They said in the podcast they found another former soviet city with those same style buildings as Pripyat (I forget where exactly) and then with some strategic CGI and camerawork were able to make it look completely accurate.
I call it "Celebration". It's sexual, and violent...

I heard somewhere there is an actual plant somewhere - Yugoslavia maybe, that is identical to Chernobyl, and they filmed them there.

never seen a series come this close to perfection as Chernobyl - simply amazing

also, remember this thread and the picture of Soviet Mickey Mouse?

I chuckled when I saw him pop up in the last episode

agree completely.

Spoiler!
i really liked how they did the intro 2 years later so you knew Logasov was still alive and they didn't shoot him. I wasn't really familiar and didn't look up any of the details so I had no idea if he would tell the true testimony or not until he did.

Legasov is a hero in the truest sense of the word.... took immense courage to bring the truth to light.

Massive props to the dudes who waded through the water under the reactor... AND to that mining crew who dug the tunnels. Bravery beyond words.

I think the thing that amazed me most was that mother who not only survived the radiation poisoning after her baby died, but had ANOTHER kid (who by all accounts seemed to grow up ok). Amazing.

Crazy to think that we won’t get to see Chernobyl open again in our lifetimes... I do wonder what will eventually happen with it.

10/10. Really like the detail in his testimony as someone in the industry. They did a great job of actually explaining what happened.

Decent show I do wish it showed the horrors of the event a bit more though. I'm fascinated by radiation poisoning so I wish they explored that a bit more.
It was only recently I discovered that all nuclear power is is basically a steam generator. I always thought the power came from the nuclear reaction itself, not used to convert water to steam to turn a turbine.

Watching the series a second time. It's way bleaker now that I'm picking up more details, especially watching the general drive past those abandoned fire trucks in the second episode.

Did you try reading it it with a better meter? Because I read it with mine and my reading was off the charts... even burned one meter up.

they probably sent me one of those faulty counters from bb.com moscow headquarters





What’s as big as a house, burns 20 liters of fuel every hour, puts out a ****-load of smoke and noise, and cuts an apple into three pieces?

Just binged this in the last few days. Nuclear anything has been interesting to me since I was in high school and did a research paper on Hiroshima.

Another brutal part that hasn’t been mentioned on here, when they talk about the people on the bridge who were all watching...so many emotionally devastating scenes.

Same here.. Dunno if I have the balls - or brains to ever work with it, but I still find it interesting. Especially anything to do with the Manhattan Project. Those were the OG's. Tell 'em Bob.
