Summary

  • Game shows Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy! will be available to stream on Hulu and Peacock in September under a new multi-year deal.
  • New episodes will be available on both streaming services a day after they air on linear TV, in addition to older shows.
  • The shows’ expansion to streaming comes as part of a broader trend bringing key TV shows to streaming platforms, including WWE’s Monday Night Raw.
  • The streaming deal was made separate from a legal battle between show producer Sony and distributor CBS, which was contracted to distribute the shows and has allegedly failed to boost revenue from licences of the shows.
  • Sony sued CBS over the issue in 2024, with a judge granting Sony rights to distribute the shows in April 2025, but an appeal overturned the decision last week, allowing CBS to continue distributing the shows during the legal battle.
