WWJ-TV (fictional)

WWJ-TV, virtual channel 62 (UHF digital channel 21), is a CBS owned-and-operated television station licensed to Detroit, Michigan, United States. The station is owned by the CBS Television Stations subsidiary of ViacomCBS, as part of a duopoly with CW owned-and-operated station WKBD-TV (channel 50). The two stations share studios on 11 Mile Road in the Detroit suburb of Southfield; WWJ-TV's transmitter is located in Oak Park, Michigan.

The station is carried on several Canadian cable providers, predominantly in Southwestern Ontario, and is one of five local Detroit television stations seen in Canada on satellite provider Shaw Direct.

On cable, the station is available in standard definition on channel 15 on Comcast Xfinity's Detroit city and Wayne County systems and Cogeco's Windsor system, channel 9 on Xfinity's South Oakland County system, channel 14 on most cable systems in outlying areas (except for WOW!, where it is carried on channel 6), channel 62 on AT&T U-verse, and in high definition on Xfinity channel 233, Cogeco channel 713, and U-verse channel 1062.

WWJ was notable for its brief weather forecast at 11 p.m. tying in a pun referencing its succeeding show, which began with the meteorologist saying "Two and a Half Men starts in two and a half minutes." This timeslot was filled by The Big Bang Theory reruns until September 2017, when Two and a Half Men was brought back to the station's late night lineup (the fall of 2018 saw the CBS-distributed Entertainment Tonight replace it). Though the forecast segment remains at 2½ minutes, at one point, viewers were invited to submit videos of themselves saying the mentioned phrase, which were then played in a montage before each forecast.

News operations
On January 17, 2020, CBS Television Stations announced that they will be introducing weekday morning and 4:00 p.m. weekday newscasts for WWJ-TV, produced by sister station WCBS-TV; the program debuted February 17. In March 2020, following the temporary shutdown of the CBS Broadcast Center during the COVID-19 pandemic in New York City, WWJ-TV began simulcasting newscasts from sister station WBBM-TV; during this period, Detroit-specific content, outside of national reports from the area provided by CBS News, was limited to WWJ's news ticker and the First Forecast weather segments. In July 2020, WWJ's CBS 62 News newscasts were relaunched, with production shifted to, sister station KCNC-TV.
