WCIU-TV (channel 26) is anindependent television station inChicago, Illinois, United States. It is theflagship television property of locally basedWeigel Broadcasting, which has owned the station since its inception, and issister to twolow-power stations: independent outletWMEU-CD (channel 48) andMeTV/Heroes & Icons flagshipWWME-CD (channel 23). The stations share studios onHalsted Street in theGreektown neighborhood; WCIU-TV's transmitter is located atop theWillis Tower in theChicago Loop.
WCIU-TV was previously an affiliate ofThe CW; it was the largest CW affiliate by market size that was notowned or operated byNexstar Media Group, which owns 75% of the network. This changed on September 1, 2024, when The CWreturned to Nexstar-ownedWGN-TV.Gray Media–ownedWPCH-TV inAtlanta now holds the title.[2]
Founded by John J. Weigel (the father of Chicago sportscasterTim Weigel),[3] the station first signed on the air on February 6, 1964, as Chicago's first UHF station. It has been owned by Weigel Broadcasting since its inception. WCIU has spent much of its history carryingmulti-ethnic entertainment programming. At its sign-on, channel 26 operated as anindependent station; the call letters stand for "Chicago Independent UHF". A minority stake was held by businessman Howard Shapiro, who founded appliance store chain C.E.T. (Chicago Engineers for Television). Shapiro and his brother Gene took over Weigel Broadcasting and WCIU in 1966.[4]
From the late 1960s until 1985, WCIU carriedreligious programs during the early morning. The station ranThe Stock Market Observer—a business news block similar in format to the present-day cable channelCNBC—from about 8 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. each weekday; the service broadcast from the trading floor of theChicago Board of Trade, with WCIU originally maintaining studio facilities at the top floor of theChicago Board of Trade Building on West Jackson Boulevard. After 5 p.m. each weekday, the station ranSpanish language entertainment programming—including controversialbullfighting matches—from the Spanish International Network (the forerunner toUnivision). During the weekend, WCIU ran a blend of religious programs, Spanish language programs,paid programming and various other ethnically oriented shows.
From 1966 to 1970, the station airedKiddie A-Go-Go, a children'spuppet and dance program which was hosted byElaine Mulqueen.[5] Several popular musical groups performed on the show, includingThe Four Seasons andNew Colony Six.[6] In 1970, channel 26 became the birthplace of the groundbreakingAfrican American music programSoul Train, hosted by its creator (and then-WCIU station employee)Don Cornelius. The show later entered into nationalsyndication and moved production toLos Angeles the following year, although WCIU continued to produce a local version ofSoul Train exclusively for the Chicago market until 1976, initially and simultaneously with the Los Angeles-based version, with Cornelius himself as host, succeeded by Clinton Ghent, the main producer under Cornelius.[7][8]
After WXXW (channel 20, allocation later occupied byPBSmember stationWYCC)—the second-to-last television station in the market that continued to broadcast inblack-and-white—wentdark in 1974, channel 26 remained the only television station in Chicago that still broadcast its programming in monochrome. Just prior to the Christmas season of 1974, the station installed and testedcolor transmission equipment, which broadcast on alow-power relay station located inLincoln Park. In November 1974, the color and black-and-white signals traded transmitter facilities for the remainder of the holiday season; on December 31, 1974, the translator was taken offline as channel 26 started to broadcast in color full-time.
In the summer of 1985, the SIN affiliation moved toWSNS-TV (channel 44); WCIU, meanwhile, became affiliated part-time with NetSpan—which would eventually evolve intoTelemundo—shortly thereafter. Later in the 1980s, Weigel Broadcasting expanded coverage of WCIU-TV to areas of western Illinois,northwest Indiana andsoutheasternWisconsin throughtranslator stations. In 1983, the station signed on W55AS (channel 55, nowWBME-CD on channel 41) to relay WCIU's programming into theMilwaukee market. In 1987, WCIU launched two additional translators, W33AR (channel 33, nowWFBN-LD) inRockford, Illinois (which was converted into a simulcast of sister stationWYTU-LD (channel 63) in Milwaukee in August 2012, to provide Telemundo programming into the Rockford market, as WSNS provides weak torimshot signal coverage to that area; Telemundo eventually moved to the station's second subchannel to accommodateTouchVision, followed byH&I currently), and W12BK (channel 69, nowMyNetworkTV affiliateWMYS-LD) inSouth Bend, Indiana.
On October 13, 1988, WSNS-TV announced that it would switch its affiliation to Telemundo after that station's affiliation agreement with Univision concluded on December 31; two months later on December 16, WCIU—whose contract with Telemundo was set to expire the following month—signed an affiliation agreement with Univision, returning the station to that network after two years. The two stations switched affiliations on January 10, 1989.[9][10]
In 1993, Univision asked WCIU to drop all of its English-language programming, includingStock Market Observer, and carry the network's programming full-time. WCIU refused, which led Univision to purchase then-English language independent stationWGBO-TV (channel 66) from Combined Broadcasting for $35 million on January 10, 1994, with the intent of moving its programming there the following January. That summer, Howard Shapiro hired Neal Sabin—formerprogram director atWPWR-TV (channel 50)—as WCIU's vice president andgeneral manager, who decided to remake WCIU into a conventional English-language general entertainment independent station. Univision assumed ownership of WGBO in August 1994, but was forced to run that station as an independent station for five months afterward as WCIU's affiliation contract with Univision did not expire until the end of the year.[11] On December 31, 1994, WCIU switched to English-language general entertainment programming full-time and rebranded as "The U".[12][13][14][15][16][17] In the spring of 1995, WCIU and low-poweredsister station W23AT (channel 23, later WFBT-CA; nowWWME-CD) moved their operations from the Chicago Board of Trade building into a 64,000-square-foot (5,946 m2) studio facility at 30 North Halsted Street in Chicago'sNear West Side community.[18]
Upon the conversion, channel 26 picked up most of WGBO's syndicated programming inventory, along with newly purchased shows that were not carried by any of the other Chicago stations; it also moved its remaining ethnic programming to WFBT.[16] Channel 26's programming began to feature mostly classicsitcoms anddrama series (such asThe Munsters,Gilligan's Island,Hogan's Heroes,The Rockford Files andLeave It to Beaver). The station also revived thehorror/sci-fi movie showcaseSvengoolie, which had previously run in the market onWFLD (channel 32) in two different incarnations between 1970 and that station's conversion into aFox owned-and-operated station in 1986;Rich Koz—who reprised the role he previously played in WFLD'sSon of Svengoolie for WCIU's revival of the showcase—also co-hosted the station's New Year's Eve relaunch celebration on December 31, 1994, alongside controversial talk show hostMorton Downey Jr. (who himself hosted a short-lived talk show on the station,Downey, which briefly aired nationally on CNBC later in 1995) and served as one of the "U'z Guys," a group of hosts for various blocks of the station's programming.[4][17] Initially, the station continued to run theStock Market Observer from 8:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. and entertainment programming in all other weekday timeslots and throughout much of the broadcast day on weekends. WCIU then added a weekday block of children's programs from 7 to 9 a.m. in March 1995.
On February 19, 1995, WCIU signed a multi-year agreement withThe WB to carry the network's children's program block,Kids' WB, upon its debut on September 9, 1995. The WB's primary affiliate in the market,WGN-TV (channel 9), opted not to carry the block and continued to run itsmorning newscast and an afternoon sitcom block in the time slots where Kids' WB would normally air on other WB affiliates (however, WGN'ssuperstation feed for cable providers outside of the Chicago area and satellite providers nationwide carried Kids' WB programming, in addition to The WB's prime time schedule). The agreement also allowed WCIU to carry WB prime time programming in the event that WGN-TV chose to preempt it in order to airCubs,White Sox andBulls evening games.[19][20]
In order to make room for the Kids' WB block, the fullStock Market Observer broadcast moved to WFBT-CA, on September 9. The weekday business news programming was then reduced to a3+1⁄2-hour block from 8:30 a.m. to noon, a move which was criticized by some viewers; although it cited that Weigel had "no intention of killing" the program, Sabin cited the program's niche format and limited ratings and revenue for the block's shift to WFBT, in order for channel 26 to carry more profitable entertainment programming.[21][22] In 2000, the program was rebranded as "WebFN", a joint venture between Weigel andBridge Information Systems (which also aired on Milwaukee sister station WMLW-CA).[23]"WebFN" would eventually feature several anchors formerly employed withWMAQ radio (670 AM) after that station was replaced bysports talk outletWSCR in 2000.
By the late 1990s, WCIU began adding more recent sitcoms; the station began to add more syndicated first-runtalk andreality shows onto its daytime lineup in 2000. In September 2001, WCIU dropped the morning children's block, reducing children's programming to the afternoon. In September 2004, the station dropped the Kids' WB weekday and Saturday blocks, which moved to WGN-TV, resulting in that station clearing the entire WB network schedule for the first time. Classic sitcoms gradually disappeared from WCIU's schedule between 2001 and 2004 (some of these programs would find their way onto WFBT when it began running a classic television programming block called "MeTV", which would become that station's full-time format under the callsign WWME-CA on January 1, 2005). Early in 2005, the business news format was scaled back to include only the existing syndicated programFirst Business, which Weigel had assumed production responsibilities for in 2003 after WebFN went bankrupt.[24] That program continued until the end of 2014 under Weigel ownership, and theChicago Board Options Exchange took over responsibilities for the program asBusiness First AM; it continues to air in Chicago onCN100 and theTotal Living Network.
On April 18, 2019, Weigel Broadcasting signed an agreement withCBS Corporation through which WCIU-TV would take over asThe CW's Chicago-area affiliate on September 1, replacing WPWR-TV, which had been carrying the network's programming since September 1, 2016. To accommodate the CW prime time lineup, WCIU moved its evening lineup of syndicated programs to WMEU-CD/WCIU-DT2.[25][26][27][28] WMEU-CD/WCIU-DT2, which has been known as "The U Too", took the branding of "The U" on September 1. The new "The U" would also become the new home of the majorhigh school sports championships of theIllinois High School Association.[29] Channel 26 was the third station in Chicago to affiliate with The CW, after WGN-TV (2006–2016) and WPWR-TV (2016–2019). Weigel already had experience running a CW affiliate, as it ownsWCWW-LD in the adjacent South Bend market.
Like WPWR (which is under a channel sharing agreement with sister station WFLD), WCIU carries its main channel at720p, below The CW's default1080i resolution, due to running several standard definition subchannels, along with The U in 720p.
On May 1, 2024, it was announced that The CW would return to WGN-TV in September and WCIU-TV would revert to independent status.[30] By that July, in conjunction with the announcement of WCIU acquiring syndicated reruns ofBob Hearts Abishola, the station announced it would revive "The U" as its branding, with the brand moving from its previous home at WMEU, with the move; the rebrand would take effect on August 1, during the final month of the CW affiliation, with the station promoting the relaunch with a slightly modified version of their original slogan, "The U'zSTILL Got It!".
WCIU-TV has broadcast many locally produced programs over the years; among them areUltrascope (a program sponsored bySears that was used to sell UHF-capable televisions and boxes within their Chicago area stores, and featured a format similar toMusic Choice featuring a clock/album cover display and album audio which aired daily from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.),Ted and the Angel (a talk show hosted by Ted Weber andAngel Tompkins from 1967 to 1968, which was nominated for a RegionalEmmy Award in its first year; Weber later hosted two other WCIU programs,Ted Weber In Old Town andThe C.E.T. Amateur Hour).The Homework Show (1995–2006),U Dance with B96 (anAmerican Bandstand-style music/dance show hosted by DJs fromWBBM-FM, 1995–1997),[4]Stooge-A-Palooza (a showcase ofThree Stooges shorts with Rich Koz, 2003–2010),[31]Soul Train (1970–1976, local version only; nationally syndicated version from Los Angeles was seen from 1971 to 2006, locally on WBBM-TV and later, WGN-TV),[31]The Bob Lewandowski Show, (1964–1995),Outdoor Sportsman (1978–1985; originally aired on WSNS-TV, it was produced and hosted by local outdoorsman Joe Wyer),Stock Market Observer (1968–2000),WebFN (2000–2003, replaced theStock Market Observer),Kiddie-A-Go-Go (1964–1967),Western Theatre with Two Ton Baker (1964–1965),Marty Faye Show,The Chicago Party (c. 1982),Eddie Korosa'sPolka Party (c. 1978) andFirst Business (a business news program which Weigel took over production in 2003, replacingWebFN, and syndicated nationally throughMGM Television until 2014).[24]
Current local programs seen on WCIU include the horror/sci-fi film showcaseSvengoolie (which is syndicated to MeTV and other Weigel stations), religious programRock of Ages and the children's programGreen Screen Adventures (which also syndicated to MeTV, This TV and other Weigel stations).[32]
In 2022, WCIU became the home of theChicago Thanksgiving Parade, after the parade had been relegated to low-power television in 2021.[33]
On July 8, 1999, WGN-TV and WCIU-TV entered into a programming arrangement involving sports coverage, which allowed channel 26 to carry select Chicago Bulls basketball and White Sox baseball games, and a handful of Cubs baseball games that are produced by and contracted to air on WGN-TV, due to that station's network affiliation contracts (with The CW and previously The WB) that limit the number of programming preemptions that WGN-TV is allowed on an annual basis, and rights restrictions enforced by theNBA which limited the number of Bulls telecasts aired on WGN's nationalsuperstation feed WGN America—prior to that channel's removal of WGN-produced programs upon its conversion into a basic cable channel in December 2014—to fifteen games per season.[34][35][36][37][38]
Sports broadcasts on WCIU were previously branded under the "BullsNet", "HawksNet", "CubsNet" and "SoxNet" banners until 2010, when they were rebranded under the umbrella titleWGN Sports on The U. In 2011, all White Sox,Blackhawks, Bulls and Cubs games televised on WCIU began to be syndicated to local stations in central Illinois andIowa through the "WGN Sports Network" service. Prior to this, select Bulls games aired by WCIU and WGN had been simulcast to many of these same stations. In April 2006, WCIU began broadcasting White Sox, Cubs and Bulls home games in high definition, with away games following suit in April 2008. In February 2015, Weigel Broadcasting discontinued its agreement with Tribune Broadcasting to carry Cubs and White Sox telecasts produced by WGN, so as to not have the game broadcasts conflict with theWLS-TV-produced prime time newscast on WCIU (with WPWR-TV taking over as an overflow feed for WGN).[39] The Blackhawks returned in2025; with one game airing due to a Bulls and White Sox conflict onChicago Sports Network.[40] The White Sox also returned in2025. Chicago Sports Network and WCIU reached an agreement to simulcast seven games beginning in July. The simulcast will include a three-game series against the Cubs in late July.[41]
In2021, WCIU began airing a limited amount ofChicago Sky games.[42] From 2022 to 2024, the limited games on WCIU were aired in partnership withMarquee Sports Network, which also streamed these games on Marquee Plus.[43] In2025, WCIU acquired the exclusive local rights to the Sky.[44]
From2010 until2016, WCIU has served as a local over-the-air broadcaster ofNFL games involving theChicago Bears that are televised byESPN'sMonday Night Football. WLS-TV (channel 7), WCIU's news partner, is an owned-and-operated station ofABC (itself a sister network to ESPN through ABC parentThe Walt Disney Company's majority ownership of the cable network), but has chosen to exercise itsright of first refusal to carryMNF games, deferring most games aired since 2010 in order to airDancing with the Stars (due to the program's popularity and the structure of its live voting requirements) during that program's fall season. It also carried a Cubs game in lieu of WLS-TV in mid-September 2019 (when The CW was still in its summer season), as ABC unexpectedly scheduled thesixth-season finale ofBachelor in Paradise for the same evening. This was no longer an issue to any Chicago broadcast station beginning in 2020 with the move of all Chicago professional sports locally toNBC Sports Chicago andMarquee Sports Network (outside network telecasts and the Bears).[45]
The station refused carriage of the 2023LIV Golf season after the controversial golf league contracted with The CW (now majority-owned byNexstar Media Group) to carry their tournaments; in Chicago, it airs on Nexstar's WGN-TV instead, though Weigel does carry it on WCWW-LD in South Bend, making it likely that existing programming commitments (including to theIllinois High School Association) and a strong weekend syndication schedule led Weigel to decline the coverage. WCIU has also declined to air The CW's coverage ofAtlantic Coast Conference football and men's basketball games.[citation needed]
Alongside theStock Market Observer, WCIU's first standalone local news programming effort debuted in 1968, when it launched a half-hour weeknight 10 p.m. newscast titledA Black's View of the News, a program focusing on news and commentary relevant to Chicago's African American community. The program—which served as a launching pad for eventualSoul Train host Don Cornelius—was canceled in 1982.[31]
In September 2009, WCIU debutedYou and Me This Morning, a weekdaymorning program featuring a broad mix of entertainment news, lifestyle features and weather forecasts. The program—which effectively maintains a lighter format, which does not incorporate conventional general news segments—originally aired in the form of locally producedinserts of varying length interspersed within what otherwise was a three-hour block of syndicated programming on WCIU and classic television series on WWME-CA from 6 to 8 a.m.[46][47] Although it trails behind theWGN Morning News on WGN-TV andGood Day Chicago on WFLD (as well as the national morning programs onWMAQ-TV,WLS-TV andWBBM-TV that the second hour of the program also competes against) in the ratings, viewership for the program has increased since its debut; in particular, its ratings doubled from an average of 40,000 viewers in May 2012 to 73,000 in May 2014.You & Me This Morning expanded into a full three-hour program (running from 6 to 9 a.m.) on September 8, 2014.[48][49][50][51]
On December 14, 2014, WCIU entered into a news share agreement with ABC owned-and-operated station WLS-TV to produce a weeknight-only 7 p.m. newscast for channel 26. TitledABC 7Eyewitness News at 7:00 on The U, the program debuted on January 12, 2015, as the third prime time newscast among the Chicago market's commercial television stations, behind the longer established in-house 9 p.m. newscasts on WGN-TV and Fox owned-and-operated station WFLD (channel 32). With the news share agreement, WLS-TV became the fifth ABC-owned station to produce a newscast for a separately owned station in its home market (along with existing programs produced by ABC O&Os inRaleigh,Philadelphia,San Francisco andLos Angeles forWLFL,WPHL-TV,KOFY-TV andKDOC-TV in the respective markets, and a since-cancelled newscast produced byKFSN-TV forKAIL inFresno).[52][53] WLS-TV newscasts on WCIU featured news anchorsCheryl Burton andLinda Yu, along with chief meteorologistJerry Taft andJim Rose on sports. On July 29, 2019, WCIU-TV and WLS-TV jointly announced that the newscast would end on August 30, a move related to WCIU's affiliation with The CW.[54]
On June 14, 2017, WCIU announced that it would launchThe Jam, a new morning show that would replaceYou and Me This Morning in the 6 to 8 a.m. timeslot that summer at a date to be determined. The program—which the station's head of programming and creative, Steve Bailey, described would "promise[...] to be bold and unfiltered"—will feature a mix of local and national news headlines (as well as opinions on the featured stories by its hosts), entertainment and pop culture news, and weather forecasts. The program's concept is based in part onThe Daily Buzz, a syndicated morning news program that ran from 2002 to 2015, which Bailey (who joined Weigel Broadcasting in October 2016, after serving as director of programming andaffiliate marketing atMedia General) had previously worked as the program's vice president of marketing and promotions.[55][56]

In July 2008, Weigel Broadcasting announced the launch ofThis TV, a national subchannel network operated as ajoint venture betweenMetro-Goldwyn-Mayer and Weigel.[61] This TV officially launched with WCIU as its flagship station (airing ondigital subchannel 26.5) on November 1, 2008.[62] This TV moved to the third digital subchannel of WGN-TV on November 1, 2013, as a result of the May 13, 2013, announcement that WGN ownerTribune Broadcasting would acquire Weigel's 50% ownership interest in This TV.[63][64]Bounce TV (which was already carried on WWME-CD 23.2) began to occupy This TV's former subchannel, moving from WWME 23.2 to WCIU 26.5.
On December 1, 2010, WCIU dropped its ethnic programming service FBT on digital subchannel 26.6 and replaced it a simulcast of the station's main channel. Two weeks later on December 15, the 26.6 subchannel was dropped and its programming was shifted to digital channel 26.2 (replacing a simulcast of sister station WWME-CA, which moved to WCIU digital subchannel 26.3) where it continued to simulcast most of WCIU's main programming. In addition, virtual channel 48.1 was discontinued (to be later used by the digital signal ofWMEU-CA) while 23.1 reverted to being thevirtual channel number for WWME-CA (23.2 was also discontinued at that time; it has since been restored, and now serves as an affiliate of Heroes & Icons).
On January 4, 2011, MGM and Weigel Broadcasting announced plans to turn the MeTV format that originated on sister station WWME-CA into a national network.[65][66] The national MeTV service launched on WWME and WCIU digital subchannel 26.3 on December 15, 2010.
The following day on January 5, digital subchannel 26.2 was relaunched with its own general entertainment format, branded as "The U Too"—a nod to the main channel's longtime branding, "The U".[59][60] The service features some time-shifted programming from WCIU's main channel, including some syndicated programs not seen in the Chicago market prior to the format conversion. It also broadcast a handful ofDePaulBlue Demons and otherbasketball games from the "old"Big East Conference; "The U Too" currently serves as the over-the-air broadcaster ofWNBA games from theChicago Sky andAHLhockey games from theChicago Wolves.[67][68] From January 10, 2011, to September 2013, The U Too subchannel was also simulcast on the analog signal of WWME-CA until The U Too began broadcasting inhigh definition on WMEU-CD channel 48.1 (the 26.2 version of the U Too signal remains in 16:9standard definitionwidescreen). Currently, WWME-CA's analog signal simulcasts Heroes & Icons as aired on digital subchannel 26.4.
On May 4, 2021, Weigel announced that WCIU-DT5 would become the inaugural affiliate of MeTV spinoff MeTV Plus upon its May 15 launch; Bounce TV was reported to move its Chicago affiliate to a subchannel of WCPX at that time. The channel would air a variety of sitcoms and drama series, similar to the format of original spinoff MeToo, and is believed to be Weigel's answer toRewind TV, a spinoff ofAntenna TV launched byNexstar Media Group that September.[69]
On June 12, 2009, the date of thefederally mandated switch from analog to digital television for full-power stations, WCIU-TV shut down its analog signal. The station's digital signal remained on its pre-transition UHF channel 27,[70] using virtual channel 26.
From June 13, 2009, to January 9, 2011, WCIU-TV's main programming was simulcast on sister station WWME-CA (channel 23) to provide anightlight service as the low-power station continued to operate an analog signal. From June 13 to July 12, 2009, the station ran newscasts fromWMAQ-TV (channel 5) and WGN-TV for viewers that either were not ready for the digital transition or had problems receiving WGN and WMAQ's signals after the June 12 digital transition.[71] WWME-CA continued to operate an analog signal on UHF channel 23.
