17 Shows To Binge-Watch Before They Return This Fall
11. The Knick
Cinemax, the sister channel of HBO, isnt quite the established big hitter in the TV world that its sibling is, more well-known for showing movies, but it has quietly established a couple of strong shows, such as Alan Balls Banshee, and medical drama The Knick.
With a large amount of such medical shows on television, what is it that really makes The Knick stand out from the crowd? Four words: Steven. Soderbergh. Clive. Owen.
When Soderbergh announced in 2013 his intention to step away from making feature films there were worries about him not directing again, but soon after he announced hed be behind the camera for the 10-part series The Knick, with Owen on board to star.
Detailing life at a fictionalised version of the real Knickerbocker Hospital in New York, it contained plenty of gore and wasnt exactly a happy drama, but possessed all the cinematic quality youd expect given those involved. Season 2 will air this fall, so you can catch up just in the knick of time
