TV2 (Hungary)

TV2 is the flagship channel of TV2 Csoport and one of the two most-watched television channels in Hungary, the other being RTL, which was launched only three days later (regular programming would not commence until 27 October).
The channel and its sister channels at the time (SuperTV2, FEM3 and PRO4) were all owned by the German media group ProSiebenSat.1 Media until 2014, when they were sold; their biggest rival, RTL Magyarország, is owned by RTL Group, itself in turn owned by another German company, Bertelsmann.

TV2 Hungary launched a new look on 31 August 2003. The "2" looks similar to the digit from the logo of TVP2:
"The identity is based on the core thought, 'heightened emotions', supported by a graphic property that visually conveys the idea of 'waves of emotion'."—Lambie-Nairn press release
==2008–present==
TV2's current logo, a white numeral 2 touching the edges of a red square, was launched on 25 August 2008. The logo has remained the same since then, though there were subsequent rebrands in September 2012 and October 2020, the latter date being its 23rd anniversary.
