Following the exploits of four Indigenous teenagers in rural Oklahoma who steal, rob and save in order to get to the exotic, mysterious and faraway land of California. To succeed, they will have to save enough money, outmaneuver the methheads at the junkyard on the edge of town and survive a turf war against a much tougher rival gang. This first-of-its-kind creative team tells a story that resonates with them and their lived experiences -- and invites audiences into a surprisingly familiar and funny world.

5/5

For all the deprivation it captures, the series never fails also to emphasise the richness of this tight-knit community.

9/10

In season 2, we get to know The Rez Dogs not only as a group, but as individuals, with rich episodes that dive into compelling themes surrounding each teenager’s identity.

Reservation Dogs was an act of cultural reclamation.

While the show is expanding its focus beyond its core four teenagers, S02 of Sterlin Harjo still has plenty of wit, bite and pathos. Episode 9 is easily one of the best episodes of television of the year.

I binged S2 together and I was blown away. I really thought they found their voice with S2, and all the character centered episodes really impacted me (Richie's especially). S2 is also one of the only times I've cried watching a television show.

Fantastic series. I stumbled across it completely by accident and binged all 3 seasons. The unique mix of indigenous culture, teenage coming-of age stories, and surrealism completely hooked me. The second season is even better than the first.

Loved the first season of this original series. Season 2 is even better as the characters get deeper. Hilarious, too

While the issues facing the Reservation Dogs become more complex in it's 2nd season it's always told with heart and healthy dose of humour. Must see TV and one of 2022's best shows.

Totally worth getting through season 1 to get to this season. One of the best tv series experiences. Great character development-- interesting storylines-- really told a compelling and complete story.
