registration via Internet. Auditions are held in key cities such as Manila, Baguio, Batangas, Cebu, Davao and Cagayan de Oro.
The first season premiered on February 20, 2010 on ABS-CBN and ended on June 13, 2010. A second and a third season aired back to back in 2011. The fourth season aired in 2013, with the fifth one airing two and a half years later in 2016.
To date, there have been five winners: Jovit Baldivino, Marcelito Pomoy, the Maasinhon Trio, Roel Manlangit, and the Power Duo. The four are singing acts while the fifth is an interpretative dance duo. The winner of each season receives two million pesos.
