Would be interesting to see a Ukrainian- or Russian-written and produced version.
My other main criticism is that the way they tell the story, the audience is left to believe that there were only two senior nuclear scientists (Legasov and Khomyuk) working on disaster management and the investigation into what went wrong in the first place, one of whom in the beginning was largely doing the latter investigation more or less on her own and in secret—super conspiracy-like.
The idea that there would have been only two senior scientists working on managing the disaster response is utterly preposterous.
2. It's a dramatic work, not a documentary and there has never been a biopic made that doesn't stream down the cast to make it easier for the audience. Unlike most, Chernobyl made that clear in discussion of the show, the podcast, & I think they showed pictures of them in the final episode.
