blessingx Posted August 8, 2014 Report Share Posted August 8, 2014 Anyone else excited? "The Knick" stars Clive Owen as Dr. John Thackery, an ambitious surgeon who leads the staff at the Knickerbocker Hospital in New York in the early 1900s. http://youtu.be/r_xvw-_YJSo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mister X Posted August 9, 2014 Report Share Posted August 9, 2014 I wasn't sure I was going to like it (not a fan of Clive Owen) but was disappointed when it ended. Looking forward to the next episode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blessingx Posted August 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2014 The New Yorker review wasn't great... Haven't read, but the ones I have that focused on the first couple episodes have been respectively disappointed. The often trustworthy David Bianculli says stick with it - http://www.npr.org/2014/08/07/338603595/stick-with-the-knick-a-medical-drama-with-amazing-inventions?utm_medium=RSS&utm_campaign=theo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blessingx Posted August 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2014 (edited) Just finished. I'm caught. Certainly curious where it's headed, but what did everyone think of the soundtrack choices?https://soundcloud.com/milanrecords/cliff-martinez-son-of-placenta-previa-from-the-knick-ost Edited August 10, 2014 by blessingx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sherwood Posted August 18, 2014 Report Share Posted August 18, 2014 This is progressing wonderfully. I'm getting a strong "Young Doctor's Notebook" vibe from the cocaine addiction, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mister X Posted December 20, 2015 Report Share Posted December 20, 2015 Caught the last three episodes from season 2 on on demand earlier. Think will go watch the finale again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
