To promote season two of its turn-of-the-century crime drama, The Alienist, TNT partnered with several organizations whose legacies reach all the way back to the show’s setting of 1897 Manhattan in the Gilded Age.
One of the trio’s frequent haunts in the series is Delmonico’s Steakhouse in the Financial District, which opened in 1837. The restaurant still exists today, even though it’s been closed for indoor dining since quarantine due to coronavirus started in March.
To commemorate the season two premiere, TNT is giving back to the city that inspired the hit series. New York City, like many others, was hugely impacted by COVID-19, and TNT is thanking those fighting on the frontlines to keep its residents healthy as well as giving to those who have been affected.
With the help of local partner Feed the Frontlines NYC, the meal deliveries featured a special three-course menu including select items that appeared on the show. The signature dishes include the classic BLT wedge salad, original Delmonico’s steak and rice pudding cake.
To celebrate the award-winning costumes of The Alienist, TNT joined forces with the iconic luxury institution, Bergdorf Goodman, to create a curated selection of merchandise inspired by the show’s costume design. Fans nationwide can immerse themselves in the series by shopping the merchandise online, and local New Yorkers can visit the flagship store to see a custom “The Alienist: Angel of Darkness” themed window display.
