TV 2 HD
TV 2 started broadcasting in high-definition on June 25, 2009. Initially, the channel was only available on the terrestrial RiksTV platform. The first programme broadcast in HD was Allsang på grensen. Other broadcasts in HD during 2009 include Tour de France, Friday and Saturday movies, Sunday night football, Jakten på kjærligheten, Da damene dro, Skal vi danse and American series such as Grey's Anatomy, Cleaners, Scrubs, Brothers & Sisters, Modern Family and Criminal Minds. They also produce original programming, including the award-winning show Gylne tider.
When a programme isn't native HD, it is upscaled to 1080i. Programmes shot with 4:3 aspect ratio get black bars on the sides, so called pillarbox.
