Candy

Candy Montgomery seems to have it all: loving husband, adorable kids…and friends from church like Betty Gore. But to fight the mundanity of suburban life, Candy initiates an affair with Betty’s husband, Allen. After the affair runs its course Betty and Allen are closer than ever. But while away on a business trip, Allen becomes concerned when his wife won’t answer the home telephone.

The five-night Hulu event “Candy” stars Jessica Biel, Melanie Lynskey, Pablo Schreiber, and Raúl Esparza. Based on the 1980 crime, the series asks why would Candy kill Betty with 41 blows from a three-foot ax? Was it the affair…or did she just snap?

OUR SPOILER-FREE REVIEWS OF "CANDY" BEGIN AROUND THE 39th MINUTE.
