Cra$h & Burn

2009–2010 · 1 season

A grimy, wry crawl through office politics and street-level scams, where every claim hides a hustle and decency feels like a losing bet.

Overview
Follow streetwise insurance adjuster Jimmy Burn as he navigates the gritty city streets. He is squeezed between the cutthroat corporate culture that is big insurance, the con artists that make a living claim by claim and the city-wide infiltration of organized crime. Jimmy must dodge shifty clients, crooked lawyers, backstabbing co-workers and the Russian mob as he fights to keep his job. All the while, fighting to make a life for himself and struggling to grab a piece of the middle-class dream – home, family and security.
