SRF zwei (English: Swiss Radio and Television Two) is a Swiss television channel run under the public SRG SSR broadcasting group.
The channel was launched in 1997 as 'SF 2', originally only to offer SF 1 programming in later hours. It subsequently became a youth-oriented channel, airing programs oriented to a teen audience, such as American TV shows. It is the second of the three national German-language channels in Switzerland (the others being SRF 1 and SRF info).
Its programming consists of local programs as well as a wide range of American prime time shows. SRF zwei usually airs these in dual audio, offering the original spoken language. While SRF 1 is considered to be the channel that airs more local programming, infotainment and other programs of that nature, SRF zwei concentrates on airing high quality prime time shows and other more entertaining programs, including American television shows.
