I m not going to mention the story, but is worth viewing for its atmospheric recreation of 1890s New York City aka The Gilded Age. The series are the most expensive series in TNT's history. Production designer Ruth Ammon, who’s responsible for the “overall look and visual arc of the season.” About how she and her international art team turned Budapest into vintage NYC, It’s really inspirating. Sets like Siegel Cooper Department Store, Greenwich Village, Newspaper Row, existing Broadway set etc… are exceptionally nice!!

I m always interested in historical, great setting dramas, The Alienist series are definitely one of my picks.
