List of Finnish television channels

|
This is a list of television channels broadcasting to Finnish- and Swedish-language audiences in Finland. Typically, non-Finnish content is subtitled, retaining the original language soundtrack. Non-Finnish programming intended for children is, however, usually dubbed into Finnish. Regardless of the intended audience, many shows receive a Finnish title which is used in programme schedules.
