Reservation Dogs renewed for second season

Reservation Dogs is currently halfway through its first season, centered on a crew of teenage semi-gangsters who pull petty crimes and other schemes in order to fund a potential escape from their homes in rural Oklahoma. The series is notable for featuring for a largely Indigenous cast and crew; it’s also notable for being extremely funny and smart in its depiction of small-town life. Here’s The A.V. Club’s Danette Chavez, reviewing its first two episodes: “With its playful and stylish two-part debut, Reservation Dogs is already on track to be one of the best comedies (and shows) of the year.” (She also praised its young leads, writing that their characters are “sweet and formidable, naïve yet all too aware of how the world works.”) The series has enjoyed similarly glowing reviews from a majority of outlets, pulling down a 100 percent Certified Fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

Reservation Dogs stars Devery Jacobs, D’Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai, Lane Factor, and Paulina Alexis. The series airs on FX On Hulu on Monday nights. The second season is currently slated to arrive in 2022.
