Although network TV has taken a back seat to streaming for many San Franciscans, those still tuning in to old-fashioned terrestrial television will see a significant change to their programming in the fall.

On Sept. 1, news station KRON4 will transition into an affiliate of the CW Network. The station is a part of Nexstar Media Group, which will also be transitioning two other stations to CW programming (WPHL in Philadelphia and WTTA in Tampa).

The shift means that KRON’s prime-time programming, which includes “Inside Edition” and “Entertainment Tonight” followed by three hours of local news, will change to include CW shows. KRON’s announcement cites several of the CW’s biggest offerings, including “Sullivan’s Crossing” and “Fboy Island,” which spent two seasons on HBO Max before being canceled and picked up by the CW (a spinoff titled “FGirl Island” is in the works for the fall). Some of the CW’s other most notable shows include “Riverdale” and the historical religious drama “The Chosen,” which is set to debut in July. CW sports programming, including “Inside the NFL,” will also move to KRON. Perhaps most notably, the network boasts exclusive rights to the newly merged LIV Golf league.

The station, which operates out of a building on the Embarcadero and broadcasts from an antenna on Sutro Tower, airs 72 hours of local news each week and won five SF Press Club awards in 2022. It has yet to be announced how this change will affect staffing in the newsroom; however, the news comes shortly after veteran anchor Pam Moore announced her retirement.
