A bittersweet finale captures what made this irreverent, sincere comedy so spectacular in the first place.
If there’s one turn of phrase that Bear, Elora, and the rest of theFor three seasons, characters young and old have spouted it back and forth, up and down the fictional streets of the fictional Oklahoma reservation town of Okern. Sometimes it’s used as an insult, sometimes as a term of endearment.

“That’s how community works,” Hokti says. “It’s sprawling; it spreads. What do you think they came for when they tried to get rid of us? Our community. You break that, you break the individual.” Although he might be dead, she emphasized, “Fixico isn’t gone. He’s right here—between you and me.”might want its viewers to find in its understanding of community, the series also carries a vital reminder of how white America has tried to destroy that source of power.
