KPRC-TV (Channel 2)is a VHF television station affiliated with the NBC television network, owned and operated by Post-Newsweek Stations (a subsidiary of the Washington Post Company), located in the Sharpstown District of Houston, Texas.

The station first went on the air on January 1, 1949, as KLEE-TV, and was the first television station in Houston (and the 12th in the United States). On June 1, 1950, KLEE-TV was purchased by the Hobby family, owners of the Houston Post newspaper, who had signed on KPRC Radio in 1925 as Houston's first radio station. The television station's call letters were changed to match its radio cousin on July 3, 1950.
