Jessica Matten | Talking Tribal, APTN’s new Indigenous crime drama – The GATE

by ahnationtalk on February 26, 2020159 Views

Tribal is APTN’s fiery new crime drama, and it’s one of the most interesting shows on TV this season.

Created by Ron E. Scott (Blackstone), Tribal stars Jessica Matten as Interim Chief Sam Woodburn, and features an almost completely Indigenous cast.

Matten is fierce and completely down-to-Earth as Sam, a tribal police officer forced to take charge as her department is pushed into a partnership with the city police.

She’s teamed up with Chuck “Buke” Bukansky, played by Brian Markinson, a seasoned, but frankly sexist and racist officer with a lot of baggage. Somehow though, Sam puts up with him, and they work together because they both want to close cases.
