‘The Knick’ Is the Perfect Historical Drama for ‘The Pitt’ Fans
If you’re loving HBO’s The Pitt, you’re on the right track with The Knick. Honestly, if you’ve finished The Pitt and need something similar, this is a great place to turn. What The Knick does differently – and I think better, in some ways – is give the characters room to breathe. While The Pitt keeps things tightly focused on a single ER shift per season, The Knick sprawls out over a larger timeframe, and we get to see what these people are like outside the hospital walls. Plus, Steven Soderbergh directed every single episode, which really gives it a consistent vision. It allows for deeper character development, letting you really get to know who these people are beyond their professional lives.
