The Sticky Debuts on Prime Video December 6

Margo Martindale stars as Ruth Landry in the new Prime Video series "The Sticky," a comedic thriller inspired by the real-life 2012 Great Canadian Maple Syrup Heist. Martindale's character, a tough maple syrup farmer, teams up with a wannabe gangster and a disgruntled security guard to navigate a chaotic crime caper against the corrupt Quebec Maple Association. The series, which features Jamie Lee Curtis in a cameo, offers a playful yet gritty narrative reminiscent of "Fargo," with Martindale's performance being a standout. While the show takes liberties with the true story, it captures the essence of the actual heist, where over $18 million worth of syrup was stolen from Quebec's reserves. The six episodes will be available for streaming starting December 6, promising a mix of humor and drama as the characters' plans unravel. Critics note that despite stiff competition in the year-end programming slate, "The Sticky" is a unique and enjoyable watch that should not be overlooked.
