KHOU-TV (Channel 11) is a CBS Broadcasting, Inc. affiliated television station, owned and operated by the Belo Corporation and was located here at 1945 Allen Parkway in Houston, Texas until early 2019. KHOU-TV moved to 5718 Westheimer at Bering.

The second oldest television station in the Houston area, KHOU signed on as KGUL-TV (as in "GULf" or "seaGULl"), in Galveston on March 23, 1953. It changed its call letters to KHOU in June 1959, and on April 20, 1960 the station's studio moved to its present location in Houston's Neartown neighborhood.
KHOU-TV has been widely regarded as a stepping stone for television news talent, as many of its reporters have gone on to assignments with national networks. The station's best known alumni are former CBS news anchor Dan Rather and newswomen Linda Ellerbee and Jessica Savitch.
