I was with some friends, talking about TV shows. The guys were saying how good Chernobyl was, but women were saying it’s too depressing, and they’d rather watch trash TV like Love Island. So to compromise I said they should make a series called Three Mile Love Island. That might be one of my best jokes ever
I don’t get it. Care to explain, please? Is three mile a reference to Chernobyl?
It was a different nuclear disaster in America. Not as bad as Chernobyl
