I just watched the third episode. Easily one of the best-executed, most emotionally compelling episodes of television that I've ever seen.

The Ukrainian minister of defense is expected to be sacked next week as part of the ongoing anti-corruption measures: Media: Zelensky to dismiss Defense Minister Reznikov, intelligence chief seen as likely successor (Kyiv Independent) Uhhhhh...excuse me? If the Ukrainian defense minister is being sacked from that post ostensibly for corruption, why on Earth would Zelensky then turn around and appoint him to the newly-created post of Justice Minister?!?
