Reservation Dogs, a massive and heartwarming dramatic comedy about four Native American teens growing up in rural Oklahoma, has been picked up for a third season. Reservation Dogs was praised by critics during its first two seasons. The series shows how close-knit Native American communities work, with funny and touching scenes in the spirit world and stories of small thefts.
From spiritual jokes to recipes they won’t share, the show highlights parts of Indigenous culture that many non-Native people have never seen or may even be afraid to explore. The smart Indigenous people who made the show came up with a new way to tell a heavy story about loss. They did this by making situations that are both unique and very familiar, and by using slang and inside jokes from the community.
Reservation Dogs season 3 cast
Well, Reservation Dogs wouldn’t be the same without the main Res Dogs—Devery Jacobs, who plays Elora Danan, D’Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai, who plays Bear, Lane Factor, who plays Cheese, and Paulina Alexis, who plays Willie Jack—so it’s a safe bet that they’ll all be back for the round three.
If that’s the case, we can probably also anticipate the following cast members to make it back:
• Elva Guerra as Jackie
• Sarah Podemski as Rita
• Zahn McClarnon as Officer Big
• Dallas Goldtooth as Spirit
• Lil Mike as Mose
• Funny Bone as Mekko
Mabel, Elora’s grandmother (played by Geraldine Keams), died in the middle of season two, so she won’t be back for season three. If Mabel does show up, it will probably be in the form of flashbacks.
Reservation Dogs season 3 Plot
In Season 2, the Rez Dogs are still sad about the death of their friend, and their sadness is made worse by the fact that they are no longer together and miss each other. The “California dream” doesn’t turn out the way they thought it would, which makes them feel even more let down and alone. Even though they use humor to deal with things, they are also facing more and more adult problems. As they attempt to figure out their lives, they have to deal with money and family issues.
The show’s creators haven’t said much about the major plot points of the third season, so it’s going to take some time to find out. In a recent interview, Sterlin Harjo said that the third season will have a lot of darkness. After everything the gang has been through over the past two years, it’s hard to imagine what trials they’ll face next. We do know, though, that they’re going to have plenty of jokes and laughter to make up for them. Harjo seems to want Season 3 viewers to be confused as to where the story is going, which will make it even crazier than in the previous seasons.
Reservation Dogs season 3 Release Date
The first season of the show came out in August 2021, and the next month, it was picked up for a second season. The second season started on August 3, 2022, and the next month, the show was picked up for a third season. The third season is set to start in August 2023, but the creators haven’t said when exactly it will come out. Disney Platform Distribution and Disney-ABC Domestic Television are in charge of putting the show on TV.

How many episodes will there be in Reservation Dogs season 3?
Fans are eager to learn how many episodes season 3 of Reservation Dogs will have since the first two seasons were so well-liked. The showrunner has said that there will be 10 to 12 episodes, though nothing has been confirmed as of yet.
Where is Reservation Dogs filming?
Harjo hinted at SCAD TV Fest that the four friends would move back to Oklahoma by saying, “The show doesn’t like shooting in Los Angeles very much.” Okmulgee, Oklahoma, was where the first two seasons of Reservation Dogs were shot. Okmulgee, Tulsa, Sand Springs, Beggs, Inola, and Terlton are all places where the show has been filmed before, and Season 3 could go back to any or all of them. As for when the new season will be shot, the latest online reports say that cameras will start to roll in March 2023. However, this hasn’t been confirmed by the show’s creators, so take this information with a grain of salt.
Reservation Dogs Season 2 Review
In season 2, we get to know The Rez Dogs as an entire group, but also as individuals. The episodes are full of interesting topics that have to do with each teen’s identity, and they are very well done. Elora’s main episode, “Mabel,” which Jacobs helped write, is especially heartbreaking because it shows how Elora’s grief, isolation, and longing are all linked. Bear struggles with feelings of not being good enough and with what it means to be a man. Cheese, who definitely deserved more screen time, still gets his chance to shine in an episode about finding a place to belong when your blood family doesn’t care about you. And Willie Jack steps up to bring people together.
Reservation Dogs’ creators had to make some hard changes to fit this format, but it appears to work well to explore important themes for each character and for the whole community. Some episodes don’t even mention The Rez Dogs at all. Instead, they focus on the aunties on the reservation and then on Officer Big. These episodes are surprising in how heartfelt they are. Not only do they flesh out more characters, but they also treat the reservation as if it were its own living, breathing character.
In the second season of Reservation Dogs, Harjo, and Waititi bring together people from different generations. As we learn more about the adults on the reservation, we can see that these stories keep coming back to the same point. They have continued to struggle against the same wrongs, been led by the same spirits, held on with the help of the same community, and made the same inquiries about who they are, what they are here for, and where they belong. Reservation Dogs is a slow-building drama with a gentle message: rely on and help the people who have come before you.
