Nice and sweet television serie! The whole thing is good entertainment and nothing more. It is based on an actual fact but. Far from the real story that you can google. It is fast pace and short episodes wich makes it even more attractive.
And YES, as a local everybody hates the Maple cartel and does accentuate a real problem with free trade.
I have not more less to write but if I want this review to show , I need to write six hundred caracters minimum. So in my opinion this is a deterrant to many users that will simply NOT write anything substancial. So for my last 28 words, I do recommend you watch this show.

"The Sticky" was great fun! The entire cast was phenomenal, with Jamie Lee Curtis delivering a brilliant performance as always. But I was particularly impressed by Margo Martindale - she absolutely shines in her role. The sharp, witty dialogue kept me constantly entertained, and I'm really hoping for a second season. This show has a unique blend of humor and crime drama that I haven't seen in a while.
Here's hoping the creators decide to give us more! The unexpected twists and turns kept me guessing throughout, and the Canadian setting added a unique flavor to the story. It's absolutely worth checking out. You won't be disappointed.

This is a refreshing crime comedy series! Centering the plot around maple syrup is quite ingenious and the decision for 30 minutes per episode works quite well. The scripting holds up for most of the time, sometimes you can hear the keyboards of the authors clicking.
But what makes this series really worth watching is the casting: They are all doing an impressive job, highlights are the leading role Margo Martindale and, as always, the impeccable Jamie Lee Curtis. For those two alone, my recommendation holds up.
However, be prepared for a truly disappointing last episode of season one for the incomprehensible decision to cut the story line right in the middle of the climax.

As Episode 1 of "The Sticky" (2024 release from Canada; 6 episodes of about 30 min each) opens, we are reminded that "This is absolutely not the true story of the Great Maple Syrup Heist", which took place in 2011. In the opening scenes, the local Quebec police is called to quell a disturbance, only to find the body of a man in a maple barrel, murdered for reasons unknown. We then are introduced to Ruth, who tends to her maple tree farm but as it turns out she doesn't have the proper license for this, and she may lose the farm... At this point we are less than 10 minutes into Episode 1.
Couple of comments: This is a dark comedy series from Canada, more specifically from Quebec, where maple syrup is big business. I have no idea to what extent this mini-series accurately reflects what happened in the Great Canadian Maple Syrup Heist of 2011, but frankly it's not even relevant. The reason is that this mini-series is absolutely hilarious and fun from start to finish. I laughed out loud quite a few times throughout these 6 episodes as this mini-series is quirky, dry, and even absurd at times (in the best possible way). The no-star ensemble cast is stellar. Comedy, good comedy, is incredibly difficult to do, but this mini-series delivers.
"The Sticky" started streaming on Amazin Prime last month, and I just discovered it. I watched all 6 episodes in a single setting. THis mini-series is currently rated 82% Certified Fresh on Rotten Tomatoes. If you are in the mood for a quirky dark comedy starring our neighbors of the north, I'd readily suggest you check this out, and draw your own conclusion.

This series starts off so well and then sort of... tanks.
I didn't realise this was "season 1". I was lead to believe it was a full story told in 6 parts. Because of that, it's both not enough -leaves you hanging- and is stretched too thin.
The casting and production design are terrific, but it's like the original Twin Peaks: once the "big crime" is solved, the story's over. Trying to draw it out with extraneous subplots becomes painful no matter how much we enjoy spending time with these quirky characters.
I realise I should have soaked this review in syrupy jokes, but maple trees are always sad because they're so sappy...
