KIEM-TV (channel 3) is a television station in Eureka, California, United States, affiliated with NBC.

The two stations share studios on South Broadway in Spruce Point near the southwestern corner of Eureka; KIEM-TV's transmitter is located along Kneeland Road southeast of the city.

KIEM-TV was initially affiliated with CBS; however, as the only station in the market in its early years, it also provided programs from NBC, ABC, and DuMont (which folded in 1955).

After KVIQ signed on in 1958 and became the NBC affiliate, both stations offered some ABC programming on a part-time basis.

Full-time NBC coverage was provided by San Francisco's then-NBC affiliate KRON on area cable systems.

Lost Coast, in turn, assigned its right to acquire the station to Redwood Television Partners, a subsidiary of Brian Brady's Northwest Broadcasting, on August 15.

[13] On March 29, 2022, Cox Media Group announced it would sell KIEM-TV, KVIQ-LD and 16 other stations to Imagicomm Communications, an affiliate of the parent company of the INSP cable channel, for $488 million;[14] the sale was completed on August 1.

[1] As of November 2013, KIEM signed off every Sunday morning at 1 a.m., and Monday morning at 12:35 a.m., and resumes broadcast at 5 a.m. During sign-off and sign-on, KIEM broadcast a classic sequence, which includes the old blue "3" logo with the NBC peacock logo and the station ID, which is licensed to the city.
