Gray Media has launched new seasons of “Investigate TV Plus” and “Aging Untold” while expanding “The Good Side” to a Monday-through-Friday schedule.

Investigate TV Plus (stylized as InvestigateTV+) returns for its fourth season with Lee Zurik and Tisha Powell as hosts. The investigative news magazine program airs across Gray Media-owned local TV stations and in several non-Gray markets through pacts with broadcasters like CBS News & Stations and TEGNA, allowing the show to reach more than 72 percent of U.S. television households.

Gray said the program reached nearly 13 million adults 18 and older during the 2025-26 season, according to Nielsen. The Investigate TV team also recently received a National Edward R. Murrow Award. Segments from the program are available on YouTube.

Aging Untold enters its second season after debuting in March. The 30-minute program focuses on practical guidance for older adults and caregivers, with returning experts Sam Cradduck, Amy Cameron O’Rourke, Katherine Ambrose and Dr. Rhea Rogers.

The show reached more than seven million adults 18 and older during its first season and is now cleared in nearly 40 percent of the country, including additional non-Gray markets.

The Good Side, which began as a weekend program, is shifting to weekdays. Debra Alfarone and new co-host Graham Ulkins will lead the show, which focuses on uplifting stories, community figures and regional features.

“We are thrilled to return such a strong weekday lineup with these three exceptional programs that inform, inspire and empower our audiences,” Sandy Breland, Gray’s Chief Operating Officer, said in a statement on Tuesday.

Gray Media owns local TV stations in nearly 120 markets across the country, including 101 markets where Gray operates the first- or second-highest rated news-producing station.
