Via The Playlist:
"Reservation Dogs," an all-new comedy set to hit FX On Hulu this summer. Set in rural eastern Oklahoma, the show follows a foursome of Indigenous American teenagers who commit crimes (and occasionally stop them) in a bid to head to California.

Waititi created the show alongside Native American filmmaker Sterlin Harjo, who hails from Oklahoma. "Reservation Dogs" is a passion project for Harlan and acts as an extension of his four previous films' look at indigenous Native Americans as they navigate the trials and pitfalls of modern society. "Mekko," Harjo's latest film, hit the festival circuit back in 2015.

I haven't seen anything by Harjo, but it seems to carry over the sensibilities of Taika's NZ movies. Plus maybe a little light Harmony Korine with casting local weird characters (I assume those twins are pretty much playing themselves)

Loved the first two episodes and the slice of life take so far. Ahhh, these new fresh perspectives in TV and Film are so amazing. Glad we're finally getting shows like this. Definitely I'm sure there have been others to pave the way, but to find out the entire cast and crew (writers, producers, directors) are all POC's/Indigenous is so amazing to see.

Yo, like five minutes into the first episode and this is already perfect.

EDIT: They're smashing street lights to pull copper wire, I'm fucking dying!

Goddamn at this dialogue, and the rhythm all these performances and editing create.

There are just so many different voices with different cadences that are deftly intermingle in just this first episode

The title card not hitting until they acquired their name was real smooth. This show is fantastic. Feels like the Atlanta of the res, not so much in that it's derivative, more that the voice it has is novel and confident in itself.

I thought the 3rd episode was the funniest so far.

Everything with the Uncle character was great and the opening w/the couple in the car was well done.

Available in Australia on Binge (first two episodes anyway so far). Glad this thread caught my eye - might have missed it.
