I'm going against the grain on this one. It feels like an intersection between Candid Camera and The Office. How is every single person on this show, save one, an actor and yet no one is funny or charismatic? This probably could have functioned as a sitcom if you had bigger name talents.

The chances of Ronald not being "in on it" are slim to none. As other people point out, sequestering someone under false pretenses is probably illegal. Based on the juror confessionals and preposterous slapstick situations, any reasonable human in Ronald's position should be able to tell it's a fake trial.

I stopped after 2 episodes. If you're into The Office (which I'm not), you might last longer.
