Emmy-winner Margo Martindale played the lead role — Ruth Landry, a Canadian maple syrup farmer.

With her land under threat, Ruth schemes to steal millions of dollars of maple syrup as revenge.

She teams up with a Boston mobster (Chris Diamantopoulos), as well as a mild-mannered security guard (Guillaume Cyr).

The show aired six episodes on the streamer – all of which dropped on December 6.

Margo, 73, is known for her acclaimed television roles on Justified and The Americans.

Meanwhile, Oscar-winner Jamie Lee Curtis executive produced and appeared as a guest star.
