I love that it's not a cruel prank, they're not putting him on the spot... He's basically just witnessing absolute madness and reacting to it/slightly participating in it. Usually when there's clueless participants the joke's on them and we laugh at how gullible they are and how much they suffer, but iin this case it's just adorable and we sympathise with him
The fact that James Mardsen was cool with playing himself as an asshole elite actor is one hilarious and two makes me imagine hes a pretty cool guy in real life

No cus I would definitely cry alone in my room afterwards wondering what I did to not get a crane, then cry again for Ravi being so sweet and giving me one
I've been watching it since it came out and I was shocked how few ppl had heard that it was coming out. Also Ronald saying the he heard sonic wasn't good just killed me.
I gotta imagine as an actor that had to be one of the coolest roles to do . Not a huge movie or anything. But would be crazy being a part of an experiment like this . Not too sure how id feel being the non actor .
They are all actors though, it's just that James Marsden is conventionally famous, since he's been in some blockbuster movies and had some lead roles in them. I recognise some of the other actors from various minor TV show roles.

Imagine if he connected with someone romantically while shooting the show and she had to stay in character while falling for this guy and he was in love with her fictional character.
Just like in the Joe Schmo Show they would write her into friends zoning him and shoving this other guy in his face with how much she was in love with someone else, like the judge or something. 😂
Yea, and he ended up banging her. Again and again. But it was really just her character and in the show conclusion she broke it to him that the producers just told her to be slutty as she could, but in reality she felt nothing for him and in real life she was married.
There were actually 3 famous people in this show, and I'm surprised this dude didn't pick up on that. But, having said that: what's crazy about meeting a celebrity, is that you don't expect to meeting them "going to the grocery store", so you don't always recognize them. I met Rick Fox at a convention a few years ago when I worked at Curse. I was meeting up with a guy I was networking with, and he pulled me into the Twitch booth to say hi. He just happened to be standing next to Rick Fox. And Rick says "hi, I'm Rick!" And I was like "yea, we've met. I met you at Pax" And he's like "oooh yea, ok, nice to see you again!" And about an hour later, I was like "holy crap, that was Rick Fox" When I saw him, in my head I was like "he looks familiar, I think he popped into the Exhibitors Lounge last time...." Nope... he looked "familiar"... because I've seen his face on TV 1000 times! I've met a few celebs before, and recognized them instantly. Said hi and what not. But for some reason with him, I was just like "yea we met dude... how do you not remember me?" LOL
If you guys haven’t watched this whole series, I seriously recommend it. Out of all streaming services and movies that have come out lately, this is been one of the only entertaining things I’ve watched in like the past two years.
I got selected for a jury once. The mundane aspects in this show are so true! I was also a criminal defendant later, so i had to sit through so many other people's motions while waiting for them to call me. The normal day to day chit chat between the judge and the court workers is also very spot on here. Laughing my ass off
I'm glad he's only a slightly hyperbolic version of himself as James. But the dude legitimately engaged and was fully vested in the entire process. I had no idea about this show. Thanks for promoting it. Gotta sit through the whole thing now.
I know he’s not the biggest star or anything, but I’m surprised how casual the main guy is with talking to James Marsden. I’d definitely be a bit flustered if I had to talk to an actor I recognized.
Goes to show how easy it is for someone to trick you into coming for a fake business opportunity, and now an entire room of people are lying to you for fun
You should do a video on Nasubi. This show reminds me of him. It was basically a Japanese game show where they took this guy and made him live off sweepstakes. Made him start out naked. And they taped it all. When he finally got enough sweepstakes to end the show, they decided to start all over again. Then when he did it again, they presented him to a live studio audience, naked. All the while Nasubi had no idea what was actually going on. Obviously Ronald isn't being taped naked, but for whatever reason this reminded me of that event.
Cause its controlling someone else's entire life and environment and shaping it to your whim? And they only ever ended that show about Nasubi because he got too good at winning sweepstakes and was able to win several pieces of entertainment and the show essentially became watching him play video games XD
8:51 her “when I got the assignment” comment was so underrated and hilarious. There’s 100% absolutely true crime people who would call jury duty an “assignment”. “Yeah, I’ve worked in the criminal field previously”.
And it "failed" because they try to put him in compromising situations but he was just a good dude, having all the actors feeling down and depressed near the end of the show cause now they felt shitty for the reveal to someone who they came to like and bond with lol
A few decades ago I saw this television show that was a contest like The Apprentice, except it was fake. Only the contestants didn't know it was fake, and they would be put through ridiculous challenges and even have like the host's wife hitting on them and stuff. It was hilarious, and this reminds me a lot of that show.
@@burp2019 I’m assuming that they would maybe do it in another state or something? Tbh if I were in Ronald’s situation in my geographical area the last thing I’d guess would be that it’s all fake for a show😂
This video literally got me to binge the entire show, then watch this video, and then browse your streams for more reactions to the next episodes. And I've literally never used twitch before.
This whole show was incredible, anyone that has prime video should definitely give the whole thing a watch😂😂 glad someone with an audience is giving it exposure cause we need other things like this
“peter pretends to be racist to get out of jury duty” “that’s pretty smart” 🤭 what is this exchange… my head would be spinninggg like i’m in a twilight zone!
That title reminded me of that one Show called like the "Joe Schmoe show?" Started as a prank show being mean, turned pretty wholesome cuz the Actors got attached to said guy, cuz he's pretty nice
Awesome concept. I always wanted to make a movie that follows an unsuspecting actor cast in a fake, utterly ludicrous movie through a real audition. The entire rest of the production would be in on it (except for extras, because why would they need to be). Most of it would play out in the style of a behind the scenes documentary.
This show is so good. I cracked up so much - especially the chair pants - Ronald explaining to the court security “They’re a chair for him.” Just dead serious. It’s like taking a new story & merging the filming styles of the (American) office and curb your enthusiasm - It’s like..successfully Americanized British Humor.
I remember getting called for jury duty last year... and just 24 hours before the day it was cancelled, and I was considered having served my time on jury duty.. was crazy... I was soo nervous about it then I was free,, for two years..
I saw Mekki Leeper and knew I wanted to tune in. I love his stand up. It’s funny because he’s actually North African and he had the bit about not being racist hahaha
If you ever want to get out of jury duty just ask this question to the judge, "nullification is an option, correct?". You'll be let go so quick. Courts hate when any juror is aware of the concept.
I loved this show! The actors were so good and they couldn’t have picked a better guy to prank. Ronald’s a sweet dude and lowkey inspirational for being a good bro
I think this is one of the most effective mock scenarios I’ve ever seen. It’s so well set up it’s kinda like an experiment. It’s fascinating to see his reactions and to see when and how he engages
I would love to be involved with something like this! It wouldn't work for me though, 'cause I recognized most of the actors immediately! They definitely picked THE perfect guy for this! Such a big heart and just amazing dude overall! ❤
the rub one out guy is a stuntman / actor Brandon Loeser… friend of our family, hes been running a stuntman performer Christmas comedy play for over a decade… he’s got a bunch of funny comedy out there 😂
you think there's no way this guy could be that gullible but i actually had one friend in highschool who was literally this gullible. like, we could get him to fall for the same prank multiple times. we would play Uno at lunch and every time he went to the bathroom we would rig the game so we could stack all the plus 2's on him. it took at least a couple weeks before he caught on.
I loved the Joe Schmoe Show, so maybe I should watch this. I highly recommend Joe Schmoe, btw. It's like 20 years old now. It's a "competition" reality TV show where only one of the contestants is real, and everyone else is an actor messing with him. The main guy in that show is super likeable and nice to everyone, and so the actors feel bad after a while for messing with him so much, so they actually tone it down a bit in the later episodes.
That show is kind of hard to watch though, since originally, the premise was, as you say, to "mess with" the guy. This one feel's like his has a better premise.
“A vacation isn’t a reason to be excused” when I was on jury selection, the judge dismissed like 5 people because of vacations and camping trips. Luckily I didn’t get picked bc it was a m*rder trial and I wouldn’t have been able to handle it
istg, im not even exaggerating, i have never laughed so many times in a series that i've watched more than this show, like seriously, holy shit...i mainly wanted to watch this show because of Ronald because i saw some snippets of him from tiktok and that he is such a nice guy and such a cutie too, i also saw some funny clips there but i didnt know almost everything in the show is that hilarious, i was scolded by my housemates so many times for laughing so hard in front of my screen. hahaha
This existed already in 2003! Via the “Joe Schmoe Show” where everyone is a paid actor/actress except for one person. The entire series is on CZcams and it ran for two seasons. (It wasn’t about jury but the same concept)
there’s another thing similar to the truman show in real life-it was a social experiment about crowd mentality and anonymity. The audience got to vote on whether something good or bad happened to the guy on the show.
14:52 I'm from Oregon and the whole time I was watching the show I kept thinking he acts a lot like everyone I know, so tbh I wouldn't be surprised if he had lived here and gone to school here. As a side note...I could see myself as well as some friends falling for this if its done right. Its not that they or I are dumb (well to be fair I may be a little behind on street smarts, I focused on academics a lot and was sheltered x.x), but because I'd be so nervous to have a camera in my face and be in a courtroom that I might not pick up on some of the things that would normally seem too out there.
I love that it's not a cruel prank, they're not putting him on the spot... He's basically just witnessing absolute madness and reacting to it/slightly participating in it. Usually when there's clueless participants the joke's on them and we laugh at how gullible they are and how much they suffer, but iin this case it's just adorable and we sympathise with him

This video literally got me to binge the entire show, then watch this video, and then browse your streams for more reactions to the next episodes. And I've literally never used twitch before.
The funny thing is... Ronald is also an ACTOR. It's the viewers that have no idea.
It really feels like The Office vibes with the camera movements and how it looks.
Gunnar there is a show like this already called the Joe Schmo show and it’s freakin perfect for you to review
Ronald is such a team player. Love this dude.
Gunner, you just reminded me that I need to sit down and watch the Truman show sometime because I’ve always heard it’s good
It's a classic, imo the best Jim Carrey film. It still holds up today and there's so much subtle things to pick up on in the rewatch to.
This whole show was incredible, anyone that has prime video should definitely give the whole thing a watch😂😂 glad someone with an audience is giving it exposure cause we need other things like this
I binged the entire series today, it was amazing!!
“peter pretends to be racist to get out of jury duty” “that’s pretty smart” 🤭 what is this exchange… my head would be spinninggg like i’m in a twilight zone!
That title reminded me of that one Show called like the "Joe Schmoe show?" Started as a prank show being mean, turned pretty wholesome cuz the Actors got attached to said guy, cuz he's pretty nice
Awesome concept. I always wanted to make a movie that follows an unsuspecting actor cast in a fake, utterly ludicrous movie through a real audition. The entire rest of the production would be in on it (except for extras, because why would they need to be). Most of it would play out in the style of a behind the scenes documentary.
maybe it's because it's 4 am but i nearly died laughing at that animation ffs the music was so fitting
I just finished this show with my partner and we laughed every single episode. Great stuff great stuff
This show is so good. I cracked up so much - especially the chair pants - Ronald explaining to the court security “They’re a chair for him.” Just dead serious. It’s like taking a new story & merging the filming styles of the (American) office and curb your enthusiasm - It’s like..successfully Americanized British Humor.
I remember getting called for jury duty last year... and just 24 hours before the day it was cancelled, and I was considered having served my time on jury duty.. was crazy... I was soo nervous about it then I was free,, for two years..
They did this before actually. The guy who plays rickety cricket on its always sunny was on it.
Whats it called?
@@mixingpaint7724 Average Joe I think
@@mixingpaint7724 The Joe Schmo Show
15:29 "10 am Santa's coming" "SANTA!!!" That part made me laugh so hard, very unexpected LOL XD
the fact that kirk fox is on this show makes me want to watch it. Hes a legend in my book
I would’ve recognized him before James 😂
I saw Mekki Leeper and knew I wanted to tune in. I love his stand up. It’s funny because he’s actually North African and he had the bit about not being racist hahaha
Sewage Joe!!!
This can't be real. This has to be a show. No way Ronald wasn't in on it.
Dude this show had me laughing start to finish. If you haven't seen it yet, SEE IT! It's like 6 hours total for all episodes.
If you ever want to get out of jury duty just ask this question to the judge, "nullification is an option, correct?". You'll be let go so quick.
Courts hate when any juror is aware of the concept.
Can't believe my boy Mekki Leeper wasn't allowed to go on that unsupervised trip with his girlfriend. :(
He just hasn't been the same since Vaev
Totally been done before though: The Joe Schmo Show, basically a Big Brother kinda show but all actors except for one dude. Compelling TV, honestly.
Unironically if you just say that you dont like cops its a high chance they wont want you to be in the jury
I loved this show! The actors were so good and they couldn’t have picked a better guy to prank. Ronald’s a sweet dude and lowkey inspirational for being a good bro
I love it, I want a season 2 at the dmv or a doctors waiting room 😂
This feels like The Office, but in a court setting. Like everything about it feels similar. I love it. I would unironically watch a bunch of this.
this show is officially part of the westworld canon and no one will convince me otherwise
my favorite part is when that one guy said "its like were always eating and occasionally interrupted by court"
you better upload more of this show Gunnar
I think this is one of the most effective mock scenarios I’ve ever seen. It’s so well set up it’s kinda like an experiment. It’s fascinating to see his reactions and to see when and how he engages
I would love to be involved with something like this! It wouldn't work for me though, 'cause I recognized most of the actors immediately! They definitely picked THE perfect guy for this! Such a big heart and just amazing dude overall! ❤
the rub one out guy is a stuntman / actor Brandon Loeser… friend of our family,
hes been running a stuntman performer Christmas comedy play for over a decade…
he’s got a bunch of funny comedy out there 😂
you think there's no way this guy could be that gullible but i actually had one friend in highschool who was literally this gullible. like, we could get him to fall for the same prank multiple times. we would play Uno at lunch and every time he went to the bathroom we would rig the game so we could stack all the plus 2's on him. it took at least a couple weeks before he caught on.
I recognized too many of the jurors, Kirk Fox from lots of projects, Pramode Kumar from "my name is earl"
I loved the Joe Schmoe Show, so maybe I should watch this. I highly recommend Joe Schmoe, btw. It's like 20 years old now. It's a "competition" reality TV show where only one of the contestants is real, and everyone else is an actor messing with him. The main guy in that show is super likeable and nice to everyone, and so the actors feel bad after a while for messing with him so much, so they actually tone it down a bit in the later episodes.
That show is kind of hard to watch though, since originally, the premise was, as you say, to "mess with" the guy. This one feel's like his has a better premise.
“A vacation isn’t a reason to be excused” when I was on jury selection, the judge dismissed like 5 people because of vacations and camping trips. Luckily I didn’t get picked bc it was a m*rder trial and I wouldn’t have been able to handle it
James. The star of the hit movie Hop
istg, im not even exaggerating, i have never laughed so many times in a series that i've watched more than this show, like seriously, holy shit...i mainly wanted to watch this show because of Ronald because i saw some snippets of him from tiktok and that he is such a nice guy and such a cutie too, i also saw some funny clips there but i didnt know almost everything in the show is that hilarious, i was scolded by my housemates so many times for laughing so hard in front of my screen. hahaha
The Joe Schmo Show... there has been enough time for people to forget the ruse.
“Works for me just lmk if you need anything” 😂😂😂
The scuffed animation was hilarious 😂
This existed already in 2003! Via the “Joe Schmoe Show” where everyone is a paid actor/actress except for one person. The entire series is on CZcams and it ran for two seasons. (It wasn’t about jury but the same concept)
Thank you bringing this show to my attention
there’s another thing similar to the truman show in real life-it was a social experiment about crowd mentality and anonymity.
The audience got to vote on whether something good or bad happened to the guy on the show.
This is god damn hilarious, please put more on this Chanel .
this is genuinely hilarious
Its one of the most fun shows I've ever watched
0:46 you open prime and that smile in the logo doesn’t mean that they’re going to find you and your family. I mean they can afford to take the hint
This video made me watch the show and it's one of the best shows I've seen in a while
So it’s basically a crazy tv show, where a background character has no idea he’s in a show? Sounds amazing
14:52 I'm from Oregon and the whole time I was watching the show I kept thinking he acts a lot like everyone I know, so tbh I wouldn't be surprised if he had lived here and gone to school here. As a side note...I could see myself as well as some friends falling for this if its done right. Its not that they or I are dumb (well to be fair I may be a little behind on street smarts, I focused on academics a lot and was sheltered x.x), but because I'd be so nervous to have a camera in my face and be in a courtroom that I might not pick up on some of the things that would normally seem too out there.
Watching this video while sitting in my dorm at OSU was quite surreal haha
