7. Best show on tv, made by Indigenous people

From creator Sterlin Harjo to veteran actors like Gary Farmer and Zahn McLarnon to the young natives playing the teenagers, it does the best job of portraying the kind of Native people I knew growing up. As the OP said, they are self-deprecating and funny, and have a lot to teach us about not taking ourselves so seriously, among other lessons. I love it and glad to see other series like Dark Winds, which is also great and stars McClarnon.
