"Jury Duty" is the latest TV series to go viral on TikTok, and people are falling head over heels for the main star.

The eight-episode documentary-style comedy series premiered on April 7 and depicts the inner workings of an American jury trial. The story is told through the eyes of a juror. There is a twist to the show, however, the case is fake and all except for one juror are actors.

It's essentially a real-life "The Truman Show" with a comedic element reminiscent of the iconic mockumentary "The Office," of which the show's creators Lee Eisenberg and Gene Stupnitsky were both writer-producers.

And TikTok users are obsessed. A TikTok video of a scene in the show has racked up almost 20 million views and 3.2 million likes, as of April 28.

"This is not even an ad I'm just urging you to watch because it's a hilarious show," read the video's caption.

In the scene, juror Noah, played by Mekki Leeper from HBO Max's "The Sex Lives of College Girls," tries to get out of jury duty by claiming to be racist.

The show also stars actor James Marsden, who plays himself, but with a hyper-inflated ego and no social awareness.

As the show continues to grow its fanbase on TikTok, the main protagonist and only non-actor on the show, Ronald Gladden, is rapidly winning the hearts of fans.

Being the only one kept in the dark, Gladden's good nature shines through the endless curveballs that the production team and cast were throwing his way.

A TikTok depicting one of Gladden's many kind gestures has almost 2 million views, with in-video captions that read "the best part of 'Jury Duty' is that they picked the nicest guy ever."

The production team found Gladden by putting out a Craigslist ad for a documentary series, executive producer Todd Schulman told Vulture.

"When we saw Ronald's tape, we couldn't believe it. He's such a nice guy. He's funny, he's charming, he's witty. That's what we had hoped for," series co-creator Eisenberg told Vulture.

The team wanted to create a show that had the "tropes and the tone of something like 'The Office' but really had a warmth and an optimism to it as well," said Eisenberg, per Vulture.

And Gladden proved to be the perfect fit. Throughout the 17 days of filming, he surprised the crew time and time again with his good nature and dedication to the faux case, shared the production team in a behind-the-scenes segment of the final episode.

Dramatics and characters created to annoy him were instead embraced by him. Inevitably, the whole cast of actors formed a strong bond that lasted even after the show ended, where they would hang out now and then as seen on Gladden's Instagram.

There were multiple moments where Gladden — who had thought he signed up for "a very serious behind-the-scenes look at what happens during the judicial process" — had a feeling that they may actually be filming a reality-type TV show, he told ET.

But every time the production team or cast got wind of Gladden's suspicion, they would cut back on the theatrics and go through hours of monotonous trial-related processes, shared the team in the series' final episode.

After the grand reveal in the final episode, where Gladden learns that it was all a set-up, he struggled with moments of paranoia where he felt like he was still being filmed secretly, he told TV Guide.

"I started freaking out and I was like, 'I feel like I'm being followed,' so I was texting James [Marsden] and I was telling him this," he added, sharing that Marsden, "being the wonderful person he is," hopped on a 30 to 45-minute call to reassure him and helped him adjust to reality.
