The Knick - come for the horrifyingly botched surgery, but stay for the unspeakably racist doctors! Go to Full Review Steve Macfarlane Slant Magazine 10/07/2015

The list of ways "Mr. Paris Shoes" diverges from the average antihero drama begins in that opening scene, which cross-cuts between Cornelia and Dr. Edwards preparing for the day. Go to Full Review Kevin Yeoman Screen Rant 10/08/2015
It's a satisfying second episode that plays off the premiere's set-up quite well, while also demonstrating where the series' storytelling strengths are. Unsurprisingly, the majority of those strengths are evident through Soderbergh's meticulous eye. Go to Full Review Robert Ham Paste Magazine 10/07/2015
9.1/10
