WFXU (channel 57) is a television station licensed to Live Oak, Florida, United States, serving the Tallahassee, FloridaThomasville, Georgia market as an affiliate of MeTV. It is owned by Gray Television alongside Thomasville-licensed dual CBS/MyNetworkTV affiliate WCTV (channel 6). Both stations share studios on Halstead Boulevard in Tallahassee (along I-10), while WFXU's transmitter is located in Hamilton County, Florida, between Jasper and Jennings.

Due to its transmitter being located on the eastern fringe of the Tallahassee–Thomasville market, WFXU's signal is unable to reach Tallahassee proper. In order to serve the entire market, WFXU is relayed on the second digital subchannel of WCTV (virtual channel 6.2, UHF digital channel 20.2) from that station's transmitter in unincorporated Thomas County, Georgia, southeast of Metcalf, along the Florida state line. This is the source of WFXU's on-air branding, WCTV 2.
