Chernobyl: Episode 1 - Patreon Version
Added 2025-02-03 17:00:15 +0000 UTC
Hey Everyone!
Now that Firefly is finished, I'm going to be starting Chernobyl. Way back when, we did our "Which TV Series should we watch next" poll and Chernobyl tied with Firefly, so here we are!
Also, you might be wondering why Jordan isn't joining me for this one... Firstly he's actually seen it already! I was much too scared to watch it then, but now that I've got all of you I figure I can be brave haha. And second, now that we have a little one it's tougher to both watch everything together, so this one is just me ❤️❤️❤️
Oh dang! We'll definitely consider that, thanks for the recommendation

Please consider the tv show “Sherlock” next! Amazing series. Like Chernobyl, it’s one of the highest ever rated on IMDb.

I would consider having Jordan screen comments for you. I've seen a lot of reactions to this show and I feel like, because it's based on a true story, some people feel it's okay to be careless with spoilers. It's an incredible series, and I hope you enjoy it.

Back at the time people here in the US found out that there had been an accident at a Soviet nuclear power plant. The details and extent of the accident were kept secret for years. One thing you need to realize when watching this is how different Soviet society was from the West and how intensely they protected State Secrets. 10's of thousands of agents were dedicated to spying on fellow Soviet citizens resulting in people being very reluctant to challenge whatever The State told them.

Really excited to watch this one with you! I recently lost my job and watching your guy's videos is something for me to look forward to and take my mind off things for a while. Thank you!! For this series, something I'd highly recommend is listening to The Chernobyl Podcast. It's a podcast with the show's creator. There is a companion podcast episode for each episode of the show and they were careful not to spoil future episodes, so you can listen episode by episode. It gives some behind the scenes on the show as well as info about the real events and how they were adapted into the show. Pretty sure it's available on YouTube. Highly recommend!

Excited for this. No worries about just the one of you guys. Just glad family and little one are doing good. Like most people said, this one is pretty intense. This is one of the only shows or movies I've watched, where I was yelling in frustration at my tv.

It's not so much scary as it is astonishingly heartbreaking, which you have already seen just in this episode alone

The first words describe the entire series. "What is the cost of lies?"
