I’ll urge everyone to give Radioactive Emergency a watch (while our air, water, and soil get contaminated and the world as we know it crumbles before our eyes). Go to Full Review Joel Keller Decider Mar 23
The show’s writers try to give the characters personal stories, but for the most part those stories take a back seat once the disaster starts to unfold. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Luan A. @LuanVuitton 5d Beautifully told story of a very sad radiological tragedy that occurred in Brazil. Based on a true story. See more Márcio C @RT60369594 6d I'm from Goiânia and I was here in 1987, I was 7 years old, and it was total despair. The true heroine of the tragedy is Maria Gabriela, who in the series is called Antônia. If they hadn't taken care right from the start, it could have been catastrophic. I didn't have contact with any of the accident victims at the time; I only met one of them years later. See more Mario F. @mariofernav Mar 29 If you loved Chernobyl, you will love this one. It’s amazingly well done, all acting is top notch and feels just as scary See more Read all reviews
