The characters in the TV series "Reservation Dogs" do not belong to a specific tribe, and the show never mentions which tribe they belong to. The show is set in rural Oklahoma, and it follows the lives of four Indigenous teenagers who commit petty crimes to escape their rural home for California. The show is created by Sterlin Harjo, an Indigenous filmmaker, and Taika Waititi for FX Productions. The show is praised for its authentic portrayal of Indigenous American life and its diverse cast and crew. The show is shot entirely in the Muscogee Nation, and a strong sense of regionality dictates every detail in its compositions. The show aims to illustrate real problems facing Native youth and not shy away from the difficulties and inequalities of Native American life. The show is the first and only TV series where every writer, director, and series regular is Indigenous.
