Canadians have been hip to making web series for years now, with some of the best indies coming out of the country up North—Tiki Bar TV, Riese, After Judgment, A Comicbook Orange all hail from Canadian creators. Appropriately, there's a site dedicated to showcasing the country's episodic work. Lifeforce TV launched a year ago as an online network of Canadian web series. Today they've rolled out what they are calling "Version 2" of the network and have three new series on the lineup. Two scripted comedies Saving Rent (above) and The Jim are on the list, with music and film interview series Independent Scene rounding out the new slate. Behind the site is Toronto-based Lifeforce Entertainment, which produces original web series itself like last year's Men's Room, Angels Local 437 and the controversial chat show Table Topics. All three of the new series have been licensed from independent creators, in a revenue sharing deals.
