Stars on Trial is a MuchMusic television special based on the MuchMusic television program Video on Trial. It premiered in late December 2005, as part of the network's annual "Holiday Wrap." Stars on Trial uses basically the same concept as Video on Trial. However, the special was a full hour long as opposed to being a half-hour long and took place in an actual courtroom set instead of a black background set. Also, the jury analyzed celebrities themselves instead of just music videos. The show was MuchMusic's highest rated special of the year other than the MuchMusic Video Awards and remains the highest rated comedy special in the network's history (not including VOT Holiday specials which are holiday-themed regular episodes). Cast Ron Sparks as The Judge Tim McAuliffe as Rusty Waters (The Bailiff) Jurors Trevor Boris Debra DiGiovanni Sabrina Jalees Jemeni David Kerr Fraser Young Verdicts As in Video on Trial, these verdicts are of a humorous nature.
