The series has always been able to balance social commentary with humor, though less so this season than in Season 1. Life will inevitably pull these friends apart, but how will the series navigate making the struggles of getting a job, paying bills, and crafting an adult life interesting? It could be by making a bigger effort to examine issues on Indigenous reservations. This season gave us a little bit of that, with Elora now living on her own and starting to make her own decisions with her grandmother’s house and Bear getting a job. Maybe because, as an audience, the nostalgia of high school and the multiple possibilities are better than the mundane things we actually do as adults. When a series transitions out of high school and into the real world it’s always tricky. They’re a group but it’s continuing to deepen and really look at their individual arcs,” said Harjo. “That’s where we’ll find them in the next season, almost on an individual journey.

It’s actually ironic that Season 2 started with Elora having an aborted trip to California and culminates with Bear being the one to decide to stay. The Res Dogs will now enter their senior year, and Bear’s outburst that he wants to stay in California will no doubt be a large influence on Season 3. No doubt Daniel’s death will always be at the periphery of these character’s mind, as it is in life, but this season felt firmly about the future, not the past. Harjo said it wasn’t enough to keep grief at the center, and it’s the best move the show could take. This awareness is never spoken, but watching Season 2 it’s obvious the friends needed to find their own goals and individual dreams that might, or might not, be in their own hometown. Fans have had glimpses into Daniel’s fractious home life before, and after watching the final two episodes of Season 2, it’s obvious that none of the group will ever know Daniel’s motivations for ending his life, but California might not have saved him at all. “We can’t have the whole show every season be about them trying to get to California,” co-creator Sterlin Harjo told IndieWire, and while that’s true by Season 2, it became apparent that leaving the res wasn’t the answer for the characters.

'Reservation Dogs' Shines a Light on 'Heartfelt Comedy' of Indigenous Funerals The first season mourned the immediate loss of their friend, while simultaneously having them critique how much of Daniel’s unhappiness was because he lived on the reservation. Having Bear, Elora, Willie Jack, and Cheese (D’Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai, Devery Jacobs, Paulina Alexis, and Lane Factor, respectively) have an imagined seaside reunion with Daniel (Dalton Cramer) was a strong decision. A trip to California, a meeting with white Jesus, and a trip to the beach was enough for the Res Dogs to finally close the chapter on what sparked the series in the first place and enter Season 3 with an entirely clean slate. But the season finale, appropriately titled “I Still Believe,” ultimately drew the foursome back together to find strength and faith in their friendship. The sophomore season of Sterlin Harjo’s “Reservation Dogs” felt a lot like the final season of “Atlanta,” with an emphasis on strong bottle episodes that ultimately compelled the Res Dogs to seek their own individual identities.
