    Is the show in Russian with English subtitles? Or is there a full English version?

    Any suggestions on where I can find a way to watch the show in decent quality? I don't have cable, so I use Netflix and I also have Shaw FreeRange TV (I use from my parents cable) so I can cast from my PC -> Chromecast on my TV Some shows, but still can't find the series. Found a few torrents but they're all in full Russian - no subtitles lol.

    Show is 100% in English with the occasional Russian subtitle.

    It's available on FreeRange.

    Edit: opps, only if your parents are subscribed to Crave/HBO etc through Shaw.

    I think it depends on your Shaw cable subscription.

    From my parents account with only basic channels, we couldn't watch it but we could with my sisters with premium channels enabled.

    Regarding the language, my wife also said "why don't they speak Russian or English with a Russian accent, it would be more authentic."
    Just get her to watch 'The Hunt for Red October' and that should answer that.

    Good stuff, thanks. There is a video of the helicopter crash. It's still hard to believe what went on at the time.
    I heard the video they used in the episode was the actual footage.

    It was not - the one in the show was done in the same quality as the rest of the episode and was slightly different.

    Episode 5 explains their reasoning too. You guys really gotta check out the podcast. Like 90% of the stuff they show has some level of truth to it. The creator/writer even mentions one of the three head guys of the plant, Fomin, had no formal chemical/nuclear background. He essentially got his degree through a mail order process as he climbed the ranks.

    Yay for Socialism! lol. What do you mean by explaining their reasoning? You just mean because the head guy thought there was a trip button? Even with that available, I still don't understand how he could keep thinking everyone was crazy, when more and more guys are coming back with severe radiation injuries? As a guy who was a control board operator, it is just insane to see the way they responded to this. They were more concerned with curbing hysteria, than they were with even finding out if there was anything to be hysteric about.

    You guys tricked me, someone mentioned it being a documentary, so I never really pursued watching it. Then the wife and I had nothing to watch and it came across the screen. We both heard it was good and started watching. WOW!! So good. Gave a lot of insight into something I would've been too young to remember at 4 years old.

    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's not a capitalist economy. Most likely they had 3, 8 hour shifts per day. So your shift changes would be 8am, 4pm, and midnight.




    For anyone still looking where to watch this. I cannot imagine it isn't on Piratebay yet.
