KNBS

:For the real-life radio station on 94.1 FM in Bowling Green, Missouri, see on Wikipedia.
 (channel 4) is a television station in Paradise City, California, United States, airing programming from the NBC network. It is owned and operated by the network's NBC Owned Television Stations division.
==History==
From 1980 until 1982, in response to NBC's "We're Loud!" parody video it had created for its 1980 Christmas tape, KNBS had deleted the NBC logo from its logo and replaced the peacock with a text-only logo that was created for KNBS. The peacock remained deleted from the KNBS logo in idents, promos, and bumpers until the official end of the 1981-1982 television season in May 1982. From October 1988 until May 1992, KNBS replaced the 1986 NBC logo in its logo with another text-only logo made specifically for KNBS. With the exception of idents and promos, the peacock was nowhere to be seen in the KNBS logo and its bumpers until the official end of the 1991-1992 television season in May 1992.
KNBS also holds the title as both the first television station in Paradise City and one of the earliest in the state of California.
