twfe-95126 Review of The Alienist

The Alienist (2018–2020)

Great series but season 2 might as well be called "Detective Sara Howard Show".

[8/10 · 3 August 2020]

I'm writing this having only seen 5 episodes of the second season but so far the Alienist himself has had little part to play. Instead Fanning's character Sara Howard has taken to the front and, while she does well and the show is still entertaining, it brings me to the question of why is the show even called "The Alienist" anymore? I'm not mad, it's still a good show after all.
