'Best Supporting Actor' and 'Best Supporting Actress' have been created, and the 'Comedy Performance' category will divide in two to recognise both 'Female' and 'Male Performance in a Comedy Programme'.
Additionally, the ceremony has moved to a new summer date, Sunday, 6 June, at The London Palladium.
"We are delighted to be introducing these changes for 2010," said chairman of the television committee John Willis. "As a Committee, we annually review all categories to ensure the ceremony is relevant to, and reflects, the industry’s output, and these additional categories do exactly that.
"Moreover, our move to June provides a more distinct place in the awards calendar for television and allows more time between them and February’s Orange British Academy Film Awards for our members, industries and viewers."
2010 will also see the introduction of a new system available to BAFTA members voting in both 'Television' and 'Craft Awards' to view all entries online.
