October 3, 20223 yr Charlie Parr’s “Over The Red Cedar” opening episode 9 slayed me. It’s the only song that references where I’m from (my grandparents lived along that river in childhood) and it’s just a great song.Loved season 2. I always expected some kind of romantic involvement between Bear and Elora to develop and now we know why it didn’t

October 4, 20223 yr I thought they were cousins.I missed that. I thought Bear’s mom and Cookie were just childhood friends.

Definitely going to tune in for next season though. great ending.- but im hoping for a happier ending for the group tho thinking they all might end up working at an Indian casino in cali. and they all make the Hollywood dream come to life.

So I thought their goal was to move to Cali, but it sounds like it was just meant to be a spring break trip. Maybe I misremember. Either way, it would have been a perfect ending had it ended there, but it leaves room for another season. They'll spend some time in Cali, find their car (likely with help from White Jesus and the spirits), and find their way back. Where it goes from there can be anything. I think Harjo and Waititi will get it right.
October 4, 20223 yr And don't buy farmers market sage. It will give you bad luck. Stinky pits, and foot fungus.
October 4, 20223 yr One of the great series. I was wondering if they would touch on the emotional note of anger at Daniel. Yep, reliable Cheese delivers. I'm in awe of how these episodes are put together. I wouldn't have even known it existed if not for this board. Thanks!
October 5, 20223 yr I don't know where they can take season 3. There are so many possibilities. They could get jobs in Cali and realize that it isn't the dream place they all thought and maybe come to the conclusion that they are better off where life is more affordable to better themselves. Some stay and some go back.
October 5, 20223 yr I’m trying so hard to get my 13 yr old and his friends to pick up skoden and stoodis.

I think Harjo and Waititi will get it right. I think the original plan for the end of season 1 was to run away and live in Cali. I think in season 2, the plan after reading Daniel's letter at Willie Jack's was to just make a trip, fulfill Daniel's wish by taking his letter to the ocean. I am super curious where they'll take this. I'm actually curious to see what the storytellers tell us in where they take this as well. If this was a Dancer, Texas Pop 81 story (honestly can't remember what happens in that movie) I'd be saying that they've already won by getting away from the shitty little town, forget stardom if they can avoid the pitfalls of LA life and get their feet under them they are in a place with opportunity and blah blah blah. But that's my viewpoint about economically depressed small towns being death traps for young people who want to live life, and it lacks much of the complexity that comes with a story about leaving the reservation. And I don't know about that complexity and it's not my place to even speculate as to what it is, I just want to see what the storytellers tell us. My wife's grandpa was born on the reservation - Fort Peck in Montana. A japanese fella in an internment camp up there during the war knocked up a woman on the reservation, which makes my wife roughly 1/8th, although the whole blood quantum thing is fucked up anyways. She had always understood that they were Assiniboine, although her brother who went to Haskell said more recently that they don't actually know if they are Assiniboine or Sioux - both tribes are on that rez and it's not clear. I feel like I'm in danger of becoming the overly interested or overstepping white person but I want to try and get some better information about that at some point, if only for my daughter to know a bit more clearly that part of her history. Anyways, there's not a point that I'm driving towards other than I'm glad this show exists and these people are making it. There's not a ton of native cinema easily available past Smoke Signals, which is good even if the guy who wrote it is at least a bit of a creep (metoo stuff).
October 5, 20223 yr I think this is trending towards them staying in Oklahoma and trying to make things better. That feels like the message Harjo is building towards.

As my grandfather said, “Mexican, Texan, Mestizaje, Indian. I don’t know, I don’t care”
October 29, 20223 yr In a legit Navajo trading post and saw this...I know. I should've bought it. Shit ass.

October 30, 20223 yr Popular Post At work the other day in a meeting a woman I work with used the term shitass. I just said aho, young warrior. We nodded knowingly while the rest of the group looked around confused.
June 3, 20232 yr So they are shooting the new season of Reservation Dogs right now in and around Tulsa. I guess Ethan Hawke is going to be in the new season? This is him and Sterlin Harjo at Philbrook Museum the other day, which is less than a mile from my house. What I’m saying is that we’re all basically best friends now.

June 29, 20232 yr This season is the last one. https://www.instagram.com/p/CuFbhPaOp8M/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA%3D%3D Edited June 29, 20232 yr by mdmost
June 29, 20232 yr Well that sucks. Meanwhile every Bravo show gets a 10 year extension and three spin-offs.
July 6, 20232 yr Looks great. Gonna miss this. Also looks like my assumption that (at least some of them) they decide to stay and make their home better, vs leaving, is accurate.
August 4, 20232 yr I hate the show is ending for many reasons. Mostly though for the majority of this cast that will likely not find much in the way of roles going forward.
August 4, 20232 yr Just saw the first ep of the new season pop up on Hulu, can't wait to get started https://www.instagram.com/p/CvIH1VnLbNJ/?img_index=1 have to admit i lingered

August 9, 20232 yr Definitely ready to get back to the ensemble here. Episode 1 was as good as this show gets. I’m sure they’re going somewhere with 2&3, but things are better when all 4 of them are together
August 10, 20232 yr I’m sure this episode will be hated on, but I liked it a lot. But I also liked last episode a lot too. [emoji2371]
August 10, 20232 yr I’m sure this episode will be hated on, but I liked it a lot. But I also liked last episode a lot too. [emoji2371]So I have lived all 3 episodes so far. I have no issues with Harjo telling the stories he wants about this group.
August 12, 20232 yr God damnit, ep 3 is a roller coaster. I’ve learned about the boarding schools because of the work I do, to see it on screen that way is powerful. I hope people take a deep dive into the atrocities that were committed, it needs to be known. I have a ton more to say that is full cloak room so I’ll hold back for now. Just, damn.

August 15, 20232 yr Man, that was a powerful episode. (I want to have relations with Deer Lady -- does that make me weird?)Only if you're doing it because you want to touch her hooves.
