Critics' reviews

"[2nd Season Review]: One of television’s most vital and thrilling dramas, and it builds on last year’s strengths capably in season two"

Maureen Ryan: Variety
"[2nd Season Review]: [It] is more than just a visual tour de force. The writing continues to stand out, and the characters evolve, while the acting remains top-notch."

Tim Goodman: The Hollywood Reporter
"[2nd Season Review]: The way Soderbergh films (...) lends the series a vital immediacy (...) 'The Knick' is a strange tonic. But it gets results."

Richard Lawson: Vanity Fair
"[2nd Season Review]: In the age of subtlety, 'The Knick' continues to be able to tell a compelling story in exciting, broad strokes (...) Gross, excessive and primed to pop. I love it. (…) Rating: ★★★★½ (out of 5)"

Alec Bojalad: Den of Geek
"[2nd Season Review]: 'The Knick' has the authored cogency of a classy British costume drama (...) Big themes such as race, religion, pestilence and death are addressed with gallows humour"

Andrew Collins: The Guardian
"'The Knick' is unusual and very good. It’s a great leap backward in time, yet another ambitious examination of at an important but often overlooked epoch in history."

Alessandra Stanley: The New York Times
"Aided by (...) a driving, anachronistic techno-beat score, 'The Knick' avoids the worst trap of a period piece: It isn't quaint. It's also never dull. (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)"
