[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well haters, the ratings were fantastic and Issa got the next season. I love that a woman told a story about the oppression of indigenous people (especially women), and the nature of trauma and grief.[/quote]

To me Lopez painted women and indigenous people as irrational, incompetent, and impulsive  
-Both female lead detectives were terrible at their jobs. Couldn't figure out that a dozen random cleaning ladies stormed the station on initial investigation. Couldn't figure out the caves were under the station when they had a map. Killed or attacked the domestic violence guys in the only other cases we saw them investigate. Let the cleaning ladies go. Encouraged the coverup of the elder Prior's death
-Cop and her sister commit suicide because they see ghosts. To me it is insulting to portray that suicide is a noble death for the indigenous women and they did it twice!
-Cleaning ladies find a drill bit six years after the fact and decide storming the station and killing the ALL the scientists is the way to go without any evidence which scientists actually killed Annie

The most redeeming characters were the young male cop (killed his dad), Rose (disposed of bodies) and the bar guy. [/quote]
