Bonus Episodes of Jury Duty Presents: Company Retreat Coming to Prime Video; Ramy Youssef's Third HBO Special
Prime Video announced two bonus episodes of the critically acclaimed hit comedy series Jury Duty Presents: Company Retreat: a Season Two cast reunion special moderated by James Marsden, who returns after his Emmy Award nominated turn in Season One, and a meetup between Season Two non-actor/hero Anthony Norman and Season One non-actor/hero Ronald Gladden. The bonus episodes will debut on April 10, 2026, and will be available in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide.
In "The Reunion," Anthony and the entire cast come together for a special celebration. Hosted by the inimitable James Marsden, this gathering offers viewers an intimate look at the cast's reflections on their production experience while also treating audiences to never-before-seen footage from the show.
In "The Meeting," Anthony Norman and Ronald Gladden, the heroes of Jury Duty and Jury Duty Presents: Company Retreat, meet at a Los Angeles coffee shop for a candid conversation about their unique shared experience. As the only two people to have lived through this social experiment, they exchange personal stories and perspectives on how the experience has impacted their lives.
In addition to the two bonus episodes, Prime Video subscribers will be able to access newly recorded audio commentary across all eight episodes of Jury Duty Presents: Company Retreat, featuring running commentary from Anthony Norman, Alex Bonifer, Stephanie Hodge, Rachel Kaly, Emily Pendergast, and Marc-Sully Saint-Fleur reflecting on the making of the series.
Jury Duty Presents: Company Retreat is a comedy series that captures a corporate offsite event at a family-owned hot sauce company from the perspective of Anthony, a recently hired temporary worker. Unbeknownst to Anthony, the entire experience is staged, every colleague around him is performing a role, and each moment - whether in conference rooms or during downtime - has been meticulously orchestrated. As the founder prepares to step down, the getaway transforms into a clash between big corporate ambitions and small business values, with control of the company hanging in the balance.
The ensemble cast of Jury Duty Presents: Company Retreat features Alex Bonifer, Blair Beeken, Emily Pendergast, Erica Hernandez, Jerry Hauck, Jim A. Woods, LaNisa Renee Frederick, Marc-Sully Saint-Fleur, Rachel Kaly, Rob Lathan, Ryan Perez, Stephanie Hodge, Warren Burke, and Wendy Braun.

Filmed in front of an intimate crowd at historic venue The Hideout in Chicago, in his third HBO standup special, Ramy Youssef playfully engages with the audience as he approaches a vast spectrum of personal topics, both hilariously relatable and genuinely serious, all while doing so with the belief that you can find light and hope in all things if you just try to see them through a lens of love. Whether it’s his marriage, being a dog parent, AI, or religion, Ramy comes at everything with his own brand of heart and humor.

SitcomsOnline Digest: Colin Jost Lands Role in New Peacock Series; Cincinnati Radio Station Gets WKRP Letters
Welcome to SitcomsOnline Digest! This week, we have news about a Saturday Night Live cast member getting a series on the side, a new radio station in Cincinnati that is getting the call letters that never existed on a real radio station in that city, and more. Let's get going!
HIGHLIGHTS FROM SITCOMSONLINE.COM AND AROUND THE WEB
- Colin Jost has mostly been known as the Weekend Update anchor on Saturday Night Live (though he has recently been making appearances at Pete Hegseth), but now he wants to go all-in on acting with a new Peacock drama series that is based upon a true story where he portrays a dentist who is a drug kingpin on the side. (Deadline)
- Details are light, but a radio station in Cincinnati has acquired the letters WKRP, marking the first time a radio station in that city has legally had those letters (though there was a TV station that used the letters as a nickname that we covered almost two decades ago). (Ultimate Classic Rock)
- Ashlee Simpsons says she would "definitely return" to Saturday Night Live despite it being where her career-ending lip-syncing scandal occurred in 2004. (Deadline)
- MeTV Toons acquired and starting airing The Super Mario Bros. Super Show last week, but fans are noticing that something is way off, as they've used some very sloppy AI tools to remaster the episodes. (Engadget)
- Tubi now has 250 classic episodes of Sesame Street. (SitcomsOnline)
- This is the big one many have been waiting for, Malcolm in the Middle: Life's Still Unfair arrives on Hulu on Friday.
- The final season of Hacks arrives Thursday on HBO Max.
- Saturday Night Live returns on NBC tonight, with host Jack Black and musical guest Jack White.
- The Office is returning to TBS after a seven year hiatus starting Monday night at midnight.
- We forgot to mention this last week, but if you're interested in other sitcoms from the same era as The Office, E! Entertainment (which has reportedly lost the rights to The Office as it moves to TBS) is now airing Two and a Half Men and How I Met Your Mother (which has been absent on cable for a little while).
- Antenna TV has a Hazel marathon tomorrow

Hulu Releases First Look at Alice and Steve; Tubi to Stream 250 Sesame Street Episodes
Friends become foes in the ultimate wrong-com. Hulu has released the official first look at Alice and Steve, the upcoming outrageously witty comedy from Clerkenwell Films (Baby Reindeer). Starring Jemaine Clement and Nicola Walker, the series will have its world premiere in competition at CANNESERIES 2026 ahead of a summer debut on Hulu, and Hulu on Disney+ for bundle subscribers, in the U.S. and Disney+ internationally.
Alice is devastated when her best friend Steve starts dating her 26-year-old daughter Izzy. She's going to lose her best friend and her daughter in one fell swoop. Alice tries everything she can to end the relationship. Unfortunately for her, Steve's more than ready for the attack, and what begins as a perfect friendship, devolves into an all-out feud. A hilarious, messy, and complicated exploration of friendship, love, and revenge, "Alice and Steve" is an anti-romantic comedy that asks the question, how far would you go for love - or revenge? Will Alice forgive Steve? Will Steve and Izzy make a relationship work? Amongst all the questions hanging in the balance, one thing is certain; their lives will never be the same again.
The six-part Hulu Original series stars Nicola Walker (The Split, Unforgotten), Jemaine Clement (What We Do in the Shadows, Flight of The Conchords), Joel Fry (Cruella), and Yali Topol Margalith (The Tattooist of Auschwitz, A Good Girl's Guide to Murder).
