The groundbreaking comedy-drama about four Native American teens is one of the greatest TV shows of recent times, yet has been mostly ignored by the big awards bodies.

I can’t think of a better TV show I’ve ever seen. So smart and funny and sad and awesome.

So ridiculous, it’s a wonderful new coming of age story. I’m very sad it’s over.

I was happily surprised there was a season 3 since they could have stopped at the end of season 2. I’m glad they didn’t. That said, the first two seasons had a more structured story line and I think it should have gotten awards then. Season 3 was good, but didn’t have the same cohesion. There were more stand-alone episodes. There’s nothing wrong with that, and I was happy to watch them all, but I can see where some people might feel it a weaker season because of that. Still, the show should have gotten more praise sooner.

I think they’d planned a fourth season but found out they were cancelled in the middle of production, so they had to shift a bit to cover the ground they wanted to. It maybe seemed a bit less focused but I still think it was really high quality. That residential school episode especially deserves award consideration!

Source for this planned 4th season? Everything I've heard/read indicates that Sterlin Harjo felt the end of season 3 was the natural place to end it and it was his decision to stop there.

Unfortunately not shocking. Just par for the course.

I liked Beef, but Rez Dogs was way better. Only Murders looks fucking stupid. I can’t judge it properly though because I can’t fucking stand Martin Short, and Steve Martin hasn’t been funny in years.
