It makes so much sense to hear that she transformed the character and does a lot of improv. The entire cast is amazing, but I'm always most engaged when the Willie character is there. She feels 100% real.
I hope Reservations Dogs get more seasons! Immediately fell in love with the show
@@user-rg5vg2qo7y It better not be the last :(
The cast is amazing! Great show... sad it's ending (final season)...
Coming back for season three august second on Hulu and fx
I hope to see them all grown up and that would be the 4th season and it will be interesting!
Brains, talent, and looks - this young lady will have a long and interesting acting career in her future, if that is what she chooses to keep doing. Keep inspiring the young people to do their best, Paulina!
Definitely is my favorite show on Hulu right now. I'm not Native American, I'm Mexican, but we're kinda the same people:) I love Paulinas voice. She's for sure got swag and her own style. The show wouldn't be the same without her. ❤
Aho
i’m native new mexican, in my mind we’re all cousins 🩷
I agree👍 Cousins. Primos🧡
If you get your DNA tested, I bet it'll come back native. ✌🏽❤
@@NativeTexMexican Indigenous, for sure
This Actor Paulina is going to do amazing things. Mark my words, talented.
She already is:)
her in beans was assstttoooouuunnnndddinnnnggg
Pure genius
"We have the best stories to tell" This one really hit me, because it is true and we want to listen and watch them in other countries of the Earth. We in Euorope know so little about Native Americans and there are minorities who might struggle with sililar problems to keep our nation and culture vivid and hand over as heritage to the next generation. So I felt so deep compassion while watching Reservation Dogs because here we meet similar problems, we dont even have reservation to live at least semi-authonomous life. One of our biggest problem is as Hungarians living teared from our Motherland is to avoid assimilation, the silent genocide and of course to sustain a normal life among the majority nation who are totally different and lot of who look at us even 100 years after the Trianon dictate as an enemy.
Great interview! She is my favorite character on the show and I love her even more after seeing her in this interview. She seems mad chill and cool. The entire cast is awesome as well. I wish you continued success. Yay!!!
Agreed!
Willie Jack was my fave!! Loved the show. I cried at the end of season two.
I love her so much. She is such a real life baddie just like Willie Jack. Brilliant actress and role model. I hope we see more of all the Rez Dogs after this final season!
*Willie Jack is my spirit animal! Love you Paulina with all my heart. Thank you for being you. 💗🥰🤟🏻*
She did the best line of the series: "Can't be tamed."
She represents. Love her personality.
She would be very first indigenous EGOT actress for sure!!!!
I adore this young actress. Willie jack and Reservation Dogs are the best.

Seeing all the kids dressed as Willie Jack for Halloween was an unexpected surprise, but the kids that had their Dads dress up as Leon really made me understand the profound impact Reservation Dogs has had in Indigenous communities. ❤
This show needs, deserves many awards. Love it. Well written, great Casting !
Please don’t stop production!
Reservation Dogs is a great show. Hopefully as word spreads about how great it is, we will see at least guest appearances with actors such as Adam Beech, Graham Greene, and Tantoo Cardinal. Hats off to Sterling and the rest of the writing/production crew for allowing the actors/actresses to "ad-lib". They've got a really good show and it's only getting better as the cast gets more comfortable in their rolls and working with everyone else. Look forward to season 3 and more! And for the younger generation (of ALL people)...listen to your elders, for when they are gone, any history/lessons they have not passed down, are gone...forever!
I agree Adam Beech et al, are amazing actors but we only as natives see those same actors, we have had so few role models to look up to as far as actors. Rez Dogs is phenomenal in that finally we have a representation. All the actors are incredible in this. Willi jack character is my favourite but I become enamored of all the actors every episode. What a great show....
This young lady is talented, pretty and very cool. Love the show and can't wait to see other roles in her future.
She's such a star in the show. She's a huge part of every scene she's in
That accent is intoxicating. She is just so beautiful and ain’t even a celebrity.
I love her and love her in athletic wear.
I met her Dad on FB and he is a good guy.
She's precious 💕
Great interview, esp. her in front of the camera at a young age w her brothers...her production dad...her young dreams...now look at her!!
Inspirational 🙏💚🍀🎉
Accent?
She doesn't have an Accent shes literally native
What an amazing series all the characters were super.
Very interesting interview, and congratulations on your success. Paulina may not understand that her predecessors did give much to opening up the eyes of people who are not indigenous. By making them realize the talent among the first Nations community/ people. I totally agree with Paulina that the mainstream movies very much under represent first nations people for being cast as extras.
I predict that she will be hosting SNL very soon. Especially if Jimmy Fallon were to recommend it.
She seems really cool and is really pretty. Willie Jack is a good character. Her and Cheez are my two characters.
I like the William Knifeman character. Dallas Goldtooth is hilarious!
Her spirit and personality speak volumes! Too bad they got snubbed for the Emmys this year but who needs them anyway?!
Favorite show ever. The writing and the actors are geniuses.
Always want to give Willie a hug and try to make things better for her.
This interview blesses us all.
such a great actor and a joy to hear more about their life and experiences
The cast is amazing! Great show... sad it's ending (final season)...
I loved Willie Jack - my favourite character. So warm and funny. I keep rewatching the episodes because each one is amazing
Awesome interview and show.
I love this interview! He lets her talk, gives her enough time to speak, listen, I love it! So proud of the reservation, dogs, cast and representation of us native people!❤❤❤
they should have a scary episode like the show "the other side" that would be dope or have a collab with them and do a ghost hunt together!
You said it Pailina, we all feel invisible. That's the only way to explain it.Rez Dogs has made that less for me personally.
I love Willie Jack, and I love Reservation Dogs.
best moment in the series - the look she pulls when she spots the deer. :>
Thank you good job ❤
Love this kid, hope she continues with her dreams!
represent! thats our gurl. the nations are very proud.
Willie Jack best character on the show. Awesome series
She’s beautiful inside and out! Love her
I really enjoy your character Willie jack and I think you’re right about now over rehearsing because you’re super authentic in it and that’s what I really like about the character OK thank you for you thank you for all your doing for the native kids much respect.
You rocked the reservation dogs thank u for being part of it.
She's my favorite in the show, I'm glad there was more of her in season 2! I was kind of tired of Elora being whiny in the first season lol
Love her she is so talented and beautiful

She's such a sweetheart
She didn't want to talk to him after she tried to break the ice being herself after the 2nd question. Her expression said it ALL. WE ARE ENJOYING You, Bear, Cheese & Ellora Danan. Good work Natives! MVTO!
Love her!!
Best show on Hulu
I love that show!!!
She’s awesome!❤
Her voice is so adorable
I LOVE HER BRUH
I think Reservation Dogs is very successful because the Native personalities on the show are so relatable in many Native communities, including mine. I feel like I know Willie Jack, Cheese, and Uncle Brownie, etc 😁.
Just finished watching RD yesterday then today this pops up on Google tell me they are not tracking what I’m watching 🤔
Shes down to earth
💯🙏🏽
i love her!
More seasons please!!!!! 🙏🏽 ❤
Willie jack was based on the Willie jack charcter from the 1491s
Native people will shine! AHO!!!
Y’all are beautiful ❤
i love to see it fr wow she the best
How many fuckin times can you say "like" in one interview? 😂😂😂
Wow, you said that, then I listened, wow!!!😂😂
Lol
A lot of likes, but she's a sweetheart ❤️
Even If You Don't Ride As Much So You Don't Get Hurt For The Show Take Your Horse Out And Let Him Or Her Just RUN That Is What They Do That Is What Makes Them Happy They Want To Feel The Dirt Under Their Feet And The Wind In There Face
She’s a great actor and plays a very lovable character. She (the actor) needs to work on her speaking skills, however. She says “like” far too much.
2:21 Huuuh yaaaa 😂
Paulina you are perfect

Needs to be on analog tv channels. Not just Digital providers. Get more average everday person views.
So called oka crisis? Crazy
I love reservation dogs it's everything you'd expect from the cast..however Paulina uses the word "like" in interviews otherwise good actress.
dennis is so dry for what, and kept harping on the point she explained on repeat
