Talk:The Alienist (TV series)

List of episodes param in {{Infobox television}}

Hey IJBall... I've never seen anyone take out a "#Episodes" anchor from the {{Infobox television}} template |list_episodes= parameter, and I would say that usage is basically standard. I read the docs and it doesn't seem to forbid it, or perhaps the docs need to be tweaked given how common and non-problematic the practice is? It's a convenient link to have if one is scanning the infobox. —Joeyconnick (talk) 02:16, 3 January 2020 (UTC)

The template docs say "If a Wikipedia "List of" article exists for the show's episodes, put its name here. The clear implication of that is that if there's not a separate LoE article, it should be left blank. Especially for short articles, linking to the section using "#Episodes" is basically pointless. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 02:31, 3 January 2020 (UTC)

Outstanding Special Visual Effects in a Supporting Role

This category seems incorrect. Perhaps it's a copy/paste error. I'm not sure what the category should be.

Broadcast- When did Netflix stop carrying show??

Re the article's Broadcast section,

International rights for the series were acquired by Netflix.

.. When in the world did Netflix completely drop this show and stop carrying it?? Production co's lists Paramount but even the Paramount Plus streaming service doesn't carry this show. All this could be included in the article.. Maybe? -From Peter {a.k.a. Vid2vid (talk | contribs)} 18:40, 3 June 2023 (UTC) -From Peter {a.k.a. Vid2vid (talk | contribs)} 18:40, 3 June 2023 (UTC)

Found it!! Either:

1. Stream The Alienist two (2) seasons for free included on Max ((formerly HBO Max)) ; or,
2. Stream on Hulu ..but only with Premium ie if subscriber adds 🔓💲💵 Hulu With Live TV upgrade add-on.

In general, we do not make it the business of Wikipedia to track what could be called "back-end streaming". Only the original Netflix deal is worth mentioning in the article. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 19:03, 3 June 2023 (UTC)
