The Knick isn't just a chance for Cinemax to work with Steven Soderbergh and Clive Owen; it's a statement of newfound purpose.August 08, 2014
The Knick is an astonishing new medical drama that has the potential to be one of the year's best and most talked-about shows.August 07, 2014
Though the series boasts fine acting, a fluent script and a star director, it's not much more involving than the average broadcast hospital drama. It's watchable but not must-watchable.August 08, 2014
Overall, The Knick is a sublimely addictive ride for which viewers will want to scrub up.August 07, 2014
It is, as an aesthetic object, outstanding; as a medical drama, satisfying; and, as a piece of art, totally disappointing.August 07, 2014
Getting into The Knick ...will take two or three episodes. But once you check into this particular TV hospital, and stick around for a while, you'll care about the characters, their stories and their amazing new inventions.September 20, 2016
It feels gross when shows like The Knick... ask us to sympathize with characters who engage in behaviors that hurt a hell of a lot of people outside the world of fiction.August 08, 2014
The Knick isn't merely good -- but clinically, historically (even sociologically) interesting.August 08, 2014
The Knick isn't going to be a show for the squeamish. But if you look away too often, you're likely to miss something extraordinary.
