Did anyone catch this on Monday?

Talk about true horror. Nothing is more horrifying than knowing you're going to die from high doses of radiation exposure.

Very impressed so far... looks top notch across the board. Excited to see the rest of the series.

I caught it too, writing is top notch, especially given it from a comedy writer.

I think Jeff and Shawn wrote one for this. I read it. I remember a typo on page 36 that Jeff got upset about.  ;)

I remember that script. It looked interesting, what I saw of it. Don't think they made it public for reading on SS??  Jeff and Shawn, I mean...

Horror, genre, it was. (Obviously).    ;D

It's insane that the dude who wrote Scary Movie 3 and 4 also wrote this. I am trying to figure out a way to watch in Australia.

Chernoby is in my opinion the best TV show I�ve seen in a very very long time. Extremely well done and what makes it so gripping and horrifying is that it�s real! I remember it well. I was in Sweden just a couple of months later and the threat was real. People were told don�t drink milk. Don�t feed babies this and that. Don�t eat reindeer meat and on and on. It was scary times. I think Mazin did a really amazing job writing it!
