A 8/10 show that is definitely worth watching. The whole “cost of lies” bit kind of soured the ending for me though. Would have rather just had the dramatization instead of the weird anti-USSR stuff.
Exactly 40 years ago today on April 26, 1986, the Chernobyl nuclear disaster happened, a devastating disaster that killed and displaced thousands, if you haven’t already i strongly suggest watching the tv show Chernobyl on HBO, it’s phenomenal

The only reason it happened was through the sheer incredible incompetence of the USSR

They had to dramatize it for Hollywood

Fukushima? Three Mile? Deepwater Horizon? This wasn’t a problem that was specifically unique to the USSR. Bureaucratic denial isn’t a socialist concept.

The dramatization is what made it good, I’m not disagreeing with that. There were just weird points where they made the Soviets come across as being innately incompetent. It would be like doing a show on the Deep Horizon and fitting in scenes where the oil baron fat cat comes in to tell everyone they need more oil for their evil deeds.
