Yeah, awesome episode. Loved the breakthrough with the procedure. The discovery of Edwards' surgery ward was great, I loved how he slowly won Thackery over.

Edwards is a crazy mofo too though. Think he beat the shit out of the dude he bumped into at the bar.

Yes without a doubt. He got bruised up a little but that other guy probably got it twice as bad.

I loved the first four episodes, LOVED IT during a free Cinemax weekend. But alas, do not have Cinemax.

Partly because a lot of people don't have Cinemax and it's on Friday night. I guarantee that if it starts picking up award recognition people will hop on the bandwagon real quick.

It's good but I am not in love with it or anything.

I actually want a show based around the nun and the EMT.

That is so far my least favorite storyline.

Excellent episode. Loved having all the main characters working together. Soderbergh strikes such a perfect mood with this show. I think it's going to be big once word of mouth gets out.

Probably my favorite so far even better than the week before. This show keeps getting better and better and I love that some of the characters that normally don't interact that much did for a few this episode. Thackery looks to be struggling in next weeks show.

I was afraid this was going to be one long mini-series. I'm pretty stoked it's coming back, too. I liked the show from the start, but it very quietly snuck up on me and became my favorite thing on TV right now.

EDIT: And, fuck yeah!, for John Hodgman! I think this guy is terrifically funny, so it was cool to see him in this show.

for those who were interested in this show, the entire first season, all 10 episodes will be airing on Sunday during their DirecTV (and others?) free premium channel weekend.

^ Strange. Not showing up on my guide. Prefer to have these on the DVR than via On Demand. Quality is slightly better.

The Knick (Cinemax) -- Season 2 Thread -- Premieres 10/16/15




As Barrow (Jeremy Bobb) and The Knick prepare to move uptown, Dr. Edwards (André Holland) lobbies the hospital board to be appointed permanent chief of surgery in Dr. Thackery's (Clive Owen) absence. Though his suspension has been lifted, Dr. Gallinger (Eric Johnson) refuses to return as Edwards' subordinate, so he heads to Cromartie Hospital in hopes of getting Thackery to return to work.

Lucy's (Eve Hewson) attempts to make amends with Bertie (Michael Angarano) are rebuffed; Cleary (Chris Sullivan) schemes to make extra money; Ping Wu (Perry Yung) demands regular medical checkups for his prostitutes; Speight (David Fierro) attempts to trace the origins of a new plague; Cornelia (Juliet Rylance) nourishes a quarantined neighborhood in San Francisco.

Written by Jack Amiel & Michael Begler; directed by Steven Soderbergh.

10 episode 2nd season

Steven Soderbergh directed all 10 episodes again.

So I plan to binge the first half of season 2 this weekend since Dish is having a Cinemax free preview. Agree the first ep was rather slow - am currently watching ep 2 and I like where they're going. Love that they kept much of the tone and style from season 1 unchanged.
