KING 5 Evening Magazine’s Kim Holcomb announces:
It feels surreal to post this but I’m making a major life change: I’ve decided to not renew my contract and I’m leaving KING & Evening. I’m so proud of everything I’ve accomplished during my almost 18 years at the station, and I’m eternally grateful for every viewer who’s watched and supported our show. But, a lot has changed in the past 1.5 years and I feel like it’s time to step away, move forward and try something different (which sounds like a weird jig but YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN.) I’m not sure what comes next, but I’m thrilled to find out! Thanks for being a part of my little life.
Thanks to EstoyListo for the heads up on this story!

Why not share why Kim is leaving?
What did the KING 5 CEOs do to her?
We love her, we love all of Evening,
But…
All of the City of Seattle is going down tubes, rules are ignored, crime is rampant, so I hope she will go somewhere safe and enjoy.

Yea it will come out soon. Read between the lines. Kim will be hard to replace. Bit I guess I said the same about John Curley!

I’ve been watching Evening Show since it’s inception. Kim is by far my favorite.! Sorry to see her go.

Sorry to see Kim leave. She is a true asset to Evening Magazine. We have been watching it since it began with Penny and Brian. I saw her on Amity’s program today and sounded like she might know what she will be up to but couldn’t say or maybe I was just reading something into the conversation.
All the best to you, Kim. You will truly be missed.

Will miss Kim. Who is bigger disappointment King 5 or Mariners.
Joe • July 24, 2024
Mariners. They are a garbage franchise. I wish Stanton would sell to an owner that cares about winning.

For someone like Kim to leave after so many years at a job she loves — there must be a problem at KING 5 no one is speaking about.

Going on what the stated hiring objectives of KING 5 are, Kim’s “exit” comes as no surprise. I always thought she did a good job and was largely responsible for it’s success.
Vanessa Pearson • July 23, 2024
So sorry to see Kim leaving KING 5. She is a fabulous member of the evening trio and her comments are well said. She is polished, professional and charming as an evening television host. Best Wishes in the future Kim!

Pay her and give her whatever she wants. She is an asset you can not afford to lose.
Elizabeth Lang • July 23, 2024
Oh I will miss her! All The Best!!
