KSHB-TV, virtual channel 41 (UHF digital channel 42), is an NBC-affiliated television station serving the area of Kansas City, Missouri and Kansas City, Kansas in the United States. The station is owned by the E. W. Scripps Company, as part of a duopoly with independent station KMCI-TV (channel 38). The two stations share studio facilities located on Oak Street in southern Kansas City, Missouri; KSHB maintains transmitter facilities located at the Blue River Greenway in the city's Hillcrest section. On cable, KSHB is available on Comcast channel 8, Charter Communications and SureWest channel 13, and AT&T U-verse channel 41.

KSHB-TV also serves as an alternate NBC affiliate for the Saint Joseph market (which borders the northern portions of the Kansas City Designated Market Area), as its transmitter produces a city-grade signal that reaches Saint Joseph proper and rural areas in the market's central and southern counties. KSHB had previously served as the default NBC affiliate for Saint Joseph from its assumption of the Kansas City affiliation rights from WDAF-TV (channel 4) in September 1994, until locally based KNPG-LD (channel 21) switched its primary affiliation from The CW to NBC on November 1, 2016.
