The Alienist never quite joined the ranks of The Americans or even Boardwalk Empire as a “great” period drama series, and Angel of Darkness doesn’t really see the show making that leap in quality. But sometimes all you want is a really compelling murder mystery with high production value and compelling characters, and in that way The Alienist: Angel of Darkness delivers.

If Fanning's relative stiffness was excusable in "The Alienist" owing to the idea that Sara's confidence in her intellect was new and constantly being assaulted in this man's world, here she's calcified her emotions. Brühl's Kreizler feels even stiffer, to the point of making Ted Levine's still-crooked Thomas Byrnes, the former police chief, achieve Snidely Whiplash levels of hamminess. He's only one character among a bevy of side players who come off as cartoonishly two-dimensional which is good news for Evans, who comes off OK in the midst of this.

SLightly disappointing second season. While the characters have evolved it's a shame the story hasn't.

Season 2 was really disappointing. It felt like the producers awarded the task of writing the script to the winners of a high-school writing contest. Also, and unlike Season 1, it dragged. They could have told the story in at least 2 fewer episodes.

Started to have a descent storyline then it took a twisted dive with the breast milk. I expected more......

Wow what a huge failing. Angel of Darkness is a rich textured story. Carr switches and uses Stevie Taggart as the book's narrator and we don't even see Stevie other than a cameo. The plot has been destroyed. I have never seen a worse adaptation. 1 point for the sets and CGI of old New York.
