KBCW, digital channel 45 (virtual channel 44), is a West Coast flagship station of the The CW Television Network based in San Francisco, California. KBCW is owned by the CBS Corporation, and is part of a duopoly with CBS station KPIX-TV. The station's signal is transmitted from Sutro Tower.

From January 1995 until September 2006, KBCW was an owned-and-operated station of United Paramount Network (UPN). Before 1995, the station was an independent station. Channel 44 used the call letters KBHK-TV from its inception in 1968 until 2006. It airs on cable channel 12 on most cable systems in the Bay Area.

The station is also considered an alternate CBS affiliate, and as such KBCW can air CBS programs if KPIX should preempt it in a news-related emergency (which only happens occasionally). KBCW also airs reruns of Face the Nation, CBS Sunday Morning, and local programming such as Evening Magazine, now called Eye on the Bay, and the Last Honest Sports Show, produced by KPIX. The Cookie Jar TV children's block is carried on KBCW if pre-empted by CBS Sports coverage (Cookie Jar TV would itself pre-empt the Toonzai block).

History[link]

As an independent (KBHK)[link]

The station signed on as KBHK-TV on January 2, 1968, making it the second commercial UHF station in the San Francisco Bay area behind San Jose-based KICU (originally KGSC-TV). It was also first independent station in the region licensed to San Francisco as KTVU is based in Oakland. The KBHK callsign meant: Kaiser Broadcasting/Henry Kaiser as it was originally owned by Kaiser Broadcasting, which owned other UHF stations in Los Angeles, Detroit, Philadelphia, Boston, and Cleveland. Kaiser later merged with Chicago's Field Communications in 1973.

In 1977, Kaiser sold its interest in the stations to Field, making Field the sole owner of KBHK. Field later put its stations up for sale in 1982, and KBHK was sold to United Television in 1983.

The station's studio for a long time was located at 650 California Street. Several key scenes from the Robert Redford movie The Candidate were filmed in KBHK's studio at 420 Taylor Street (originally NBC Radio Studios). Many of KBHK's technicians appeared in the movie as themselves.

Programming[link]

KBHK had a typical independent program schedule consisting of a morning and afternoon children's block (which in the 1970s consisted mainly of off-network reruns of Hanna-Barbera cartoons, as well as the Famous Studios Popeye shorts, the classic Warner Bros. Cartoons, Dusty's Treehouse, New Zoo Revue, plus the Our Gang and Three Stooges shorts), off-network sitcoms (such as The Brady Bunch), feature films, and public affairs programming. The station attempted to produce a nightly newscast, only to abandon it due to low ratings. At one point, KBHK was known as the Bay Area's Movie Station since the station aired a movie in prime time six nights a week. KBHK also aired hit first run programming including the popular Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman, Star Trek: The Next Generation, and The Arsenio Hall Show. Several local programs produced at KBHK were syndicated nationally including Leonard Nimoy's Star Trek Memories (Paramount) and The Twilight Zone Special (Viacom). Bay Area kids were introduced to Japanese anime such as Speed Racer, Astro Boy, Kimba the White Lion, Robotech, and Captain Harlock and the Queen of 1000 Years. Later on in the 1990s, KBHK became home to anime such as: Ronin Warriors, Dragon Ball, Sailor Moon, and Pokémon while it was still in syndication before moving to Kids WB.

Over the years at various times, KBHK was the television home of the Oakland A's, Golden State Warriors, California Golden Seals (NHL) and San Francisco 49ers preseason football.

As a part of United Television, the station became an affiliate of the Prime Time Entertainment Network from 1993 to 1995.[1]

As a UPN affiliate (1995-2006)[link]

The station continued with its format and in 1995, United Television partnered with Paramount to create the UPN (United Paramount Network). Along with United Television's other independents, KBHK became a UPN owned-and-operated station.

The old sitcoms and cartoons were gradually replaced with more recent sitcoms, talk shows, game shows, court shows, and reality shows.

When News Corporation purchased the Chris-Craft station group in 2001, it traded KBHK-TV to Viacom in exchange for KTXH in Houston and WDCA in Washington, D.C.. Viacom had purchased CBS a year earlier, making KBHK a sister station to KPIX. Since News Corp. also owned the Fox television network, the station trade-off also protected Cox Enterprises-owned KTVU as the Bay Area's Fox affiliate. The Viacom purchase also reunited KBHK with Detroit's WKBD, which had been purchased by Paramount Stations Group (which was in the process of being sold to Viacom) in 1993. Under new ownership, KBHK moved from its original long-time studios on California Street in the Nob Hill area to share facilities with KPIX on Battery Street.

As a CW affiliate (2006-present)[link]

File:Kbcw.jpg
Logo as CW Bay Area (2006-07) although is still used for some promos

On January 24, 2006, the Warner Bros. Television unit of TimeWarner and CBS announced that UPN and WB would combine to form a new fifth television network, The CW, in September. On the day the new network was announced, it signed a 10-year affiliation deal with 11 of CBS' UPN stations, including KBHK. However, it is likely that KBHK would have been chosen even without the affiliation deal. Network officials were on record as preferring the "strongest" WB and UPN affiliates, and KBHK had been well ahead of WB affiliate KBWB-TV (channel 20) in the ratings for virtually all of UPN's run.

To reflect the new affiliation, KBHK officially changed its call sign to KBCW on July 1, 2006.

With the network change, Kids WB (now Toonzai) also moved to KBCW from KBWB (now KOFY-TV).

Despite being aligned with KPIX's strong news department, KBCW has only aired a nightly 10 p.m. newscast since March 3, 2008; it competes against KTVU's long-dominant primetime newscast. The newscast is broadcast in high definition. [1]

Station Presentation[link]

  • In San Francisco, the Choice is Yours, on Channel 44 (1978–1983, localized version of Field Communications ad campaign)
  • In San Francisco, the kids' choice is, Channel 44 (1978–1983, localized version of Field Communications ad campaign during children's programming)
  • Forty Four Cable Twelve (2008–present)

Digital television[link]

KBCW shut down its analog signal on June 12, 2009 as part of the DTV transition,[2] it remained on channel 45 [3] PSIP is used to display KBCW's virtual channel as 44 on digital television receivers. After the conversion, KTVU now holds channel 44 post-transition after it shut down its analog signal on channel 2.

Distinctions[link]

  • With the launch of The CW, KBCW held the distinction of being the Bay Area's only major English-language network station on the UHF dial.
  • KBCW is the first station in the Bay Area to be owned and operated by two different networks under CBS Corporation: UPN and the new The CW. In the case of UPN, then-KBHK was owned by United Television/Chris-Craft, the then owner of UPN.
  • KBCW is actually one of four flagships for The CW due to CBS not owning KTLA or WPIX., thus giving them the distinction of being the only West Coast network flagship not in Los Angeles. KBCW was also UPN's flagship from 2001 until UPN's shutdown.

When I'm at work, ya, I always rush right home for lunch
So I can check out what's up on the Flower Bunch
And when I'm walking through the front door at night
I gotta see who's winning on The Price is Right, oh
I never dreamed that I'd spend my days
Staring at some tube emitting cathode rays
I need my TV
What's happening in this world, I don't care at all
But it better not pre-empt Thursda Night Ice Hockey ball
I can't even come up with my own views
I'm taught how to think from the evening news, oh
I never dreamed that I'd spend my days
Staring at some tube emitting cathode rays
I need my TV
Everybody Sing
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la...
Avril Talks
Pissing me off here, can you do scumbagging this shit

There are no lyrics for T.V. - it is a spoken interlude in which television
channels are changing. The wording is misunderstood and misinterpretated.

When I'm at work, ya, I always rush right home for lunch
So I can check out what's up on the Brady Bunch
And when I'm walking through the front door at night
I gotta see who's winning on The Price is Right, oh
I never dreamed that I'd spend my days
Staring at some tube emitting cathode rays
I need my TV
What's happening in this world, I don't care at all
But it better not pre-empt Monday Night Football
I can't even come up with my own views
I'm taught how to think from the evening news, oh
I never dreamed that I'd spend my days
Staring at some tube emitting cathode rays
I need my TV

Jak byc dobrym
Jak spokojnym
Jak cierpliwym
Jak szczesliwym
Jak sie ustrzec przed dzialaniem
Krwawej fikcji na ekranie
Nie moze dobrze byc
Na szklanej tafli
Pelno krwi
Telewizja na sniadanie
Oferuje zabijanie
Gwalt i przemoc na ekranie
Wdraza w zycie zabijanie
Na zywo z piekla trwa relacja
Nienawisci rozpaczy karma
PROMOCJA GWALTU
POPRAWIA WSKAZNIK

You're tellin' me everything's alright
You know you tell such filthy lies
The common cold's got nothin' on you
You're a disease from which I die
You make love to my senses
Tryin' to win my heart
I ain't got no defenses...I'm beaten from the start
You insult my intelligence
While you pat me on the back
You give me something with one hand
While the other hand takes it back
You make love to my senses
Tryin' to win my heart
I ain't got no defenses no...got me beaten from the start, yeah
You cater to ?? fantasy
The web you weave is strong
You make it so hard seein' black from white
Tellin' right from wrong
You brainwash me senseless
Tearin' my brain apart
I ain't got no defenses...you got me beaten from the start, yeah
You got me beaten from the start
You got me beaten from the start
You got me beaten from the start
You got me beaten from the start
You make love to my senses

You're all invited by
By something as good as me
You're frightened by my sentiment
What do you want to be?
You want to be my TV
Change your format 'til I say when
You want to feel my breathing
Take a dive into this deep end
And you walk across my ceiling
Trip and fall until I say when
You want to be my TV
Take dive into it
You're all divided by
Something as good as me
You're frightened by my sentiment
What do you want to be?
You want to be my TV
Change your format 'til I say when
You want to feel my breathing
Take a dive into this deep end
And you walk across my ceiling
Trip and fall until I say when
You want to be my TV
Take dive into it
This soul is undecided
This soul is undecided
What do you want from me?
What do you want to be?
What do you want to be?
What do you want from me?
What do you want me to say?

[Originally by Asta Kask, the lyrics are just translated from Swedish into German]
Hans-Hermann der machte es genau wie sein Alter
Er machte den Fernseher für sich zum Altar
Er saß einfach da von sechs bis zwei
Das wirkliche Leben war ihm völlig einerlei
Er lehrte sich sterben, er lehrte sich beten
Er lehrte sich lieben, was immer auch das war
Er sah die Reichen, sie wälzten sich in Brot
Während Afrikas Völker litten bittere Not
Er blieb so passiv gegen alles was er sah
Sein Fernseher war das beste, was es für ihn gab
Seine Gefühle blieben völlig kalt
Ja, sogar bei Nazis und ihrer Gewalt
Ja, Fernsehen, das war sein Leben
Und nach 40 Jahren waren seine Eltern tot
Nun saß er alleine in seinem Boot
Er glotzte und glotzte und hatte Spaß dabei
Nun war er endlich mit seinem Fernseher allein
Hans-Hermann wurde alt, er führte keine Not
Er kannte keine Sorgen, nur seinen Tod
Der Fernseher sagte "Plopp", die Sicherung war raus
Gelähmt saß Hans-Hermann allein in seinem Haus
Nun liegt er auf dem Friedhof, zwei Meter tief
Die Glotze mit im Sarg, während er für immer schlief
Auf seinem Grab 'ne Antenne aufgebäumt
Auf der zu lesen steht: "Fernsehen war mein einziger Freund!"

yo
puedo cantar cualquiera cosa
que el cielo es azul, que mi amor eres tú
y la vida color de rosa es
y escribir la canción que me dé una razón
y no tardar más de media hora
que ahora la cosa está así, que no hay tiempo para decir
lo que te sale por la boca y siempre hay que esperar
para tener que explotar BANG!!!
y no sé cómo he llegado hasta aquí
algunas decisiones y algún que otro desliz
y el azar que hace el resto y que es como el cielo
lo mismo es un blues, lo mismo está gris
y yo aun te quiero, y te deseo
pero no tengo tiempo para ser feliz
y esto es lo que hay
te quedas o te vas
si el cielo está gris
yo no lo puedo cambiar
cambiar de canal
que más me da
si esta tele no entiende de mí…
no necesito beber para olvidar ni dejar esta ciudad
y pienso en ti y vuelve otra vez
no tengo tiempo para ser feliz
y esto es lo que hay
te quedas o te vas
si el cielo está gris
yo no lo puedo cambiar
cambiar de canal
que más me da
si esta tele no entiende de mí…

My favorite TV station sucks
I just want my TV cartoon series
Not only this news fucking bullshit now
It takes me to the greatest feeling
Of my sensibility of anger
Don't you know how much I love
Every TV station in every Sunday Morning

You could wake up
in the morning and try
to feel so good
that you didnt realise
and the things they're like
stop me from crying
but at night
they stop me from crying
I couldnt take up
more space in my mind
(?) the back door isn't easy to find
as a call from self-indulgence
we'll meet our world
to pull up a something
so can you tell me
that you feel this fame
when you stare at the faces
full with so much shame
or is it you're too high
to tell us the part
so you can live your life
and keep up your lying
i can not stand to watch the TV
lions and the clowns keep staring at me
and the boys and the girls
of the town are afraid
they go up to destroy

You're away or captured by TV
I'm not on TV you can't see me
You're the expert on celebrities
No-one ever concentrates on me
You're, you're away or captured by TV'n
Nobody ever concentrates on me
You're, you're away or captured by TV, I want
Human company!
I made my own "See me" -magazine
Launched a "me"-commercial on TV
Bribed film industry to hit the screen
Oh just let's face it now you are after me
I did it all just to put you on your knees
So try, try harder, you hardly are a dream

You advertise,
I sit here, wide eyed,
Watching something I don't want to watch,
Being forced into my mind.
Why should I watch?
Stop inflicting pain on me,
Every time I switch on my TV.
Your adverts and your company,
Are of no use or help to me.
I don't have the money,
To buy these products,
(I don't have the money)
And I don't have the eye or the luck (I don't have the eye)
Do you want a hole in my wallet?
After you've ripped me off.
[x2]
Why should I feel? (Why should I feel?)
Why should I watch? (Why should I watch?)
How can I get into this film?
When every 15 minutes it fucking stops.
[x2]
Stop inflicting pain on me,
Every time I switch on my TV.
Your adverts and your company,

I grew up in a world that was all wrong
Nothing I did could help it at all
So I found my place and took a stand
Didn't take too long to grow into a man
I sit at home and watch T.V.
How could this happen to me
I tried to change the world like a one man infantry
Tried so hard that my hands began to bleed
Cuz i needed help like everyone else
I look to you but your too fucking scared to help
There was a time when I thought I could save the world
But I was far too young
I stand alone what do I see
A bunch of fucking idiots
With the same thoughts as me

I knew you'd go far
In my white convertible car
Recline in my seat
Lying back in this heat
Look me up on channel three
So sophisticated
Charming and educated
And I hope you don't mind
Nothing's harder to find
Someone sensual like you
Elton John's style
With an eagle profile
Small screen smile
Coquille St. Jaques
Coquille St. Jaques
I think you're very, very, very,
Very, very, very, very, very, very...
Etends moi
Au dessous de toi
Je suis une sphinx
Les genoux a chacque cote
De vos cuisses
It won't take long
Oh you're so strong
Recline in my seat
Back in this heat
In my white convertible
I told you before
You've made me so sore
With your foot on the floor
All the way to my door
Your beautiful teeth, what's underneath?
There's nothing left to do
I think you're very, very, very,
