I like this show so don't get me wrong here,but I don't think it's going to get too many viewers and it will be something only TV nerds talk about, aka the leftovers.
There's like 3 or 4 shows coming up more tuned to general audiences and it's going to pull way more attention.

Another nod to the 'No one owns the cons harder than they own themselves' thread. Lots of good replies.

"7 dumbasses on twitter said something stupid, let's make an article about it and make it a story"
yeah, and they took away some of the credit for things Legasov did to give it to her. The director explained it by saying that the female protagonist is an amalgamation of the dozens of other scientists tasked with the crisis management, but I am not sure I really buy it. Maybe that's HBO trying to appease people still salty from Khalesee being a Dragon Hitler. :teehee

btw they mentioned Holodomor in Ep4. Etiolate continues to dump truckloads of radioactive L's on us from beyond the concrete grave.
:stahp
Though certainly not on the level of Chernobyl, I've always found the Demon Core to be a fascinating story:

Let's do some nuclear testing! What tools do we need? I dunno, just poke it with a screwdriver.And they did it twice, the screwdriver was the second time they fucked with it and poisoned a bunch of people. And then they were still going to use it even though the science had made clear that it was obviously cursed. It took the prior test to screw up for them to finally melt it down for good.
The nuclear testing days were crazy. The best uranium separators at Oak Ridge were not the scientists but the Elevated American girls they brought in to watch the dials. The scientists were prone to futzing with crap and "let's try this" like poking stuff with screwdrivers while the girls just separated the isotopes.
Tennessee Eastman was hired by the Army Corps of Engineers to manage Y-12 during the Manhattan Project. The company transferred scientists from Kingsport, Tennessee to Y-12 and operated the plant from 1943 to May 1947. The Y-12 electromagnetic plant units were initially operated by scientists from Berkeley to remove bugs and achieve a reasonable operating rate. They were then turned over to trained Tennessee Eastman operators who had only a high school education. Nichols compared unit production data, and pointed out to physicist Ernest Lawrence that the young "hillbilly" girl operators were outproducing his PhDs. They agreed to a production race and Lawrence lost, a morale boost for the Tennessee Eastman workers and supervisors. The girls were "trained like soldiers not to reason why", while "the scientists could not refrain from time-consuming investigation of the cause of even minor fluctuations of the dials".

Part of this crusade is a Russia-produced series from the country’s NTV channel. Directed by filmmaker Alexei Muradov, their project will focus not on the aftermath of the explosion, but instead on what Shepelin calls a “conspiracy theory” that inserts American spies into the narrative.
It's almost like the Soviet regime and KGB never left
:mindblown
I had a suspicion that they would say the "A-ZED 5" kill switch failure was deliberate sabotage by the Americans.
“One theory holds that Americans had infiltrated the Chernobyl nuclear power plant and many historians do not deny that, on the day of the explosion, an agent of the enemy’s intelligence services was present at the station,” the Russian show’s director Alexei Muradov told the Moscow Times — a theory that the non-state funded paper said was crafted by “fringe conspiracy theorists.”
