The new channels are Mystery TV, Inside Crime, History Hunters, Deal Masters, and World War TV.

This means Blaze app users will get to watch shows like Dickinson's Real Deal, Flipping Bangers, and Storage Wars.

The station already has an app filled with shows to watch on-demand, including Pawn Stars, Mountain Men, Ice Road Truckers, Storage Wars, American Restoration, The First 48 and Unusual Suspect.

The channels are provided by A+E Network, which only two months ago signed an agreement with Rakuten TV.

Blaze already offers TV watchers hit channels like The History Channel, Crime+Investigation.

The website is also set to receive an update that will allow viewers to get the same channels and shows no matter which device they are on.

Live streaming and catch-up is also available on the website.

Julie Mitchelmore, VP of Digital at A+E Networks EMEA, said: “We’re delighted to enhance the offering on our BLAZE streaming service with even more choices for viewers who want to enjoy the very best entertainment.”

In 2021, Blaze TV commissioned a poll that found a third of Brits thought the government were witholding information about UFOs.

Blaze TV is owned by Blaze Media, a politically conservative media company operating out of Texas and was founded by commentator Glenn Beck.
