Chimerica

Although it is fiction and based on a play, I'm sure that it would not make great viewing for people with strong political views.

Personally I watched it as a neutral and I liked how they have adapted it to be set around the time of the 2016 US election.

Bad journalist I have read all reviews for this mini-series. Some I agree with and some are just odd. The first thing you read on the screen is that it is a fiction story about a true event. What bothered me the most is the stupidity of the journalist who selfishly put everyone in danger, and not learning from his mistakes. Call it naïve, or just being American, this journalist is so reckless that I really don't know how he managed to get into Syria or china at that time and survive. Overall, I liked the story. I believe the oppression in china is worse than what we have seen in the series. And about the Chinese speaking the Chinese, well, for me it was perfect because I don't speak the language.

I find the criticisms of chinese born readers interesting but not unusual. Very proud people and those that have immigrated and usually unaware of how them have been indoctrinated. Most are unaware of the truths of much of post-war china both internally and with its neighbors. Of course, their are many dramas criticizing all countries in the western world , US and European. and any dramas containing non-english speakers always have questionable use and pronunciation of the foreign language involved. The use of french, polish, swedish, russian in english dramas are simply laughable. so this odd use of chinese in this drama is just normal. Try listening to the use of english in chinese movies by actors playing the role of westerners. we all should not take offense so easily. nothing critical is intended here in my opinion of the chinse

Bad acting, pro- Hilary propaganda is just too much, and the picture of the killed woman in Syria BY THE RUSSIANS is just stop please- too much propaganda! But, I gave it 9 cuz of the story. It Is important to be heard. And the scenario and the story plot is really good, it keeps your attention.

I think just because the Chinese in the show doesn't conform to your view of standard Chinese doesn't mean they're foreigner or born overseas either. First you should look at how many dialect does Chinese have and without the most basic understanding of how different they're it's silly to say what you have said. What if they were speaking haika or hokin? What if it's Manchu? It's disappointing review given really

I think the show is a great intro for Chinese who do not even have access to the basic fact of the event and start understanding what ideas are those people fighting for. Ideas that aren't even allowed to mention without being deleted on their social media
