“Jury Duty” successfully pulled off its Season 1 conceit, where all but one person are hired actors. (Who can forget Ron Gladden?) But Season 2 provided new challenges for the show’s producers.

This time around, the show moves away from the courtroom, trying its luck with a “Company Retreat.” The concept is the same: Everyone is a hired actor, except one civilian, Anthony Norman, who is led to believe he’s been hired as a temp at the family-owned hit sauce company known as “Rockin’ Grandmas.”
