Great Chemistry

Dark and absorbing. Love the cast working together in this show. Especially good for the chemists among us is that (for the most part) the science is also spot on! Thanks for showing the magic that chemistry in an entertaining way.

Out of curiosity tbrubaker, was there any chemistry that struck you as odd or off in the first season? I've heard mixed reviews, but generally people seem to think it was pretty spot-on...

Puzzled a bit about the alternative synthesis of methamphetamine isolating more a kg of precurser out of that small furnace reactor and the fireball from the fulminous Hg detonation was surely overdone. Several technical and apparatus details are also left out of the syntheses (for good reason). But for the most part they seem to be trying to remain real.
