Born to be Alive is a Chinese drama set in the 1990s, a Qinghai-Tibet Plateau region depended heavily on farming and livestock, sinking into poverty. A nearby uninhabited zone with minerals and wildlife attracted poachers and illegal miners.
There’s probably another neo-Western American series that this is more similar to than Longmire. My first thought is the series of thriller novels by CJ Box, Joe Pickett, which I understand to be about a game warden fighting murderous poachers. But Longmire is more well-known, so I felt that would better serve the joke.
There’s a linked playlist that has some (all?) episodes on YouTube but it is geo-blocked in Amerikkka. However I easily found it on pirate streaming sites, with much better subtitles than the auto-translated version provided by YouTube.
It happens in some Western shows too (of course I can’t think of any examples off the top of my head. Is live action One Piece western? Idk haven’t watched it) and I don’t know why. Like that guy isn’t a pirate wearing clothing, he’s an actor wearing a newly-purchased pirate costume.
Budget is probably the reason but idk the inner workings of media. Pay costume designers enough to make my slop believable!
