Roku tv screen shattered can I take the Roku out and use it on another tv?

So today my daughter knocked my insignia Roku tv over, it's completely **bleep**ed the whole screen is shattered. My question is is it possible to take the Roku out of this tv and use it on a regular non smart tv?

    No, there's no Roku within the TV. It's simply the operating system the TV manufacturer uses within their hardware. Sorry.

      Well I’m in a similar situation and was wondering if i could just transfer all the data from my broken tv to a new one.

        There is no data to transfer. Anything tied to your Roku user account will appear on every Roku device you link to your account. A Roku TV would have the local TV channels stored after you scan for them, but that would have to be done on any new TV.
