The fact that it’s doing as well as say, Amy Adam’s Sharp Objects HBO miniseries is actually kind of impressive. Viewers have rated Chernobyl the highest scored television series in history, according to over a hundred thousand votes on IMDB. But now Chernobyl has more than doubled its number of votes from before, and kept its exact same high score. Chernobyl (9.7 – 111,000 votes) Planet Earth II (9.5 – 71,000 votes) Band of Brothers (9.5 – 317,000 votes) Planet Earth (9.4 – 147,000 votes) Breaking Bad (9.4 – 1,200,000 votes) Game of Thrones (9.4, 1,500,000 votes) Our Planet (9.4 – 10,000 votes) The Wire (9.3 – 244,000 votes) Cosmos (9.3 – 95,000 votes) Blue Planet (9.3 – 19,000 votes)As for critical opinion? In that land of TV, that’s a bit harder to quantify.
