7/10

These episodes are fairly well done in my opinion. I found that my interest in them varied according to how interested I was in the particular disaster. Fro example, I have seen and read a bit about Chernobyl, so the different perspective and portrayals were appreciated. I feel they did a good job with the special effects of recreating event, and the acting was adequate for this type of drama/documentary.
