Portveien 2 was a children's TV-show produced by NRK, which premiered on 19 March 1985. It has had many reruns, and has become a part of Norwegian TV history. The show produced 140 episodes. The outdoor footage for the series was filmed in a little house in the allotment gardens at Sagene in Oslo, Norway. Portveien 2 is not a real address, the closest street is Kongsvingergata.

The series was NRK's first production where the shootings were rationalised, so one could make a large volume of episodes. Portveien 2 was an attempt to make a children's show for the youngest children and at the same time engage the whole family. The themes in the shows were generally attached to nature, but also to fairytales, traditions, feelings and other social relationships.^[1]
