[1] NBC LX Home is available on over-the-top for Peacock, FuboTV, Xumo, Samsung TV Plus, and to viewers of The Roku Channel, social media and via its website.

The channel's roots trace back to 2009 when NBCUniversal's previous news & lifestyle multicast network NBC Nonstop (now known as classic TV-formatted Cozi TV) was launched on its owned and operated station group, mostly on NBC-O&O affiliates that previously carried NBC Weather Plus.

[5] With the broadcast network and streaming television channel, there will be two live programming blocks (7-10 AM and PM) of three hour daily newscasts produced at KXAS.

LX programming originally came from station groups and the owned and separately operated LXTV Productions, with the expectation to license additional content to fill out the day.

[4] NBCU stations' desire to reach younger audiences led to the creation of the LX content brand.

On September 23, 2019, the station group launched its LX news digitally initially on YouTube, its website and social media.

As of February 2023[update], LX (now NBC American Crimes as of July 2024) has current or pending affiliation agreements with 58 television stations in 54 media markets encompassing 31 states and the District of Columbia, reaching 59.1% (or a total population of 184,684,608 residents) of all households in the United States that own at least one television set.
