Every HBO Miniseries Ranked Worst To Best
3. Chernobyl (2019)
Chernobyl took the world by storm like no other HBO series in the last ten years. Despite being excellently performed and impressively put together in spite of the tragedy's large scope, Chernobyl's biggest strength lies in its ability to dig into the incompetence of the authorities who let the immeasurable disaster take place.
Chernobyl sports great performances from Stellan Skarsgard, Emily Watson and Jared Harris, and over five episodes explores the build-up and the effects of the Chernobyl disaster in 1986. Captivating, haunting, frustrating - it is all of these things and more, and comes complete with some of the most disturbing and striking imagery ever put to the small screen.
