I am absolutely hooked. Awesome. Everything House wasn't, this show is. And the setting and medical history are extra eye candy for me being in health care.

The sense is that a 3rd season will happen just with new director producer and main star.

Please no spoilers. I'm 6 shows into season 1.

It was pretty much unlike any series on cable (and damned sure unlike anything on network). My wife absolutely loved it. I enjoyed it, but she was really hooked. Stick with it.

That's really disappointing to hear. I'm a big fan and would love to see them finish the series with Soderbergh and Owen.

And S2 is just as good as S1.

It is a good show. I usually skip medical shows, but this was a good one. I think S2 was even better than S1.

I kept noticing the hot little nurse, Lucy Elkins, and finally looked her up. She is played by Eve Hewson, who is Bono's daughter.

I think it's great. Could be the best period piece on TV. It's really intense and emotional, and Owen's character is fantastic.

Some of the "medical gore" is cringe-inducing... but it's a FANTASTIC show.

I saw the first season a while back when it was on HBOGO. I liked it but I don't have Cinemax.

When you begin season 2, I'd suggest listening to the podcast done by the show creators about it. They do one each week for each new episode, with behind the scenes looks into the creation of the show. It's as fascinating as the show.

But, you'll need to watch the show before listening to that week's podcast as they do talk in depth about each episode.

absolutely amazing show. one of the best. idk what their plans are unfortunately moving forward. I know Soderbergh is doing a new show for HBO right now. doesnt exactly bode well for the knick...


eta: did some googling. Soderbergh wants it to be 6 seasons, but they have no clue what the next 2 (they plan in 2s) should be about. so basically its on hold until him and the writers figure out a plan.


There are SPOILERS in the link

Awesome show! The last episode of S2 almost made me sick but it was great. I hope they can work out a season 3.

I've read that they may move on with or without Clive Owen. I read a spoiler-ific article that pretty much summed up S2 finale. But it is still left open to interpretation I guess and vagueness. That's all I'll say to not spoil anything for anyone else.

Just love the damned show. Be a shame to cancel it.

The show is shot wonderfully. It's captures the graphic nature of the medical field and the era, in which it represents. Nurse Elkins is also fun to look at as well.
