Deadline Hollywood announced yesterday that HOLLISTON has been renewed for a second season after airing merely two episodes of it’s inaugural season.  The show’s first episode debuted in the #6 most watched/trending spot in all of television on GetGlue.com and last night’s episode (Episode 3 “Skunked”) reached all the way to #8 on the popular social media TV site.  “Holliston resonates with both genre junkies and more mainstream comedy fans alike, making our first push into original programming a successful attempt for diversifying our schedule and showing the breadth of our audience,” said FEARnet GM and president Peter Block. Returning alongside Green and Lynch for Season 2 are co-stars Laura Ortiz; Corri English, the lead singer of Brokedown Cadillac; Twisted Sister’s Dee Snider; and Oderus Urungus, lead singer of GWAR. Green said he has been “overjoyed” by the audience’s reaction to the show. “It’s amazing to watch the characters be embraced so quickly and to see fans quoting it on Twitter, Facebook and at conventions around the country,” he said.
