KPSE-LD is the MyNetworkTV-affiliated television station for Southern California's Coachella Valley. Licensed to Palm Springs, it broadcasts a low-powered analog signal on UHF channel 29 from a transmitter on Edom Hill in Cathedral City. Owned by OTA Broadcasting, LLC (a company controlled by Michael Dell's MSD Capital), KPSE-LD is sister to NBC affiliate KMIR-TV and the two outlets share studios on Park View Drive in Palm Desert. Syndicated programming on this station includes The Big Bang Theory, Friends, 30 Rock, and The Office among others. The station can also be seen on Time Warner Cable channel 20.
The station signed-on January 3, 2000 as KPSE-LP on channel 50, the market's first locally based UPN affiliate. Owned by Mirage Media, it immediately replaced Los Angeles's KCOP-TV on Coachella Valley's Time Warner Cable system; until KPSE's launch, KCOP had served as UPN's de facto affiliate for Palm Springs. After UPN and The WB shut down and merged in 2006 to form The CW (which affiliated with KCWQ-LP and a subchannel of KESQ-TV), KPSE joined MyNetworkTV.
