Chernobyl

Bloody hell?! Seriously?!

Thank you

Your welcome.

There was one gruesome scene with a dog. After that I had to change channels. Didn’t like knowing that all happened.

The military went a certain radius out and started destroying all the animals. Most were pets.

The hospital scenes make suicide look favorable.

I definitely would have asked for a bullet to the head.

The entire theme of the series is shouted loud and clear in every episode: it's the cost of lies. Like radiation in the human body, they accumulate and never go away until there is simply too much, and the result is fatal. This serves as a great teachable moment to any society...

Final episode tonight?

The guy that plays legasov most likely going to win an award and start popping up in a few major motion movies

Actor Jared Harris discusses the battle on fake news, the Netflix debate and his new HBO/Sky Atlantic TV drama series Chernobyl.

The show focuses on the disaster at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in April 1986 and the sacrifices of the men and women involved in dealing with the fallout and the attempted cover up.

Harris plays Valery Legasov, a leading Soviet physicist who was one the first people to grasp the scale of the disaster and who killed himself on the second anniversary.

I've read that Russia isn't happy about the show.

They are arguing much isn't true but experts say it is and they are simply ashamed to this day.

Of course they aren't, Putin is the modern day Stalin when it comes to silencing free speech and opposition

Chernobyl's EPISODE 5 is now the only 10/10 rated episode on the whole IMDB. There was a period when Winds of Winter (Game Of Thrones) and Ozymandias (Breaking Bad) were 10/10 rated, no longer though.

Gosh if that's bad I'm not sure if I want to watch. I can try to laugh it off now but at the time it was really bad for us, especially as many that I knew (including my own family) were from the Ukraine and we didn't really have the proper Internet sense of how far away we were at the time. As I said our teacher was shit scared trying to tell us all would be well and yet we had that doom and gloom voice on the radio at the time. I guess because my hometown was so far up north so now I'm almost worried about what I'll see now 30 years later.

Man that was shit scary.

My GF (was 6 at the time) and her mom left Belarus a month after this occurred and they still weren't told exactly what happened by any authority.

The mom came to USA in what I suspect is an arranged marriage for financial benefit (the new hubby ain't much to look at) and the daughter is pretty much 100% American now.... but the rest of their family stayed put, the ex hubby and both parents of the mom died in their 40s and 50s within 7 years of this.....
