Great job on the show, mister director. I liked your movie Schizopolis and this is citizen kane.

Definitely an underrated show. I thoroughly enjoyed this show very much. If you're a Soderberg fan, then of course you should check it out.

It makes me sad that this wonderful series didn't make it to at least the third season, because it was so well written and acted. I love any show that takes place in the past, but the subject matter of this show is fascinating. Set in NYC at the turn of the 20th Century, doctors & nurses struggle to aid the sick at the Knickerbocker Hospital (The Knick). I loved how this show was not afraid to tackle subjects that we still wrestle with today...racism, sexism, governmental corruption, abortion, just to name a few. The characters are well rounded and you care for them. With the battle the hospital staff must wage on behalf of their patients with the medicine & equipment of that era, it makes you grateful for modern medical practices.
