TV 2 Filmkanalen was a Norwegian movie channel. The channel broadcast 18 hours a day and showed about 420 movies a year.
The channel was closed on 2 March 2015, at 04.30 am, being replaced with TV 2 Humor which began at 06.00 am the same day. The cause for its closure was the arrival of streaming services, which justified the lack of insisting on a linear film channel in 2015. Movies would still be seen on the group's channels; TV 2 Humor was not seen as a direct replacement.
