I've seen the first couple of episodes and it is brilliant. The first episode exceeded my expectations I mean, every single shot was just superb. I think what makes it even more worrying for you is that this is a depiction of real life events. The directors and the writers have done a really good job so far. As someone who wasn't born in the Ukraine or had heard about the Chernobyl disaster before this show is certainly very insightful. Dropped right after GOT so I guess it's something to heal those wounds from a not so great GOT finale
