Because its one of the most criticized scenes and has been called out as such. This was 1986 not 1936 and a member of the Central Committee would not threaten people with their lives. The scene where Dyatlov threatens people with being fired is much more akin to how the Soviet system worked. People didn't comply due to fear of their lives anymore but due to fear of their jobs. In general the series does an excellent job to portray the accident and the effort to cleanup, an exceptional portrayal of the views of Soviet lives in the 1980s and a horrible, outright terrible portrayal of the soviet system that made the accident happen. The entire tagline "whats the price of lies" and how Lesganov contemplates on it in his suicide tape is entirely fictional, so is the trial scene. They made an excellent job but fell on the finish line.

@@DL-lt5ly It's a fiction based on actual events, and it's mostly true to the core events, as far as we can tell. Many scenes were fake, recomposed, or an exageration of the truth. They even acknowledge this by the end of chapter 5, telling facts from fiction about the characters. Yet, they did their research, driving millions of people to do the same, people whose basic understanding has probably been upgraded by now. Who cares that scene never happened, it conveys the series message beautifully, it helps depicting the scale of the accident horror, and it's a great moment of cinematography.

I’m surprised that the show wasn’t out under the “horror” category. The show is terrifying, it just scares me. From the dramatic irony to the stunning spectacles, it is wonderful. I genuinely loved the series because of how frightening it was. Like how the worker turns around and you just see the smoke pluming behind him and his face is completely red. Or like watching how the firefighters are decaying in front of us, it’s just horrifying the whole way through. And the entire cast and crew did a wonderful job, from the sounds of a Geiger counter going apesh*t to a hearing the metal ringing while the worker is stuck on the roof, the whole series is just perfect. I love it, and it’s made like a masterpiece. HBO did an amazing job honoring those who died while defending Europe from a horrible demise.

I think Boris "You were the one that mattered most, the one good man" part was one of the most emotional and best spoken lines on the show. To have a man that wanted to do good, but felt he hadn't done good his entire life. To have, as he approaches death, a good friend of him tell him that he was the reason they were successful at Chernobyl in preventing more loss of life was simply beautiful. Can you imagine what that would mean to someone in the same situation, to think of yourself as a failure not accomplishing your goals, but at what will be close to the end of your life you finally feel that you did actually do something meaningful, and not only to be told that, but to be told by a friend and someone you trust which makes it even more impactful.

The helicopter crash had nothing to do with radiation Radiation is not contagious, after washing the person, they are harmless, and there is no way it would be absorbed by a baby like the show implies The bridge of death never actually happened it was an urban legend 80% of all the people involved survived, and didn't all die like the show implies The show may be a good watch but it's more anti nuclear propaganda which people seem to be taking as facts And more probably more

I have only seen small parts of the show to be honest so I dont know what happened with the baby for example but I the liquidators were real heroes but never got a lot of attention and 80% survived still means up to 100.000 of them died, and that's a lot in my opnion

There are a lot of great moments in this show. The one really stuck with me is when the fire fighters wife described him what Moscow is like when there's nothing outside the window but walls. He still jokingly says " told ya I'll take you to Moscow!" ..When she puts sunglasses on her husband, she laughed genuinely because he does looks foolish at first glance, that slight moment she almost forgot that he is horribly ill. In such a tragedy, moments like these really hits me hard.

Akimov had done everything right in the world of lies that he was forced to believe

Shcherbina's arc in this series is fantastic. Deep down i think he was a man who wanted to do the right thing, but couldn't because of the system around him, Chernobyl gave him the chance he wanted to make a difference.

HBO's Chernobyl is an absolute masterpiece of cinematography and there is no other way to put it. The scenes, the music, the tension, the emotions, the perspective, etc all come together so perfectly the whole 5+ hours I was glued, I could not stop. It is so well made and done I think this will be my favorite piece of cinematography forever. Favorite scenes 5: Akimov and Toptunov turning on the flow of water even thought they both know they will die from it. 4: The bridge scene. Seems so innocent but the slight blue haze the 'atomic snow' and the music tell a different story. 3: The scene where one engineer is told to go to the roof and report back what he sees. He looked directly into the reactor core and his face was burnt immediately. 2: The court scene, Valery explaining what went wrong and why. 1: The 3 divers opening gates so the water can drain and save millions of people from sickness and death. Most moving scenes 3: The court scene. 2: Charkov telling Valery that he will never be known for what he did in the cell. 1: Vasily being buried. The music, the shots, and the closeups shook me.

My favourite moment was probably General Pikalov 'Even with protection it probably wont be enough' 'Then I'll do it myself'

Before I had seen HBO's Chernobyl, or very much of it, I had seen an interview of Anatoly Dyatlov and I actually felt some sympathy for him. After all, he spent years in prison and died not long after the interview of radiation related illness, in 1995. Once I had seen all the episodes of 'Chernobyl', Dyatlov became a monster. True, a monster created by the old Soviet Union, but a real, blood dripping, ravening monster. I used to work on CT and MRI Scanners and the CT's were X-Ray machines, so I had to have radiation training. I was never very good at all the different measurements; Becquerels, Sieverts, Roentgens, Rads, Rems and so on, but I did know a Roentgen is a huge amount of radioactivity - huge. For me, the most shocking moment in the film was where the Health Physicist goes to the Political Director and tells him; all the meters were reading 3.6 Roentgens. The Director asks; "So what?" "They are only calibrated to 3.6 Roentgens, the reading must be much higher." The Director says; "If they are reading 3.6 Roentgens, then the reading IS, 3.6 Roentgens! I'm not telling Moscow anything else.!" And there you had it, the whole smash, right there. RIP the fallen of Chernobyl.

The scene of horror.

My favourite scene was when the boss of the miners told that joke "What is high as a building, burns tons of fuel every hour, makes a shitload of steam and noise and cuts an apple in 3 pieces? - A soviet machine that was built to cut an apple into 4 pieces!"

So many great lines in the last episode: "Every lie incurrs a debt to the truth, and one day that debt is repaid" "Why worry, it'll never happen. Oh that''s perfect. They should put it on our money" And the whole closing monologue, ending with "What is the cost of lies"

The part where Shcherbina lets the caterpillar crawl on his hand and says it's beautiful. So sad, because you know he's dying.
