"There are three shows that prepare you for jury duty: Columbo, The Verdict with Paul Newman and My Cousin Vinny (jury laughter). I'm serious! There are a lot of good things that happen in that movie! If you've seen those three, then you've seen everything you need to be a good juror . . . Keep an open mind." - Orange County Superior Court Judge James P. Marion addressing potential jurors (Source Navel Gazing blog at the OC Weekly)
I've seen a lot of Columbo, watched The Verdict and My Cousin Vinny which may explain why I like jury duty. I'm glad Judge Marion left out the Pauly Shore "classic" Jury Duty. (The title of this post is the tag line from the movie)
