WWWB
WWWB-TV, Channel 55, (known on-air as Charlotte's WB), is The WB affiliate in Charlotte. It is carried on Channel 12 on most cable systems. It is co-owned with UPN affiliate WJZY. Even though it is licensed to Rock Hill, it is based out of WJZY's studios in north Charlotte.
It started in 1994 as WFVT, an independent station operated by WJZY through a local marketing agreement. It became a charter WB affiliate in 1995, and shortly after that rebranded itself as "WB55." Capitol Broadcasting of Raleigh, WJZY's owner, bought WFVT outright in 2000 after the FCC relaxed ownership restrictions and changed the calls to WWWB in 2001--calls that had originally been held by a station in Tampa Bay.
