The channel aired the 10th season from 20 September 2010 to 25 October 2010, showing 2 episodes each day of the week and repeating the 10 episodes shown on workweek in the weekend. Notably, this version had fixed some audio errors in the dub, along with replacing select lines from the original dub with ones of the new actors, which were presumed by the fans to be tests for the new voice cast. Midway through the airing of the 10th season, the channel started a promotion campaign of their new ownership of the series, conducting a contest in which 70 winners would win two tickets to a first-hand premiere of [[DP053]] and [[DP054]] in cinemas. There were two premieres: one in Lisbon (40 winners) and one in Porto (30 winners). Both premieres were held on 23 October 2010, with the winners notified two days earlier. | The channel aired the 10th season from 20 September 2010 to 25 October 2010, showing 2 episodes each day of the week and repeating the 10 episodes shown on workweek in the weekend.
