Reservation Dogs

FX's hit comedy Reservation Dogs, which continues to gain critical acclaim and fans in its first season, has been renewed for a second season. The second season of Reservation Dogs is expected to premiere in 2022, exclusively on FX on Hulu. The first season of Reservation Dogs currently enjoys a 100% Certified Fresh ratings on Rotten Tomatoes and has earned Universal Acclaim on Metacritic. Season one continues on FX on Hulu with the latest episode premiering yesterday on Monday, September 6 with episode six, "Hunting": Willie Jack and Leon go hunting. Written and Directed by Sterlin Harjo. The season one finale is slated for September 20. The series is a half-hour comedy that follows 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.

Starring D'Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai, Devery Jacobs, Paulina Alexis and Lane Factor, Reservation Dogs is filmed on location in Okmulgee, Oklahoma. A breakthrough in Indigenous representation on television both in front of and behind the camera, every writer, director and series regular on the show is Indigenous. 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.
