‘Jury Duty Presents: Company Retreat’
Watch On
The jokesters behind Amazon’s hilarious reality hoax sitcom “Jury Duty” are back at it again, beginning March 20, with the first three episodes dropping on premiere day.
While last season, they struck comedy gold with a staged trial, this season, they’re setting the ruse amid a fake company retreat. The unsuspecting target? Anthony, a real temp at a not-so-real brand (Rockin’ Grandma’s Hot Sauce), who attends the annual corporate offsite only to find out that things are getting messy up in that C-suite — it’s CEO Doug’s final retreat and his son Dougie Jr. is struggling to prove his leadership abilities while a private-equity team sniffs around for company acquisition. Hijinks will very much ensue.

‘Deadloch’
Watch On
Premiering on Friday, March 20, Australian crime-comedy “Deadloch” returns to Prime Video for its second installment, this time finding Detectives Dulcie Collins (Kate Box) and Eddie Redcliffe (Madeleine Sami) in Darwin to investigate the death of Eddie’s former policing partner, Bushy.
However, when a body part is discovered in the remote town of Barra Creek, their plans are soon diverted as they’re tasked with identifying the John Doe. “Sticky, sweaty and juggling comprehensive thrush infections, the detectives find themselves embroiled in a world of crocodile-fuelled tourism, overstretched Indigenous rangers, cagey locals, and seven-metre prehistoric predators” as they dig into the dark secrets that lie beneath that small-town surface, per the season synopsis.

‘The Forsytes’
Watch On
Hitting Prime Video via PBS Masterpiece on Sunday, March 22, this six-part period drama is adapted from John Galsworthy’s Nobel Prize-winning “The Forsytes” novels, chronicling a wealthy stockbroking family in 1880s London across four separate generations that “find themselves torn between tradition and the personal pursuit of happiness,” per PBS.
Led by “Flesh and Blood” star Francesca Anna as formidable matriarch Ann Forsyte and featuring Stephen Moyer, Eleanor Tomlinson, Fiona Button and Jack Davenport in its ensemble cast, the lavish British series will find the titular fam struggling to maintain their supremacy as desire, ambition and betrayal threaten to crumble their powerful empire.
