Sterlin Harjo explains Lee Raybon’s reaction to success in The Lowdown season two
Creator Sterlin Harjo discusses the inspiration for Season 2 of the FX series The Lowdown and actor Ethan Hawke's character arc.
Harjo draws from personal experience
Sterlin Harjo told Variety that Lee Raybon's struggle with acclaim mirrors his own feelings after Reservation Dogs launched. The creator lived in a studio loft in downtown Tulsa when his show suddenly became popular. He admitted he did not handle the sudden attention well at first.
Season two explores self love
The second season focuses on how characters learn to love themselves and extend that feeling to others. Harjo noted that Lee Raybon initially rejects awards because he feels uncomfortable with the recognition. This behavior represents a knee-jerk reaction to fame rather than genuine acceptance.
