...it's a toss-up between this and Chernobyl as to the best TV of the year. ...

"Chernobyl" is going to take the prize. So well made on all counts. Production, script, music, acting, direction, art direction...all outstanding.
Only drawback to the series is that some of it was over-dramatized. In other words, some of it didn't happen. The helicopter dumping its chemical load onto the exposed core and crashing did not happen.
By the way, if you liked "Chernobyl," give "The Terror" a go. The actor who was so great in "Chernobyl" -- Jared Harris -- is astonishing as the Captain of the doomed ship in "The Terror." You think things were bad in Chernobyl? Wait till you see what Harris is up against in "The Terror."

Oh, wait a minute, please disregard my post. We are not supposed to talk to each other, right?
