KoiceReloaded:

Chernobyl is special. There is this dark ambience about it that gives one a weird feeling of being a fly on the wall, a reluctant witness to a bleak history.

It's an historical show that is primarily driven by dialogue and characterization, furthered by the glorious attention to details. From the radioactive blue fumes emanating from the wrecked graphite tower, to the ignorance of parents playing with their children on a bridge at close proximity to the wrecked nuclear plant, to birds randomly dying on the streets of Pripyat a few miles away... it's a dark, bleak, unapologetic and unrelenting expository history on the incompetent and denial culture of the Soviet Union, whereby a global image was valued over the lives of the common citizenry.

Chernobyl resonated with me on an emotional level. I felt for the thousands of poor souls that died from the nuclear radiation fallout, for the brave firemen that were the first on the scene, and thus some of the first casualties, for the brave volunteers that all but sacrificed their lives, draining water from and building over the irradiated tower, for the brave Russian physicists that successfully fought a government on denial, at the detriment of their own health and lives, etc. Chernobyl is a tale about courage, determination, and perseverance in the face of adversity and sheer incompetence. It's uplifting as much as it is depressing. Suffice to say, it's not something to forget in a hurry after watching.

If you fail to see and feel all these, then the show is simply not for you... and it is okay. Not everyone is at the same emotive and intuitive level, after all.
Lol. This koice na bad guy

Just see as your epistle depict chernobyl as if its one kind really awesome masterpiece. I still maintain its sentimentally overhyped i guess due to the history attached to it. Take away the history then there isnt much to chernobyl its just a normal series. The whole storyline is just there nothing special even the deaths weren't even that horrible nor severe according to the Chernobyl series not the historical account. Maybe few occasions though; like those fire men on their death bed, aside that it felt like they downplayed the death considering the numbers the professor was churning out as likely casualty

Anyways like you said the show is simply not for me. Although that statement come be like say you wan emotionally blackmail ppl wey no like the show. Lol

Anyways i get your point. Its allowed to have different views. That's the spice of life

You guys don't get it though.

People aren't really scared of Dortmund or Inter.

8 times out of 10 Barca will beat them both, bringing our A-game.

But it's only the first round of the Champions league and it shouldn't be exhaustive like that.
Inter and Dortmund are top teams too.

Some might believe it brings out the best in the team but I would disagree. There are already many teams in la liga to make us at top level (El Classico, Athletico, Sevilla and co.)

Abeg we need the easiest of draws in the group stages abeg!

Matches too plenty.
Lol. But bro

There's no turning back anymore

Seems African presidents are so jobless that any Tom Dick and Hiroshima can gather them together and give them lecture whenever they feel like.
Looking forward to when Africa will rise.

The "Amerikan Dream" is a mirage.

You have to be asleep & braindead to experience the "Amerikan Dream" - and that is why it is called "Dream". grin

Go to cities like Flint, Michigan; Camden, New Jersey & South side, Chicago, you will see people living in "Amerikan Nightmare". grin

62% (if not more) of all Amerikans have less than 1,000 dollars in their savings accounts and the Amerikan healthcare system is ranked 37th "best" in the world by the WHO. grin

One out of every eight children in Amerika live on food stamps.

To put it succinctly - The "Amerikan Dream" died along with JFK. grin

Don't ever be fooled. I would rather spend the rest of my entire life in Nigeria than visit that terrorist land of LGBT, Bestiality & Oppression. grin
Lol. You sure about that bro

Anyways there's no place like home. Despite lack of basic amenities, insecurities and all. You will always feel more comfortable in your country no matter what. Although it depends

That's why we need to develop our very own communities. We all need to contribute positively one way or the other

We are really behind

Common 24hours electricity that is qttainable in many small countries in europe, asia and even south america

Is rocket science in nigeria.. In 2019 embarassed

US of A. The american dream. Them wan stop people from dreaming and coming to there country. cheesy
Well i can't blame them sha. I blame we Africans especially Nigerians. When are we going to develop our land. How long do we continue to make a fool of ourselves ?. Why are we so self centered. One you get power you think only about yourself and your family. We black folks especially Nigerians need to sit up. We need to advance we need technology and basic amenities we need accountability and justice. How long do we continue to be savages. Why is the average white man or even other race more reasonable than us. Nawa o. We dont really have much reason to be actually proud of ourselves as the black race. We seem to be behind. Even the latinos are gradually overtaking us

With that said i think there are close to 8 countries i had rather stay than the US.

Only thing i fancy US is there high population of black citizens but still yet racism and gun violence still thrives there

So i think i will pass for now.

Canada, australia, Netherlands,germany, norway, finland , switzerland, singapore, denmark etc go well for me. Only problem be say as a black man one way or the other you will never actually feel at home

That's why we need to develop our country. So when they see you in their country they wouldn't look down on you as if you were from a jungle in Africa

In order to appreciate the efforts of the makers you need to have prior knowledge of the incident before the series, try watching documentaries on the disaster, just like a tv series on Hiroshima would equally be appreciated.
Okay bro

Now i get it. Its just sentimental hype due to its historic relevance


Bro Pls do you know where i can download The Broadwalk Empire

I hope I'm not the only one that thinks Chernobyl is overrated ?

Its nice no doubt but what i don't understand is why its highly rated?. See sharp ratings everywhere yet nothing spectacular. Its just there

Abi is there something i missed or abi season 2 dey

Koicereloaded how comes chernobyl is in your all time top 10 yet an awesome series like Billions isn't. Well its your choice bro. But na especially your list make me rush chernobyl

But i really want to know what's unique about this Chernobyl. Maybe i no just grasp the series well or something

If not for useless Nigerian government. Wey they tolerate this nonsese attack on her citizens. Naija is really a shameless country to tolerate this hogwash from this bitch ass faggish south Africa wey no get levels.

Fg suppose sanctions those inbred hiv savages.
Imagine stupid idiots we saved during apartheid

Motherfuckers. Keep me with two normal south african men my size and i had most likely beat the shit out of both em.

Why attack a foreigner because of the crime of another. Attack someone because of someone he probably doesn't even know exist . Such barbaric black south africans no wonder dem look herdsmen. Lazy shop lifters looting innocent foreigners doing legitimate business. Let your law enforcement officers apprehend the criminals and leave innocent people alone.

Only thing saving those stinking idiots is the caucasian south africans in their country

Those South African blacks have PhD in shop looto-crazy, they look for slightest opportunity to loot shops belonging to not only foreigners but indigenes as well. I saw a video not long ago where a van conveying grocery supplies broke down in the middle of the road. The driver left the vehicle to get help, right there they came out in their dozens packing the packets of supplies from the back of the van and running away. A very pathetic sight to watch. They boast that their country is rich and even low income people are living well so why steal? I just wish our people can stop running to that country.
Black south africans are lazy

If not for the white man in their country their done finish

Only thing they know how to do is occupy space, reproduce and spread hiv

They always love to use crimes of foreigners as excuse to carry out xenophobic acts whereas they main reason is jealousy and to loot every lootables.

Be careful what you wish for.

I want the easiest group possible.


Maybe the best way to win the champions league is that from the quarter finals we must not win any first leg match by more than 1 - 0.

We must avoid winning 4-1 or 3-0.

One goal margin "is do"

Either easy or hard

I hope you know that you are very stupid.

Always talking trash. So because of those selling drugs innocent business people should suffer.

Idiot. Whats now the essence of the police. Let them arrest and prosecute the dealers

Besides who are the consumers that enable market for this drug dealers are they not south africans
And this lazy ass hiv infested black south africans are just after what they can loot from legitmate business . So they there dey talk rubbish trying to defend them.

For your information the person who killed the south African is a tanzanian. Yet this bastard xenophobic cunts are targetting very single foreigner.
If not for the white man in south africa. That coutry would have been a dead zone.


I wonder why most of u bearing ednut no just get sense. See as this one indirectly absolve those savages and shift blame to foreigners especially his country people. Agbaya
