Want to see what your favorite T.V. writes and actors were up to during the writers' strike? The "strike.tv" beta version goes online next week, offering over 40 original web series from cast members of shows including The Daily Show, Saturday Night Live and The Office. The shows were created and filmed while actors and writers were striking, in part, to negotiate better compensation for the use of online content.

Most of the offerings are comedies (what do you expect from the The Daily Show and Saturday Night Live?), but there will be some dramatic series as well, such as With the Angels, a 36-part series about an Arkansas native who learns about herself and life when she makes the move to Venice Beach, California.

All profits generated in the first three months on air will be donated to a fund for broadcast T.V. crew members who suffered financial hardship during the strike.
