Jury Duty: A Real Life Truman Show

Hey heyyy Nikki Carreon people.. I accidentally uploaded this like 30 minutes ago with no audio sooo ignore that if you saw lol. Today we're talking about Jury Duty, one of the weirdest and funniest shows I've seen in a while. It's also slightly morally grey.. they literally Truman Show'd a guy.

[@nikkicarreon]

The thing that solidified him being a sweetheart in my ideas was that he doesn’t agree with the title of “hero” because he feels like kindness should just be the default for everyone. He seems really genuine. I literally would die if I was on this show tho 😭

Idk how the process was for this show but normally u get evaluated before being a juror so if they followed the same process to make it believable someone with delusions would probably not get chosen but idk like u said they could accidentally choose the wrong person 😬

There’s no way they didn’t have people pass some type of psych exam before this and frame it as “oh yeah it’s just part of the process for selected jurors” before throwing some poor person on this show. I’d honestly freak if sum shi like this happened to me

[@maddyisfudgeingbeast]

Right? I keep seeing comments about how they got lucky basically that he wasn’t severely mentally ill. There’s NO way that man wasn’t given a psych evaluation. That’s a civil suit waiting to happen. Which would be wayyyyyy to ironic.

[@loverrlee]

Yeah I bet there was some rubric of how likely the person is to “go along with the crowd” and not make waves (i.e. defend himself when his rights were being violated, like his right to privacy, because there were hidden cameras *in his room*)! They probably knew if they picked the right guy he’d be less likely to sue them for such a deranged human experiment. As you can probably tell by the way I’m wording this, I’d be the exact opposite of the kind of person “suited” for this social experiment because I would sue them so fast. (Even though I try to be kind to everyone I meet, and am more likely to be agreeable to avoid conflict, I also have a strong sense of a moral compass and this whole show does not pass the morality test, in my personal opinion).

​@@FiregloKinda complicated and not positive about where this was set but obviously they don't check beforehand so if you get called into duty service you MIGHT be able to get out of it but you'd have to get a doctors certificate proving the mental illness is severe enough you aren't fit. There's plenty of people who would (eg. me) consider themselves fit enough for jury duty but not for being like gaslit and manipulated and isolated for a week straight on national television... like that dude seemed fairly confident and extraverted (I know that doesn't necessarily mean he has no anxiety etc. but it's def more likely) and said he spiralled pretty heavily afterwards. There's going to be plenty of people who don't count as mentally unfit for jury duty but would break under that situation

Growing up as a child I always thought my life was being filmed and at the end of my time in high school everyone would show me a film of every single thing I did and laugh at me. So I believed people put cameras in my bathroom, in my mirrors, and any time I was alone I believed I was being filmed. I kind of just grew out of it once I hit like 16 I stopped having those thoughts as much. But I always remember it and think it’s weird, so idk seeing the start of this video was odd to me because it kind of described this weird feeling my entire childhood held, which was my belief that everyone was lying to me and I was filmed at all times for a show or for the amusement of others. So idk how to feel but I just wanted to say I’m glad I found this video…guess I’ll look into that

[@AJ-kq8mm]

You need to watch the Push. It’s a social experiment that a psychologist put together over the course of a night to see how much “hypothetically” it would take to get a random person to commit murder via pushing them off a building and what the actors and psychologists did to attempt to get the one person out of the loop to do it. It’s a very similar to this and very fascinating to watch how easily human beings can be manipulated.

[@Shyknit]

It's a Derren brown experiment which is kind of his thing he's done multiple where he tries to see what people can be subconsciously pushed to do, they are somewhat creepy but interesting

[@tb4546]

I can personally say as a schizophrenic man who had his emergent symptoms at quite a young age- I had the “Truman delusion” before I ever knew what the internet was or had access to it- or TV! When I was young I wasn’t allowed to watch anything but animated media, and wasn’t allowed photos except specific ones from obvious, large cameras. And yet I had a delusion about being followed and documented, even broadcast. It varied from newspapers to magazines, as those were the media I most commonly interacted with. As long as media exists, the delusion of being centered in it exists.

[@dtampien]

Huuuuuuge thumbs up for that hotdog joke. It didn't make me laugh a lot but its good enough to be worthy of praise.

[@nikkicarreon]

[@PaulyShore898]

I think the normalization of reality tv does a disservice to a lot of people who value privacy and control over their own life. When anybody can find your social media no matter how many steps you take to stay private and gossip about you that ends up hurting you. These shows encourage us to be trashy and chaotic and downright cruel to each other. Prank shows and reality tv are a depressing side effect of corporate greed and a disregard for artistic merit and good writers. Soon we'll just have ai reality tv.

[@EclipticalSun]

I feel like this concept just so so greatly depends on the person you happen to choose, considering there is no way for them to actively consent to it or reject it. I think they got very lucky with Ronald, a kind-hearted and mentally well person who seems to be okay with this entire thing. It's a risk for sure, and this time it happened to end well, but by god I hope this NEVER happens again.

[@pamelalansbury94]

They somehow found the perfect person to run this thing on, and it absolutely was HILARIOUS. Todd's chair pants made me laugh harder than I have in so long. Then the girl who kept trying to seduce the mormon kid....JAMES MARSDEN aka Caleb....it was all so funny.

[@frankinator3911]

FINALLY SOMEONE IS TALKING ABT THIS SHOW ITS SO GOOD

[@bad_bau]

Idk if you've heard about The Joe Schmo Show, but it's exactly what you thought this show would be: a massive prank at the "Joe Schmo's" expense. Matt (the Joe Schmo) thought he was on a typical reality show called the "Lap of Luxury" and that he was genuinely competing with the other "contestants," but they were all actors. And unlike Jury Duty, their goal WAS to make fun of Matt and put him in embarrassing situations. They literally made him have a breakdown mid-season, which led to them finally realizing that he was a real person with feelings, and it was shitty to mess with him like that. Did they end the show, admit everything, and call it off? Of course not! They just switched to treating him like the protagonist instead of making a joke out of him. AND THEN THEY MADE TWO MORE SEASONS. They just changed the fake show every season, so no one could tie it back to any previous ones. Season 2 was a dating show that had TWO fake contestants (a man and a woman). Season 3 was a phony bounty hunter show. I've seen some people talking about the first season, but I didn't learn they made two more seasons until I looked up the show. It's wild. I mean, for Pete's sake, it was Kristin Wiig's screen debut. What more can you want from an ethically dubious fake reality show prank?

[@laurenbrawner1814]

As a person with Schizoaffective Disorder I don't think I'd be able to actually watch this show without having a psychotic episode. If this happened to me I'd have consequences from it for years, if not the rest of my life.

[@ghoulsilver6352]

saw this post about a nurse that put the Truman show on during a psych hospital's movie night as you can imagine that caused a lot of schizophrenic people to get extremely paranoid and have episodes...... her response was ''how was I supposed to know everyone's triggers''

[@LeifLovebug]

This is such a great video!! Big agree with @herodoesstuff about the editing and Truman Show references, it's so well executed and the ending shot with multiple cameras felt connected to that blueprint/topdown map of the courthouse the video keeps cutting back to. At first I thought that was a schematic of a set the character Truman would walk around in in the in-universe Truman Show, but later in the video I realised it was from this actually-produced-irl court show and that sent a chill down my spine.

[@nikkicarreon]

Thank you!! You saw the vision, I appreciate that sm :) glad you liked it

[@sleepingcattv]

Bruh being on that show would literally break me… like how is that legal? As someone who does struggle with paranoia even just the sheer existence of that show makes me scared

[@slimkt]

I’m so happy to see this. I thought the show was so funny until I started to put myself in Ronald’s shoes. Like not just the paranoia of being constantly followed by cameras, but also, imagining building these bonds/relationships with the other ‘jurors’ only to find out they were completely fake. You invested your time and emotions into these people who weren’t even real; their names (sans James Marsden) aren’t even what you thought they were -the character they stepped into does not exist. That could really feel like a betrayal and change how you approach people in the future.

[@heyilikeair8521]

OMG this is exactly what I thought. I hoped they would never let him find out because these were relationships for life, or at least nostalgic if it was real. I would have cried, even after the $100,000.

I liked how Marsden said that it was important that Gladden was never going to be allowed to be the joke in the show, and if you watch, it holds up it’s always laughing with him, not at him, which I think is important and makes the show much more acceptable. Unfortunately, I wouldn’t be surprised if others tried a similar show type, missing the point and used it to make fun of an unsuspecting person, which could be detrimental.

[@uosdwiSrdewoH]

There were a couple of series created by Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick (writers of both Zombieland movies and all 3 Deadpool movies) that were on about 20 years ago. Now I feel old. 'The Joe Schmo Show' is closest to 'Jury Duty'. It's kind of like 'The Real World'. A bunch of people live in a house and each week someone gets voted out. Originally the show was supposed to make fun of the one real guy but he got close to one of the actors and when they were "voted out" he came close to leaving the show because he was so upset so they had to change things up when they realised, far later than they should have, that the audience would side with the guy being manipulated for entertainment. He won himself $100,000 and some other prizes. They did two other seasons. One based on The Bachelor and one based on Dog The Bounty Hunter but living in Australia those were never shown here. The second series is called 'Invasion Iowa'. William Shatner and a few actors/comedians descend on the town of Riverside, Iowa (in Star Trek this is the town where James T Kirk is born and that's what the place is known for) to film a movie that isn't real. One of the comedians is an early role for Desi Lydic now on The Daily Show. This should have poked fun at Hollywood yet despite being filmed 2 years after the first season of The Joe Schmo Show they went in wanting to make fun of the townsfolk and once again they had to pivot because they realised way too late that doing so may upset their audience. The people in town all get gifts and the town gets some more clout from William Shatner. Both series would have worked better had they started out not making fun of their unwitting participants but I did enjoy them when they were on. Though I was in my teens and far less discerning. If they'd hold up today I have no idea.

There’s a movie called Windy City Heat, I think what happened to Ronald was slightly more similar to that than the Truman Show, except instead of ruining someone’s life with a prank that would never end, Jury Duty tests peoples morality which is cool.

A another show that gives me turman vibes is the rehearsal by Nathan fielder. He’s also done Nathan for you which is a similar thing and actually ends in a way that would be foreshadowing for the rehearsal. The point of the rehearsal is the idea of trying to stage out events with actors and full on sets and locations opened to be convincing. It starts with a guy practicing how to tell his friend he’s lied about a job he had for years and, he had the bar remade to every detail and hired an actress to play his friend he would tell this secret to. She’s told to talk to her on a set up he did to play her better, the main thing being this guy loves trivia games so they put one in at this real bar and have him purposefully ruining into what would end up being the answers and he’s upset because he was never told that would be apart of it and he didn’t want others to see him as a cheater, this leads into the main part a women who wants kids, so they play this out same type of deal but it actually gets serious very quickly not only does she come at Nathan for religious beliefs he’s teaching “their kid” to a whole fake OD and d3ath of this fake kid character after she talks about her struggles with addiction in relation with her relationship with her father. He ends up hiring a new kid so they basically start over throughout all of this they are pretending to plant food and such, mirrors that only show them aged to the appropriate time passed in this act. We end up learning this kid gets attached to Nathan and calls him dad after the fact. I’m not even explaining it in a way that does it justice it’s the most wild ride you will ever take.

I love this video, got to it a little late but it’s great. I love the Truman show, so glad you put scenes from it in. The editing is great
