# Ordinace v růžové zahradě 2

Ordinace v růžové zahradě 2 (until 2008 Ordinace v růžové zahradě, meaning: Doctor's office in the rose garden 2) is a Czech medical drama and soap opera broadcast from 2005 to 2021 on TV Nova channel and from 2021 on Voyo.cz. The soap opera plot is about a hospital in fictive town of Kamenice located in Hradec Králové District, its employees (like doctors and nurses, or even the patients) and their life stories, families and relationships.
Until March 2020, the soap opera was broadcast every Tuesday and Thursday in the prime time. In September 2020, after a long pause due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the broadcast time has changed; every Thursday two episodes have been broadcast, and in 2021, only one episode was broadcast each Thursday. Until 2020, every episode was watched by more than a million viewers; when the filming method has changed, the viewership dropped under 900,000 viewers per episode. On 23 November 2020 TV Nova announced that Ordinace v růžové zahradě 2 would end in June 2021. However, on 8 June 2021, it was stated that the series will continue on VOD platform Voyo.
Already 1,266 episodes have been broadcast by 9 August 2022.

Aside from main characters, a big number of side characters appear in every episode, including patients, people visiting restaurants, nurses and doctors which are unimportant for the plot etc. They are either played by actors, or extras. Most side characters do not significantly affect the plot and don't get much attention, if any. Sometimes real Czech celebrities and important people playing themselves appear as guests in the serial, such as Lucie Borhyová or Jan Pirk. In 2010, former Czech president Václav Havel appeared in the serial.
