Dvojka (formerly STV2) is a Slovak television generalist channel owned and operated by public broadcasting, state-funded STVR.

Changes in September 1990 led to the old second channel being dismantled and replaced by separate networks: the Czech ČTV and the Slovak S1.

[2] STV was embroiled in a series of administrative changes, and one of the proposals in 1996 was to privatize the second network and move it entirely to cable and satellite television.

[5] In accordance with STV's "new start" under the slogan "Television that looks at you" on the evening of January 1, 2004 led by Richard Rybníček, STV2 was renamed Dvojka aiming at a niche audience, with most cultural, sports and minority/regional programming moved to this channel.

The channel announced new cultural talk shows (Anjeli strážni, Literárne oko, Pod lampou), regional news services (Regionálny denník Regionálne správy) fed by the Košice, Banska Bystrica and Bratislava studios, a three-hour montly program presented from the regions of Slovakia (Vitajte u nás…) and a variety of international imports, as well as coverage of the national football and hockey leagues and key international sporting events.
