Pikku Kakkonen

It finished with a bedtime story read by the late Lasse Pöysti (1927-2019) and an East German Sandman animation, setting the format for hundreds of later episodes.

The Pikku Kakkonen show is based in Tampere, and its signature melodies (The Pikku Kakkonen mail tune and the main title tune) have been made into mobile phone ringing tones.

On October 25, 1983, Pikku Kakkonen introduced a new logo that consists of a moon, a flower, a teddybear, a doll, a ghost, a fish, and a bird which together form the number 2; this matches the frequency for Yle's secondary channel.

A variety of live-action and animated television series air as part of Pikku Kakkonen, both domestic and imported.

Galaxi broadcasts live-action and animated television series both from Finland and overseas, all in the Finnish language.
