    watched the first three eps last night. Very well done but i definitely would prefer it in Russian with Sub instead of Eng.

    I think if we had to find russian actors it wouldn't of been done as well (No offence to russians) but they selections they got to choose from wouldn't of been as large.

    Not just that, but a lot of people just hate reading subtitles in general. At least with English speaking actors, it would reach a wider audience.

    American audiences (the primary audience) generally hate subtitles, or anything not American haha. It was not even an option from what I understand.

    1986 was also the Challenger disaster if I recall - a pretty big year for world news in general.

    The podcast discusses the language/accent choices at length, and they clearly made the right decision.

    Myself and my gf just finished watching the whole thing. Thank god for binge watching. I don't know how people could wait a week to watch the next episode.

    This shit was crazy awesome. Really, really well done. Dyatlov was a total wacko. I enjoyed the format of the last episode which went back to the night of the accident to explain everything during the trial.

    Crazy what went on during the whole thing. Well done dramatization of a major moment in human history.

    That was a well done show. Very enjoyable.

    Was Dyatlov really that bad, or was it exaggerated for the show? I haven't listened to the podcast or done any research; I assume some of you have.

    we binged watched it over the weekend and what a great show.

    I watched some brief YT videos explain the technical details but this helped explain the human decisions and errors made that caused the tragic event

    I've been a shift worker for a long time but I was struck by them doing shift change at 12 o'clock. I assume they were working 12hr shifts.

    Is there any benefit to shift change occurring at noon and midnight? I've always done shift change at 6am/pm.

    Just seems like midnight and noon are unusual times.

    It would depend on business needs. I used to do 12 hour shifts and it would go from 7-7

    Such an amazing show. I wish there were more episodes. Anything else out there in a similar vein that someone could watch?

    There have been a few 1-1.5 hour documentaries on the Kursk that have been made, definitely not as long, but interesting and a good way to kill a bit of time
