Updated on 2020-07-17 By Dennis Restauro

The Alienist

Season 2 of TNT’s late-19th century crime drama, Carr’s The Alienist: The Angel of Darkness, is back. The first two Episodes air Sunday, July 19th starting at 9 pm ET. TNT will then show two episodes every Sunday with the final two episodes airing on August 9th, rounding out the 8 episode season.

Watching The Alienist Season 2 Online

If you don’t have Cable TV, you can still see the Alienist season by watching TNT online using any of the services below:

Hulu Live TV – Offers TNT, local channels, and a ton of other channels and features. Hulu supports Roku, Fire TV Devices, Apple TV, Chromecast, Xbox One, iOS, Android, and more. You can try the service free for 7-days.

Sling TV – Live TNT is a part of both their “Blue” and “Orange” package. You can try it free for 7-days. Sling TV supports Roku, Fire TV, and many more streaming devices. See our review of Sling TV for more information

DIRECTV STREAM Now – Offers 45+ channels, including TNT. There is a free trial. This service costs $55 per month. DIRECTV STREAM Now supports several streaming devices, see our review of DIRECTV STREAM for details.

YouTube TV – Last but not least, you can watch TNT on YouTube TV, but this service is the most expensive at $65 per month. They support most modern streaming devices. See our review of YouTube TV for more information.

Once you subscribe to one of these services, you can watch The Alienist as it airs on TNT. While each of these services allows you to watch on the web, you can watch on your TV using a supported smart TV or streaming device like Roku or Amazon Fire TV Stick. While each service has slightly different requirements for minimum internet speed, anyone with a connection of at least 5-10 Mbps should be able to watch without issue.

Each of these services includes a cloud DVR, so you can record the Alienist and never miss an episode. If you still have cable and are looking for a way to save money, check out our quick start guide to cut the cord on cable TV.
