Reservation Dogs

I've never quite seen a show like this before. It makes me laugh so much, is so down to earth, relatable, and heartfelt, while also being beautifully filmed and crafted.

It's wonderful and refreshing to see a tv show made by Native & Indigenous creators from top to bottom and it shows in how lovingly crafted Reservation Dogs is. The writing and acting is spectacular and makes the characters feel so real. They are all so lovable, interesting, and complex as people.

There's something about this show that feels like home and it's hard to let go of. It deals with real problems, but in such a caring and thoughtful way that it's somehow comforting to watch it all unfold.

First off - I am an old white lady who bypassed this for a while until I saw a trailer and was intrigued. I cannot believe this isn't sitting along "Resident Alien" and "Better Call Saul" it is so well done and so beautifully off center. It also has several of my favorite native actors in it - both young and old(er).

The humor, at times, is so subtle, that you have to really watch what's happening. Also you have to see the quiet things in the background too. After a while, you will want to sit and just watch it - and see what this group is up to next.

It is not always funny. It's like everyone's day - mixed with different happenings and different feelings and emotions. The more I got to know the kids and the families and the characters in the town, the more at home I felt.

Am anxious for the next season!! THANK YOU FX for this incredible series!!

PS -Zahn McClarnon (Big) is absolutely brilliant in his subtle comedic timing. It's worth watching just to see him. And then there is SO MUCH MORE!!

Instant classic, unique perspectives, expertly written cast directed and performed. A perfect blend of adventure, compassion, crime, and COMEDY!

The cherry on top, Captain Bobby Lee out of nowhere bringing the "A" game. FX found a diamond here, hope they take care of it.

I don't find it offensive like some people do and I'M NATIVE. This show is hilarious and I would highly recommend it to anyone. I get all the jokes and it has me rolling. I can't wait to watch another episode.

Native here, raised on the rez. I won't say this is 100% accurate because it's obviously a caricature in some ways, but they get so much right, especially the slang. I found it hilarious that the old warrior character truly represents Native humor in a way I've never really seen before in pop culture, just really fast, double barreled, and then suddenly drab. The sets are very close to real life. I watched these first two episodes thinking "I've been there," or "I've done that." Probably the best glimpse into rez life since Smoke Signals which is a huge tip of the cap.
