It’s official: “Reservation Dogs” is coming back for the third season. On Sept. 22, FX and Hulu picked up the series for another episode ahead of the Sept. 28 season 2 finale, The Hollywood Reporter confirmed.
The coming-of-age show – which was created by Sterlin Harjo and Taika Waititi – stars D’Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai, Kawennáhere Devery Jacobs, Paulina Alexis and Lane Factor as a group of four teenagers natives living in rural Oklahoma. Although Hulu didn’t immediately respond to POPSUGAR’s request for comment, Harjo issued a statement to THR, saying, “I couldn’t be prouder of this show that I created with my friend Taika Waititi.” He continued, “It was born out of a conversation in Taika’s kitchen and has now made its way into the lives of people around the world. The love for season two has been exceptional. Thanks to FX for having Ordered season three, glad to bring you more laughs and love from Rez. Ahoooo!”
