The first four were released on Amazon Prime Video on April 7. Two episodes were then released on a weekly basis.Episodes 7 and 8 were released on April 27, bringing the first season to an end.On the topic of a possible second season, executive producer Nicholas Hatton recently told Deadline: “We could do more but it won’t be the exact same format.“Tweaks will need to happen because the process of finding these wonderful real people involves a little bit of subterfuge and hyping up tracks and sort of pretending you’re something that you’re not.

So you have to use a slightly different process every time and we have to keep that very, very secret.”He added: “There are many more worlds of jury duty and many more iterations of it and I think it can go in any number of incredible directions.

We have some things we’re picking up right now which is really exciting. It’s a wonderful proof of concept, I’ll say.”Hatton admitted that it would be difficult to find a new, unsuspecting star for a follow-up series, especially one who could live up to proven.
