James Marsden Receives First Emmy Nomination For Unconventional Comedy Series 'Jury Duty'

Marsden plays a fictionalized version of himself in the mockumentary-style show about the American court system.
Jury Duty has an unusual format blending scripted comedy and reality TV elements.
The show earned nominations for comedy series, writing, casting, and Marsden's supporting actor performance.
Marsden called his excited co-star Ronald Gladden to share news of the nominations.
Marsden did not expect the critical praise and awards recognition Jury Duty received.
