The Alienist wishes to balance the quaintness of a period drama with the verve of modern procedurals like the aforementioned Hannibal and Criminal Minds, but it all comes across as too familiar to be entirely exciting.
January 23, 2018
The Alienist is perfect for those who find Criminal Minds too light-hearted.
January 22, 2018
Serial killers are always intriguing because they feel so alien, but The Alienist can't will itself to be anything more than an R-rated update.
January 23, 2018
Dark, very bloody period drama explores a murder mystery.
January 22, 2018
What must have come to life in the pages of the book struggles to find so much as a spark on the screen -- difficult, admittedly, through the pall of smoke and shadows that tend to choke it.
January 23, 2018
The Alienist is a murder-by-numbers potboiler that retreads familiar territory -- and is trying a little too hard to gross us out -- but it still manages to hold our attention thanks to its lavish production design and charismatic cast.
January 18, 2018
The Alienist spends more time telling you what's going on beneath the surface than allowing for any real depth to emerge.
January 22, 2018
It's a lushly rendered, gritty tale with the kind of nudity, gore and explicit themes often seen in today's quality TV shows. But it's still a largely predictable story.
January 23, 2018
The result is a series that has all of the brooding intensity of Fukunaga's HBO show, but little of the necessary narrative energy to pull it off.

... somewhat unique in setting but same old/same old in terms of the overall genre.
