KHII-TV
On March 7, 2006, Raycom Media announced that KFVE would affiliate with MyNetworkTV as part of a group deal involving many of Raycom-owned affiliates of The WB and UPN (whose consolidation and shutdowns the following September resulted in the creation of The CW Television Network, which would affiliate in Hawaii with a digital subchannel of KHON-TV). KFVE officially joined MyNetworkTV on September 5, 2006 and did not air The WB's final two weeks of prime-time programming (though it continued to air WB daytime and Saturday morning programming until the end of the network's existence).
KOTA-TV
Heritage Media announced in September 1995 that it would sell KEVN-TV and KIVV-TV to Blackstar, LLC, a minority-controlled company in which nonvoting equity interests were held by Fox Television Stations and Silver King Communications, for $14 million; the deal was completed on February 7, 1996. Blackstar immediately announced that KEVN would drop NBC and join Fox. the affiliation change happened in July 1996. Prior to then, Fox programming was seen in the market primarily via cable carriage of either Denver affiliate KDVR or the national Foxnet service, while KOTA-TV had a secondary affiliation with Fox since 1994 to carry the network's coverage of the National Football League. The move left the Black Hills without an over-the-air NBC affiliate, and the region did not get another over-the-air NBC affiliate until Rapid signed on KNBN-LP (now KWBH-LP, channel 27) two years later in 1998, but did not upgrade to the full-power KNBN (channel 21) until May 2000. In the interim, cable systems in the market piped in NBC's Denver affiliate, KUSA-TV.
