The acclaimed comedy series Jury Duty, often described as a cross between The Office and The Truman Show, is making a return with a new season titled Jury Duty Presents: Company Retreat. The show, which originally aired in 2023, blends reality television, sitcom, and mockumentary elements, featuring a fictional court case where all participants except one are actors.
The first season followed Ronald, who believed the entire trial was real. It earned an 84% critic score and a 96% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes, with fans praising its wholesome humour and unique concept. One viewer called it 'addictive right from the very start' and another described it as 'incredible reality television, a boundary-pushing hidden-camera program.'
The new season shifts the setting to a corporate offsite at a family-owned hot sauce company. Anthony, a recently hired temporary worker, is unaware that every colleague and moment is staged. As the founder prepares to step down, the retreat becomes a clash between big corporate ambitions and small business values.
Early reviews have been positive, with one viewer calling it 'the return of Prime Video's best original series' and another saying it is 'deliciously unhinged.' The show maintains its formula of introducing a hero, escalating wacky situations, and blending sitcom-style jokes with improvisation and reality-style narrative.
Jury Duty Presents: Company Retreat streams on Prime Video from March 20, releasing in three batches. The series is expected to deliver both laughs and emotional moments, with viewers encouraged to rewatch to catch missed jokes.
