I've got one episode to go and I'm really enjoying it. It does a really great job of hammering home just how terrifyingly destructive radiation is.
It's also a really effective at being simultaneously condemning of Soviet communism (and rightly so), and sympathetic to the the resilience and determination of the Soviet people (ditto).
Visually, it really captures the Brutalist aesthetic of Soviet architecture and design, and the authenticity of the Soviet-era uniforms, weapons, and vehicles is really impressive to someone who, like myself, grew up on the Hollywood kit-bashed "Soviet" AFVs and Hinds of Red Dawn and Rambo III.
