Main issues include salary and staffing levels
If you're a fan of late-night TV, expect to see some re-runs of your favourite shows starting tonight.
Over 11,000 film and TV writers represented by the Writers Guild of America went on strike earlier today.
This could have a significant effect on TV and film productions, depending on how long it lasts.
Late night shows like "The Daily Show" and "The Tonight Show", which have writers who create jokes and monologues for their hosts, are the first to feel the fallout, with many such programs going dark this week.
The strike also brings broadcast programs, streaming shows and some films to a standstill.
The main sticking points include salary and staffing levels.
