On (at least) Roku, there is a Local Now channel you can add, that has a channel devoted entirely to "Funny You Should Ask" reruns. Not surprising as it looks like Byron Allen's TV empire may have a hand in this channel.
It does. Local Now started as a Weather Channel spinoff, with local weather, news, sports, traffic & even restaurant review bits based on the viewer’s zip code, mixed in with national news updates & lifestyle videos. They still have the original Local Now channel, but a few months ago they added a Pluto-like streaming service with additional channels. Much of the additional content is from Allen Group, but they’ve brought some outside channels on board as well—BUZZR being one of them.
And yeah, Local Now is available on pretty much all the major streaming devices.
Looking through the Pluto TV listings, it appears the Tween channel shows old Nick games like Hidden Temple and Figure It Out. They also show 5th Grader, but unsure which version.
The Cena/Nick version, I’m sure… unless they’ve just signed an agreement to start running Foxworthy’s versions as well.

On another note… Looking at lists like these, as well as their movie offerings, it’s a bit striking that Sony has so many streaming outlets, but nothing for their massive classic game show library. I know they had a few J! eps on Crackle when they owned that service, but nothing to speak of since. I suppose they could always launch their own BUZZR-like streaming channel; but it seems that if they had the appetite to do that, they’d have done so instead of Game Show Central, Escape Perfecto & the like. (It’s one reason that personally I
don’t buy into the idea that Sony classics could never in a million years show up on BUZZR—but that’s probably for another discussion.)
