No, because it wouldn't sell. Live trials tend to be mundane and even the popular Judge Judy type shows are only entertaining because they are short and snarky. Even if it was edited so that it would be episodic, it still wouldn't be that great.
Yup. Trials are long and boring. The only reason we have an exciting picture of them are fictional television shows, movies, and video games. There's a reason people go "Oh, come on, jury duty." instead of "Fuck ya, jury duty."
That is exactly it. Nowadays I can hardly stand the portrayal of fictional trial proceedings, because a part of me always says "wait you can't do that!"
I have to admit, when you said episodic, the first thing that came to mind was that it would actually be better quality TV than the current reality tv crap that's showing now.
