my wife and I have watched every episode so far. We lived in Farmington, NM from ‘99 to ‘03, and are familiar with and respect the local Navajo ways.

I also love Reservation Dogs. Zahn McClarnon is in both and superb in the comedic Reservation Dogs as well as the dramatic Dark Winds. Dark Winds is excellent at truly representing the Navajo reservation (I lived next to it for several years) and the Dine people, and just a well-made series.

He's not big but he was scary and an actor who demands your attention. I haven't seen Longmire but I'll be watchign anything he is in.

Hillerman fan here, but I don't pay much attention to TV.

I'd love to see it.

Found this.......

It's a story itself that's born out of struggle, tragedy, and hope to adapt Tony Hillerman's Navajo crime thriller series following the adventures of Dets Joe Leaphorn and Jim Chee to the screen. With AMC's recent announcement to adapt the late author's work to television in Dark Winds is largely thanks to two giants in the entertainment industry in screen legend Robert Redford and writer George R. R. Martin, the mind behind A Song of Fire and Ice novels that inspired the HBO TV series Game of Thrones. The Hollywood Reporter's James Hibberd, who also wrote the behind-the-scenes book "Fire Cannot Kill a Dragon" that followed the long-running fantasy series through its controversial eighth and final season, chronicled the duo's journey to get the network to commit.

The tv series was pretty different — now I think I should come back to it.
