I want this back
2 October 2023
Started a little slow but picked up and I looked forward to it weekly. I liked that the Natives were basically the same as everyone else in their lives, their plans, quirks, mischief. Lots of Native flavor, but no pandering or pushing some guilt agenda into our faces, or whining about being done wrong. The funniest scene in the whole series was two Native guys from different tribes being competitive--like guys do--a each asserting that their tribe did something best and that included how to make fire. They challenged each other and each did it the way of their ancestors and even started the familiar Native chant. It was clever, entertaining, and funny because everyone could see themselves in that. Sigh. Jana Schmieding is a great talent, but her elocution is so poor. She's hard to understand with her voice antics. Yes, elocution lessons for her so she can be intelligible. Almost everyone else spoke excellently. I miss this show and would love watching how the story unfolds. Dang!
