You The Jury was a legal drama show created by FOX and premiered on April 7, 2017. The series, as the title suggests, gave the power to the viewers to be the jury and decide the verdict of each case presented in every episode. The show was hosted by Jeanine Pirro, who is a former judge and prosecutor, and a current legal analyst for FOX News. Pirro was joined by Benjamin Crump, an acclaimed civil rights attorney, and Skylar Felton, a trial attorney.
The premise of the show was simple, as each episode presented a real case which had already gone to trial, but the outcome was either controversial or heavily debated by the public. The presented cases ranged from a celebrity lawsuit to a criminal case, but all of them had significant social implications that provoked intriguing discussions among the viewers and the jurors. The viewers had the chance to vote by phone, text or social media in order to decide the outcome of the case presented at the end of each episode, based on the evidence presented and the arguments made.
The cases were presented in a documentary-style format, featuring interviews with the defendants, lawyers, witnesses, and other relevant people involved. Some cases were also accompanied by reenacted footage of the events and crime scenes, which brought a visual experience to the viewers. The cases presented on the show covered various topics such as police brutality, rape accusation, murder, and more. Every episode gave insight into the legal process and the importance of the judicial system in our society.
