The logo was based on that used by KTVT in Fort Worth-Dallas from 1993 to 1995, as an independent station; KOCB used most of that station's former graphical imaging during the timeframe in which this logo was used.

On January 16, 1995, KOCB became a charter affiliate of UPN.

1998–2001

KOCB became an affiliate of The WB on January 18, 1998, under an affiliation agreement signed the year prior between the network and station parent Sinclair Broadcast Group (which acquired KOCB and Fox-affiliated sister station WDKY-TV in Danville, Kentucky from Superior Communications in 1996) that resulted in Sinclair switching most of its UPN-affiliated stations to The WB. It is currently unknown what station affiliated with the WB prior to the switch.

UPN programming was unavailable in the Oklahoma City market for six months after the affiliation switch, until the Paramount Stations Group subsidiary of Viacom (now ViacomCBS) switched then-recent acquisition, KPSG (now KAUT-TV, which it acquired from the Oklahoma Educational Television Authority in January 1998), to the network on June 15, 1998.

KOCB disaffiliated from The CW on September 1, 2023 (making the station an independent for the first time since it became a charter UPN affiliate in 1995), under a renewed affiliation agreement between Sinclair and CW majority owner Nexstar Media Group that resulted in the affiliation being moved to independent station KAUT-TV, in exchange for allowing Sinclair to assume the CW affiliations in Seattle and Pittsburgh (respectively on KOMO-DT2^[1] and WPNT, replacing Paramount-owned KSTW and WPKD). KOCB began branding by its callsign on August 30, two days before the switch.

Notes

↑ The Seattle CW affiliation subsequently moved to sister station KUNS-TV in January 2024.
