In 2003, Jury Duty was the surprise television hit of the year—a show where everyone but one person was in on the prank. The prank was that he thought he had been called for jury duty, but he was not. It was just made to look that way.
Jury Duty is back on Prime Video, but this time the lone non-actor is a temp assisting on a Company Retreat. Poor Anthony does not know what he signed up for when he agreed to be Kevin’s assistant the week of the retreat.
Rockin’ Grandma’s Hot Sauce is a small company where all the employees are like a family. Doug is the boss, and he is retiring after the retreat. He is giving the business to his son, Dougie. Dougie is a screw-up who has no idea what he is doing. He has also been away in Jamaica for a few years, so the staff doesn’t really know him. He needs to prove himself, but he keeps doing the opposite.
If this was not enough, a documentary crew is there recording everything. This way, Anthony will not question why there are cameras everywhere. However, he will rightfully be questioning everything else.
In the first episode, Kevin proposes to his co-worker, Amy, at the retreat, and he asks Anthony to help with the proposal. What could go wrong? She says no! Kevin is so embarrassed that he goes home, leaving Anthony in charge of the retreat.
How will he handle this group of lovable misfits who would be so much fun to work with? And things get more complicated when he finds out Doug wants to sell the business.
With all of that going on, the actors have been given some weird scenarios to test Anthony. These things are so unbelievable that he keeps saying, “You can’t write this stuff.”
But they can, and they did. Will he figure it out before the big reveal? The first three episodes of Jury Duty Presents: Company Retreat are out now on Prime Video for free, the next two episodes premiere on Friday, and the final three drop the Friday after that.
