The Try Guys is an American online comedy series currently available for streaming on YouTube. The series stars comedians, actors, and filmmakers Keith Habersberger, Ned Fulmer, Zach Kornfeld, and Eugene Lee Yang. The group created the Try Guys while working for BuzzFeed and subsequently separated themselves from the internet media company in 2018. The four of them write, produce, direct, shoot, and act in each episode. 2Background The group was formed at Buzzfeed in 2014 by four then-employees: Ned Fulmer, Eugene Lee Yang, Keith Habersberger, and Zach Kornfeld. The original video that starred all four men was based around pure timing and, according to Kornfeld, "It really came down to who was willing to show their butts." At the start of the series, they attempted to involve other people in the project, to no avail. However, with the extremely positive feedback from viewers, the group decided to stick together and create videos. In 2018, the group launched an independent production company named 2nd Try LLC, under which the group gained all rights to The Try Guys brand, such as its social media presence. The group promised, with the new company, "a brand-spankin' new slate of digital shows, live tours, feature films, and hopefully someday, customizable toasters."They started in 2014 when they posted "Guys Try Ladies' Underwear for the First Time" under Buzzfeed Motion Pictures. Since then, their viral videos have garnered over a billion views across social media platform
