is really unreliable and reckless.

The two guys who break into the Ingalls house.

Yeah.

And I also think they do a really good job of not showing the Osage characters as just victims.

No.

Or just savages.

I hate to use the word savages, but I think that's how a lot of media have depicted Native peoples in Western settlement stories.

Or unlearned, right?

Yeah.

Yes, exactly.

But it's like, no, we're seeing folks who are educated.

We're seeing folks who have marital strife.

We're seeing folks who push back in big and small ways against the settlers in small ways where it's like, I'm going to steal your coffee.

And in bigger ways where they're meeting with other leaders and saying, what can we do as far as policy is concerned?

And I like that we see that diversity of approaches.

And the diversity of characters because normally we don't see that in Western settlement stories.

It usually is just like they're all like this, those people.

And instead we're coming inside the homes and the conversations with the native characters on this show.

Of course, the Ingalls family is still the primary focus of the show though.
