Jury’s Greatest Hits is acomedic dramaabout three English brothers—Scott, Trace, and Ethan Jury—who form a rock band in the late 1970s. They’re very successful… for all of one album, at which point they try to halt their decline by hiring openly gay club singer Jodie Trinket as their new frontman—much to the consternation ofcloseted former frontman Trace, who jealously resents how comfortable Jodie is in his own skin.

First off the wood thing needs some explaining, though I commend Wondy’s can-do spirit. Secondly, I’m pretty sure Superman knows by now that his hair is superstrong and is therefore just fucking with this guy to make him break all his scissors.

Jury's Greatest Hits is now available on Amazon!
