‘Greg & Donny’ Back With Farmville Additions and A New Season

Greg & Donny have discovered Farmville. It was only a matter of time. Today the hick comedy web series returns for its second season with “Greg the Farmer,” proving that no internet phenomenon is out of reach of these knuckleheads.

Together the duo of Jeff Skowron and Matt Yeager, the creators and stars of the series, make up Puddinhead Brothers on YouTube. Skowron stars as Greg and Yeager as Donny, two Western Pennsylvania yokels discovering the wonders of the internet. Pittsburgh accents FTW.

Yeager’s also part of the team at Dinosaur Diorama, which brought some of the early NY-based web comedies to national spotlight, like hipster-loving The Burg

, RenFaire moc-doc All’s Faire and Vuguru’s branded indie rock road trip The All-For-Nots. Not surprisingly, fellow Burg creator Thom Woodley directs Greg & Donny. UPDATE: While Woodley directs many episodes, this new episode (above) is directed by the third Dinosaur Diorama partner, Johnny North.

The series is an official selection at the New York Television Festival (NYTVF) later this month, which means some big screen action for our favorite web hicks.

And until episode two drops, here’s one of our favorites from Season 1:
