SF zwei (Schweizer Fernsehen 2) (English: Swiss Television Two) is a Swiss television channel run under the public SRG SSR idée suisse 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 SF 1 and SF info).
Its programming consists of local programs as well as a wide range of American prime time shows. SF zwei usually airs these in dual audio, offering the original spoken language. While SF 1 is considered to be the channel that airs more local programming, infotainment and other programs of that nature, SF zwei concentrates on airing high quality prime time shows and other more entertaining programs, including American television shows.[2]
