FX’s “Reservation Dogs” has been renewed for a third season, Nick Grad, president of original programming at the network, announced Thursday. The drama, centered on a ragtag group of teens on an Oklahoma reservation, will return to Hulu in 2023.
The second season of the AFI Awards and Peabody Award winning show will conclude on September 28.
From co-creators and executive producers Sterlin Harjo and Taika Waititi, the phenomenal series features an all-indigenous creative team of series regulars, writers and directors—the first of its kind in the industry. Filmed on location in Ocmulgee, Okla., the show follows the adventures of Elora Danan (Davry Jacobs), Bear Smallhill (D’Pharaoh Woon-a-Tai), Willie Jack (Paulina Alexis) and Cheese (Lane Factor) as They make deals. With Grief, navigate their location in their hometown and find out who they want to be.
“Reservation Dogs continues its remarkable run with critics, fans, and awards all recognizing the prodigious talent of the series created by Sterlin Harjo and Taika Waititi,” Grad said in a statement. “FX is proud to join hands with our partners at Hulu, featuring an amazing cast and crew of all, to deliver one of the most original, engaging and fun shows on television.”
Harjo said, “I couldn’t be more proud of the show I created with my friend Taika Waititi. It was born out of conversations in Taika’s kitchen and has now found a place in the lives of people around the world. Lee is there. The love for Season 2 has been outstanding. Thanks to FX for ordering Season 3, excited to bring you more laughs and love from Rez. Aahu!”
