and man radiation sickness has got to the be the most painful long suffering way to die and you know you're going to die soon once you inhaled enough of it. Great show. Do not have any negative words to say about it.

Let him finish. Suge Boris in my hbo top 5.
Masterful.
Everybody involved in the show's creative process did their thing. From the writing, set design, research, atmosphere, all the way down to the music. They kept shyt tight from episode 1-5 with little to no slip up while making you feel the magnitude of the situation.

What a powerful ending. That epilogue with the follow ups...I shed one.
Radiation is so random. Can’t believe everyone on the bridge died but two of those three diver volunteers are still alive.
We're all lucky to be alive brehs

Knowing the internet, people will start downvoting it just to prevent it from staying on top. (I wouldn't even be shocked if some of those votes came from within Russia).
Dyatlov might be the biggest a$$hole in existence
True, but as Legasov pointed out they all had so much faith in their cheaply-made machine (and its broken "OFF" button that was an unintentional "self-destruct" button) that they thought they could put any moron in charge.
Watching the power surge like
Watching a bunch of damn near 800 lbs worth of metal bounce up and down like people on a trampoline like
Seeing the disaster through the timeline in the trial was more nerve racking than the first episode. shyt had me like
the whole time.
Man, give this show ALL the awards.

The atmosphere and acting in this shyt is god levels
The fact that this actually really happened
This is honestly the most disturbing scary thing I've ever seen

If you would of told me that between GOT season 8 and Chernobyl. 2 season that only had 5 episodes and 6 episodes with 7 season of build up. That the historical drama would blow a fantasy epic out of the water and tell a complete story in only 5 episodes... Didn't see that coming.
Get bodied by another HBO show us one thing, but a historical drama. Wow

This last episode. Wow. Powerful stuff. Like people are saying, what makes it good is that it’s true. The magnitude of this disaster is huge and they did a very great job telling the story in a creative way. The main point isn’t that the reactor exploding, its the causes and effect surrounding what led to it, how it effected people, and the serious outcomes. And people think the “villain” of this story is the radiation. No the true villain is human hubris. Radiation is a natural occurrence that we human, who over estimate our own genius, thought we could cheaply control and harness. It was incompetence and vanity that nearly made most of Europe uninhabitable.
Dyaltov paid for the hubris with a great suffering. You saw that last pic of him? He looked 90. He was only 62. Both Boris and Legasov gone. Legasov was nice and gave him 5 years. He lasted 4. Legasov may have committed suicide but he gave himself up so truth could be heard.
The only negative for this show is and maybe it was because of time constraint but in real life Legasov was sort of a “superstar” in the scientific community and he had a whole family, was a athletic person who was well known. He wasn’t a loner as the show suggest so when he did commit suicide, it stunned his family and the scientific community a lot. I wish they displayed his family so you can feel the shock from his death and how it spurned the government into redesigning the reactors and giving Legasov the recognition that KGBreh promised he was never going to have. It’s because the respect he had in the community that they went and protested and kept his name and legacy out there. Also think breh might have taken his own life in a final act of defiance like fukk you radiation.
Either way.... top 5 hbo show. Easily. And maybe it’s unfair because it only has 5 episodes. But the effort, acting, writing and cinematography. Top notch tv

They talked about this on the first episode of the podcast. You focus on his family and the shyt turns into a soap opera. Nobody wants to see that. Even the hospital scene with the firefighter and his wife was seen as more than enough.
