Buckle up for bumpy ride down ‘Red Road’ BY KEVIN MCDONOUGH New Jersey isn’t the first place you’d set a drama about a stoic cop and an insular Native American tribe. But that’s where new drama “The Red Roadâ€? (9 p.m., Sundance, TV-14) takes place. Tucked into a forgotten corner of the Garden State, members of the self-proclaimed Lenape tribe live uneasily beside white families, including that of Sheriff Harold Jensen (Martin Henderson). And he’s got troubles of his own. His wife, Jean (Julianne Nicholson), has recently gotten sober and is entirely on edge, particularly when her wayward teenage daughter takes up with a Lenape boy. Police descend on the tribal area after the disappearance of a New York University student, sparking resentment among locals who feel violated and invaded because some “rich kidâ€? went missing. Jensen’s role in the search is further complicated after a hit-and-run incident inflames local tensions. Jason Momoa (“Game of Thronesâ€?) stars as Phillip Kopus, a Lenape and freelance criminal who forges an uneasy alliance with Sheriff Jensen — one based on mutual interests lubricated with a little blackmail. A game cast also includes Tamara Tunie as Phillip’s mother, as well as familiar faces Tom Sizemore and Lisa Bonet. Some may find the pacing a little languid. There’s a fine line between meditative atmosphere building and just plain dull. Those who stick around will probably become smitten with Momoa, a handsome, brooding figure very much at the center of things. “The Red Roadâ€? should make him a star. • “Vikingsâ€? (10 p.m., History, TV-14) returns for a second, 10-episode season, and begins with one of the most violent battle scenes I’ve ever endured. If you can imagine “Gladiatorâ€? combined with the opening moments of “Saving Private Ryan,â€? you’re getting close. Not unlike an eighth-century Michael Corleone, Ragnar (Travis Fimmel) wants to make a move west to consolidate his position and power. But in doing so, he risks losing everything of value and everyone he holds dear, including his wife, Lagertha (Katheryn Winnick), a Dark Ages super-

(10 p.m., IFC, TV-14) returns for a fourth season of slacker silliness. Look for guest star Kirsten Dunst as a young woman who moves into a house haunted by the ghosts of two people (stars Fred Armisen and Carrie Brownstein) who were “confused to deathâ€? by conflicting advice received on NPR and The New York Times.
