The series is a look at the professional and personal lives of Dr. John W. Thackery and the staff at New York's Knickerbocker Hospital, where they try to maintain their reputation for quality care while struggling to keep the doors open.
Getting into The Knick ...will take two or three episodes. But once you check into this particular TV hospital, and stick around for a while, you'll care about the characters, their stories and their amazing new inventions.
Though the series boasts fine acting, a fluent script and a star director, it's not much more involving than the average broadcast hospital drama. It's watchable but not must-watchable.
It feels gross when shows like The Knick... ask us to sympathize with characters who engage in behaviors that hurt a hell of a lot of people outside the world of fiction.
