The expanded newscast will air from 3 to 4pm with Andy Cerota and Rachel Briers while Caroline Brown is on maternity leave, replacing the Entertainment Tonight rerun that had occupied the 3:30pm half-hour.
The expansion comes three years after KPRC 2 first launched its 3pm newscast. The half-hour KPRC 2 News at 3 debuted on September 11, 2023, replacing Dr. Phil in the afternoon lineup.
The original 3pm team included anchors Andy Cerota and Lisa Hernandez, along with meteorologist Justin Stapleton, who has since moved to the station's morning newscasts.
ABC13 KTRK debuted 3pm news in 2018. The Channel 13 3pm news remains a half-hour.
