A lesson on the art of blending over-the-top with real-life experience.
The Big Picture Let’s face it. When it comes down to drug sequences in films and TV it quickly becomes apparent when the creative team has no idea what they’re trying to convey. Things can go off the rails rather quickly with over-the-top visuals and auditory hallucinations plaguing characters in a way that would never happen in a real-world setting. But, at the same time, exaggerations are needed to keep the audience invested.
At the tail end of Season 2, audiences watched in a mixture of amusement and horror as Zahn McClarnon’s tightly-wound Officer Big took an accidental dose of acid thanks to the crew at the salvage yard. Jumping in to join him on the experience was Kirk Fox’s Kenny Boy with the duo embarking on an out-of-mind journey.
Fast-forward to the show’s latest episode. Titled “House Made of Bongs,” the story rewinds a few decades to the 1970s where audiences watch those who we now know as the elders in their wild and free teenage years.
The Feeling of Community Reservation Dogs has always been a show about community. For the three seasons, the story has stayed within the small community in Oklahoma where everyone knows each other’s business. Despite these tight-knit bonds, the characters still grapple with loneliness and feelings of being misunderstood - something the creative team has been able to display with heavy hands of both comedy and drama.
