Anyone watching this? It is pretty hilarious.

Premise is it is following people sitting in a jury on a trial but everyone is in on it beside 1 person. It is in LA so they even have a celebrity on the jury. James Marsden is an alternate on the jury, playing himself.

Just another inferior copy of The Jos Schmo Show.

Bumping this because this show is hilarious and the final 2 episodes just released. Definitely worth the watch

Phenomenal show. Perfectly done, and an even better finale.

I'll have to go try this one again. Watched the first episode with my wife and thought the actors were so over-the-top I would probably realize it was some kind of joke on the first day. I'm guessing it gets better.

Definitely over-the-top, and on purpose, but the genius is doing this in the "official" setting of a court case, jury duty, etc. The regular Joe thought everything was crazy, but would have no reason to suspect the entire thing was all a show. Great payoff at the end with behind the scenes looks, etc. Highly recommend.

Funny show. It was so absurd, and I didn't know anything about it going in, that I thought it was a "The Office" style, scripted, fake documentary and that the guy who didn't know actually knew but was acting like he didn't know. They found the perfect "mark" for this one.

Binged it yesterday. Was great. Ron was the perfect markthat's exactly what made this work. Marsden was hilarious but I was also really impressed with the other actors like Noah, the judge, and especially the bailiff.

Just finished this. So funny and I loved Ron! Such a great guy. All the actors were fabulous! The making of the turd made me laugh hysterically.

Just finished this. Great watch. Ronald might be the nicest guy ever. James Marsden jumping on the bed had me rolling. I have stopped watching shows with no likable characters. That was not an issue here.

I had never even heard of this show before today, and we just watched the first two episodes. Ho-lee-chit! Hilarious! I just keep imaging what my reactions and thoughts would be if I was the guy and thought it was all legit.

Don't read this thread until you finish the season!

Rofl when the one dude sat on his crutches in the middle of the jury and later popped out between all the manikins at the factory!

Just binged this over Memorial Day weekend. Highly recommend.

The no name actors did a fantastic job at not breaking at some of the more ridiculous parts.

On Episode 2 now with the defense attorney trying to show his animated video. Over the top silly, but bearable.

It was really funny and they must have done an evaluation on Ronald with a psychologist because he was the absolute perfect "mark". I think most people would have flown off the handle but he was just so nice and gullible. I don't know how he didn't figure it out on day 2, but it made for great entertainment.

James Marsden was amazing. This must have been so fun for him to do. I laughed so hard whenever they talked about Sonic The Hedgehog.

The video on his iPad made me die laughing. You could tell they had no idea that was coming.

There's so many good throwaway lines in the background. Like when the lady sends the lunch order to a Mexican restaurant that is closed and another guy says "just call another Mexican place, they'll have the same stuff."

They actually filmed it 3 times with 3 "marks". His was perfect. They were able to use scenes from all 3 times.

Marsden is the perfect type of celebrity for this. I would recognize him but probably not be able to place him in a specific role or movie. He played it really well. Definitely my favorite part of the show.
