Trickster

I do not necessarily agree with some reviews violence drug etc almost exist in a majority of drama I personally never judge a drama by watching only first episode the atmosphere and filmography want to reflect horror and thrill which truly transferred it is not likely a happy ending drama but apparently is aiming on growth of a charachter from drug and crappy life to finding a purpose for his existence fighting for his fathers traditions. I always have been a fan of all native writings and mythology. Raven symbol reminded me of my readings of Castaneda.

I'm a huge fan of Eden Robinson's novels and was incredibly excited to see her work translated into the screen. Jared was such a rich character in the novel I was afraid that a tv show wouldn't quite get him right. Oulette turned out to be perfect for the role....conflicted without self pity, same charm and humour I expected to see in Jared. Great casting for Wade as well. I enjoy seeing these two characters interact.

I see potential in this show, still trying to figure out what the hell is going on. the show reminds me of DARK, that eerie atmosphere to it and whatnot. the cast seems great and the dialogue between the characters feel real. I love to see how they will go with the supernatural Root. my review might change depending on how far the show goes, either way I highly recommend

Bravo to the TRICKSTER creators for bringing together modern, relatable, strong actors of Canadian First Nation heritage. I'm only one episode in, but this show has what so many similar "eerie" and "spooky" shows lack: a stealthy sense of humor.

One moment you're gasping and then something happens and you chuckle involuntarily. Not a big sitcom laff, but a really well-timed and welcome break in tension.

I don't recognize any of the actors and overall the characters they create are solid, dimensional and believable.

I literally had no idea what this was about but 5 mins in and my interest was sparked! This is a supernatural based Indigenous native american drama with a very well done storyline and some great acting from Kalani and Crystal who can do crazy in an utterly believeable way! The young lead male brings alot of sincerity to his role and the wacky redneck boyfriend is spot on nailing that role..I love the native american theme, the setting which shows the struggle and poverty that exits there as well...the woods, the witchcraft and the trickster...I wont say what that is or means as I dont want to spoil anything...Needless to say its refreshing, the indiginous cast rocks and the story is both deepening and riveting to me...Definitely worth a watch if you like mystery and mysticism..
