Second Avenue
Andra Avenyn was a Swedish drama and soap opera series produced by SVT, airing from 2007 to 2010. The show, which ran for three seasons, was the brainchild of Peter Emanuel Falck and Christian Wikander, who were also behind other Swedish soaps like Varuhuset, Rederiet, and Tre kronor. The theme song for the series was “Friday I’m in Love” by the British rock band The Cure. Filming took place in Gothenburg, with indoor scenes shot at Santos House studio on Lindholmen and outdoor scenes primarily filmed in Kvillestaden/Brämaregården on Hisingen. In 2008, Andra Avenyn was nominated for the Kristallen TV Prize for “Best Swedish TV Series,” but did not win. Additionally, actors Fortesa Hoti and Jonas Bane received nominations for the Aftonbladet TV Prize in 2008, though neither took home the award. SVT decided to end the series, with the final episode airing on SVT1 on May 5, 2010.
