KHTV
1967–1981
Originally signed on the air on Friday, January 6, 1967 as KHTV, an independent television station on UHF channel 39 established by the WKY Television System, a subsidiary of Oklahoma City-based Oklahoma Publishing Company. The station began with a slide on Channel 39 announcing the new station, accompanied by an advertising campaign. The station began regular programming immediately after.

By coincidence, while the station was operated by Gaylord at the time, this logo was similar to the early logos used by Fox Television Stations' properties (which used Friz Quadrata), including rival station KRIV (UHF channel 26), at various timeframes from 1986 to 1994.

Chicago-based Tribune Broadcasting (whose parent company Tribune Company jointly owned The WB with Time Warner) acquired channel 39 from Gaylord Entertainment (owner of then-superstation KTVT in Fort Worth-Dallas) and became the new network's affiliate for the Houston area on September 20, 1995. Prior to this, cable providers would recieve SuperStation WGN (now NewsNation) in that area.
