IRIB TV2 (Persian: شبكه دو, romanized: Shabakeh-ye Do, lit. 'Channel Two') is one of the 40 national television channels in Iran. It broadcasts to the Persian-speaking areas of the Middle East and is headquartered in Tehran.
The channel has a variety of programming similar to IRIB TV1, including miniseries, comedies, children's shows, talk shows, news broadcasts, and original television films. It is positioned as the "family and life" network of the corporation.[1]
According to IRIB's new policies since 6 March 2022, all its news programs and others from different channels transferred into IRINN. The 8:00, 14:00, 19:00, and 21:00 news programs from IRIB TV2 have been transferred alongside other news programs like the Special News Negotiation (Ghoftegoyeh Vigeh Khabari) that transferred with Tonight's Headline (Titer Emshab) to IRINN. This changes were not only limited to these news programs as IRIB claimed it will advance to other IRIB channels (however, 20:30 still airs today).
History
[edit]Before 1979
[edit]The Iranian government in 1963 created a cabinet for educational television provision, which was accomplished in 1966.[1] Broadcasts started in October 1966 at the same time as National Iranian Television.[2] The educational network was later absorbed into National Iranian Radio and Television, as its second channel.[3]
Color broadcasts started in early 1977 using the French SECAM standard. The service was limited to Tehran but a plan to expand the signals nationwide was already being put to place.[4]
After 1979
[edit]Following the Islamic Revolution of 1979, IRIB took over NIRT's operations and the educational output and expertise from the former second NIRT network was carried over to its replacement. In the 1980s, TV2 carried three to five daily hours of educational content and two daily hours of cultural content.[1]
In 2009, it was repositioned as a channel for children and families.[1]
