Chernobyl is a fantastic TV miniseries that studies the Chernobyl disaster and its aftermath in a gritty, realistic approach that elevates the feel and emotion of the people who would be affected by the disaster in real-life. The atmosphere of the show is top notch thanks to the way it is shot with awesome cinematography and the haunting musical score that perfectly illustrates what it was like to be living in a post-disaster environment. There's top notch acting from everyone, as well as gripping storylines following people and tasks to solve that can be quite nerve-wracking. Knowing almost all of it actually happened makes it so poignant.

I cannot praise this show enough already. It's only 5 episodes long but every episode brings something different to the table. I've heard people complain about all of the actors speaking in British accents. I admit it's a bit weird at first, but you get used to it and can look past it as the rest of the show is so great that it's just being nitpicky. Overall, Chernobyl gives you an excellent view of what happened during the disaster and by the end of the journey, you'll be emotionally gripped and upset that the ride is over. I'd suggest you spend an entire day to binge-watch the experience. It's definitely one you won't forget and will not regret watching!
