The series is fairly compelling in its descriptions and in most cases actual video of the incidents or their aftermath. Some of the incidents are very well known, some though i had not heard of or I only had a cursory knowledge of.

Also I find it interesting to know the causes, mistakes or oversights that may have caused them.

Not sure what i think about the talking head experts that appear across the various incidents and episodes they are well spoken and clear and concise with their explanations but not sure about their actual areas of expertise or knowledge of the actual disasters.

The incident specific experts are probably better qualified to describe the events and causes, but for the most part they are not as polished as the series regular talking heads.

I watched the second season of this series first and I found it more compelling than the first season, the formula is essentially the same but I think the big difference is the engineering mistakes of the first season are less compelling, there is more footage of the actual incidents in the second season. Added to these factors is that there were more similar incidents in the first season and the repetition was less interesting.
