As one of the first tv workers in Norway, Bergh worked for the first years with everything from The Nobel Peace Price and the news to theatre and large studio shows. It was however entertainment that would become his speciality.During his career he produced several thousand tv programs. The shows went on to become benchmark productions for Norwegian entertainment, and many want on for many seasons, some still being in production. Programs include: Lørdagskveld med Erik Bye (talkshow), Kontrapunkt (quiz show), Momarkedet (live variety show), Kvitt eller dobbelt (Norwegian version of The $64,000 Question), Ta sjansen (annual event), Dette er ditt liv (Norwegian version of This is Your Life), Nyttårsshow (variety show), OL-show (olympic variety show), Spellemannprisen (Norwegian music awards) og Melodi Grand Prix (Eurovision Song Contest).
