One posted on Google reviews: ‘This show is truly beautiful. Watching it made me realise how little representation there has been for Indigenous peoples, especially for those in the North.

‘It is incredible to see a show with a majority Indigenous cast, set in the North, and actually centred around Indigenous culture and language. This is one of my all time favourite shows and we’re only 6 episodes in!

‘I am so grateful to everyone a part of this for creating something that was long over due. I hope we get many more seasons of this show and that we get more film and television that authentically represents Indigenous communities, their cultures, and their languages!’;

‘I can’t say enough about this show it is so fantastic. Please let there be a season 2. Great job to the cast and crew.’;

‘Love love loveeee this show! so funny and heartfelt, with complex and interesting characters. Both the costume and sound design are out of this world!’;

‘This new Canadian series is refreshing and clever. Well done and so looking forward to many season to follow.’;

‘Absolutely loving this show so far. It’s made me laugh out loud a few times in the first 2 episodes. It’s stunning to watch and I’m enjoying learning a little bit about the culture! Can’t wait for the next episodes.’;

‘Something completely unique and funny! Great to see something that is well written and funny set in unfamiliar territory. A good surprise and good casting of the main character. Well done CBC.’

Sci-fi series Resident Alien first aired back in 2021 and follows extraterrestrial Dr. Harry Vanderspeigle (Alan Tudyk) after he crashed-landed onto Earth on a mission to destroy the human race.

Based in Colorado, the alien soon becomes enthralled by human beings and instead of exterminating, forms connections with them instead.

Harry even goes as far as trying to defend the planet from alien threats.

Based on a comic book series with the same name by Peter Hogan and Steve Parkhouse, Resident Alien has three seasons so far, with a fourth currently in the works.

North Of North is available to watch on Netflix.
