==Programming== DR2 has become famous for its daily satirical TV shows, which were established due to the success of such programmes on Danish television.<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Bruun |first=Hanne |date=January 2012 |title=Political Satire in Danish Television: Reinventing a Tradition |url=http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/15405702.2012.638568 |journal=Popular Communication |language=en |volume=10 |issue=1-2 |pages=158–169 |doi=10.1080/15405702.2012.638568 |issn=1540-5702|url-access=subscription }}</ref> It resembles the British [[BBC Four]] because its main output is experimental comedy, documentaries and in-depth news programmes. It has earned much praise for high-quality shows, especially in the first category, with series like ''[[Casper & Mandrilaftalen]]'' and ''[[Drengene fra Angora]]''. ''[[Den 11. time]]'' was a [[talk show]] on the channel. It also broadcasts many [[United Kingdom|British]] productions, e.g. crime dramas such as ''[[Prime Suspect]]''. On Saturdays, DR2 broadcasts the [[Greenlandic language|Greenlandic-language]] news bulletin {{lang|da|Nyheder fra Grønland}}, produced by [[Kalaallit Nunaata Radioa|KNR]].<ref>[http://www.dr.dk/NETTV/Nyheder+fra+Gr%C3%B8nland/2009/10/03/20091003150828.htm DR2]</ref> Between 8 and 10:30 pm on Wednesdays, various European thriller series are aired. Every Friday at 8 pm, a rather recently produced film is aired. A classic film is broadcast on late Sunday afternoons (ending at 8 pm), typically from the late 1960s until the mid-1990s. The news programme, called ''Deadline'', airs at 10:30 pm and differs from DR 1's ''[[TV Avisen]]'' in just giving a brief overview of today's events, usually followed by two news that are treated more deeply. DR2 is sometimes used as "Breaking News", but only when called for. The channel also covers societal issues and various types of society-related debates. ===Original programming=== * {{lang|da|Vesterbro}} — comedy * {{lang|da|Deadline}} <ref name="luften den"/> — news * {{lang|da|So ein Ding}} — about new technical products * {{lang|da|Filmperler}} — quality films from all countries * {{lang|da|TV TV TV}} — television about television * {{lang|da|Rytteriet}} — Danish comedy * {{lang|da|Bonderøven}} — later moved to [[DR1]] following the show's success * {{lang|da|Jul på Vesterbro}} — Danish Christmas comedy (broadcast between 1 and 24 December) === Imported programming === As is the practice with most other television channels in Denmark, foreign programmes are shown in their original language but with Danish subtitles. * ''[[Columbo]]'' * ''[[Waking the Dead (TV series)|Waking the Dead]]'' * ''[[Above Suspicion (TV drama)|Above Suspicion]]'' * ''[[Hamish Macbeth (TV series)|Hamish Macbeth]]'' * ''[[Wycliffe (TV series)|Wycliffe]]'' * ''[[Spooks (TV series)|Spooks]]'' * ''[[The Body Farm (TV series)|The Body Farm]]'' * ''[[Cato Isaksen]]'' * ''[[Génesis, en la mente del asesino]]'' * ''[[Engrenaves]]'' * ''[[The Flying Doctors|Flying Doctors]]'' * ''[[The Daily Show]]'' * ''[[Pilot Guides]]''
