KZJL (channel 61) is a television station in Houston, Texas, United States, broadcasting the Spanish-language network Estrella TV. It is owned and operated by Estrella Media and is sister to four radio stations. KZJL's studios are located on Bering Drive on the city's southwest side, and its transmitter is located near Missouri City, in unincorporated northeastern Fort Bend County.

The station first signed on the air on June 2, 1995, as an affiliate of home shopping network Shop at Home. In 2001, the station was purchased by Liberman Broadcasting (which was renamed Estrella Media in February 2020, following a corporate reorganization of the company under private equity firm HPS Investment Partners, LLC) and became a Spanish-language independent station; on September 14, 2009, KZJL became a charter owned-and-operated station of Liberman's Spanish-language broadcast network Estrella TV.
