Chimerica - Season 1
The series offers a wide range of events that a news photographer experiences against his or her painful reality. The events of the series began when the press photographer tried to save his career when he was accused of falsifying a picture of his award-winning image. It is a new series of conflicts that will confront that man in front of that painful reality that could ruin his career. Now, this man must face his reality and defend himself.

The two narratives seem oddly grafted, diverging in tone, but writer Lucy Kirkwood deserves some credit for not merely sticking to a western perspective.

At its beat-up heart, Chimerica is a sprawling, unwieldy and ambitious take on a sprawling and unwieldy subject.

There are interesting dichotomies explored in Chimerica... However, while Kirkwood's witty dialogue keeps the pace whipping along, the drama is not without its clichés.
