"Indigenous"

2021 · 3 Seasons · FX on Hulu · Comedy-Drama

Reservation Dogs is one of the most original shows to come out of the 2020s, a coming-of-age comedy-drama that tells Indigenous stories with a voice entirely its own. Sterlin Harjo and Taika Waititi created something that feels both culturally specific and universally resonant, following four Oklahoma teenagers through grief, friendship, and the messy process of figuring out who you are. The show's gentle pacing won't work for everyone, and its third season occasionally stretches the episodic format thin. But the writing is warm without being sentimental, the humor is bone-dry and perfectly timed, and the final season delivers an emotional landing that most shows can only dream of.
