    Beginning with the iconic Indian Head test pattern, which followed television station sign-offs and preceded sign-ons from the mid-1940s to the 1970s, representations of Native Peoples have been a constant presence on TV. This book examines these representations, focusing on situational comedies of the 20th and early 21st centuries. Analysing dozens of sitcoms from the United States and Canada, the book complicates assumptions that Native representations on TV are inherently stereotypical and escapist.

    Preface: Sign-on: a sitcom kid -- Introduction: Decolonized viewing, decolonizing views -- New frontier televisions -- Settler self-determination -- The neo-Indian in King of the hill -- Sitcom sovereignty in mixed blessings -- Conclusion: Sign-off: digital test patterns

    "Native Americans have been a constant fixture on television, from the dawn of broadcasting, when the iconic Indian head test pattern was frequently used during station sign-ons and sign-offs, to the present. In this first comprehensive history of indigenous people in television sitcoms, Dustin Tahmahkera examines the way Native people have been represented in the genre. Analyzing dozens of television comedies from the United States and Canada, Tahmahkera questions assumptions that Native representations on TV are inherently stereotypical and escapist. From The Andy Griffith Show and F-Troop to The Brady Bunch, King of the Hill, and the Native-produced sitcom, Mixed Blessings, Tahmahkera argues that sitcoms not only represent Native people as objects of humor but also provide a forum for social and political commentary on indigenous-settler relations and competing visions of America. Considering indigenous people as actors, producers, and viewers of sitcoms as well as subjects of comedic portrayals, Tribal Television underscores the complexity of Indian representations, showing that sitcoms are critical contributors to the formation of contemporary indigenous identities and relationships between Native and non-Native people"--Provided by publisher
