"Crossing Jordan" movie

A "sexy, brilliant" Boston medical examiner... Despite a checkered career, Dr. Jordan Cavannaugh goes above and beyond to solve cases.

Crossing Jordan is an American television crime/drama series that aired on NBC. It stars Jill Hennessy as the crime-solving medical examiner, Jordan Cavanaugh. The show uses an ensemble cast approach featuring a group of Jordans co-workers, members of the Boston Medical Examiners Office and police detectives assigned to the various cases. It was created by Tim Kring.

The title references the biblical metaphor of the ancient Hebrews crossing the Jordan River, commonly used in spiritual songs to represent death and passage to the afterlife.During the first two seasons, the series used a gimmick whereby Jordan and her retired-police-detective father (Ken Howard) would role-play the events leading up to that weeks murder, which would be depicted by showing Jordan playing the part of the victim or suspect in a recreation of the scene. (The idea being that such role-playing would allow Jordan to figure out the circumstances of the crime, like a profiler.) This element of the series was mostly dropped when Howard left the series as a regular.On May 14, 2007, the series was cancelled by NBC.TV Series Finale NBC.
