I thought Night Country was decent enough TV, but the part that makes me feel just a bit icky about it was that it revolved so heavily around Native Alaskan identities and was basically made without any significant involvement from Native Alaskans.

Kali Reis, who played Navarro, one of the leads in Night Country, is at least indigenous American, but she’s Wampanoag from New England, which is very far from Alaska.
