KZCS-LD, virtual and UHF digital channel 18, is a Court TV Mystery owned-and-operated television station licensedtoColorado Springs, Colorado, United States. Owned by the E. W.

Master control and most internal operations are based at the studios of ABC affiliate KMGH-TV (channel 7) on East Speer Boulevard in Denver's Congress Park neighborhood (the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) considers KMGH-TV as the parent license of KZCS-LD).
