Crossing JordanCrossing Jordan is an American television crime series that airs on NBC. It stars Jill Hennessy as a crime-solving medical examiner. The show uses an ensemble cast approach featuring a group of Jordan's co-workers and police detectives assigned to the various cases. Main Characters - Dr. Jordan Cavanaugh (Jill Hennessy), a young, attractive coroner (medical examiner) from Boston who solves crimes during the course of her investigations. Jordan is emotionally scarred due to her mother's murder when she was a child in the 1970s.
- Max Cavanaugh (Ken Howard), Jordan's father and an ex-cop. He owns a bar, where he can often be found bartending. When not working, he often helps Jordan solve murders by role-playing murder scenarios with his daughter, a tradition that started early in Jordan's life.
- Dr. Garret Macy (Miguel Ferrer), Jordan's boss. Macy must deal with her erratic behavior as well as his confused family and his own personal demons.
Supporting Cast Show Information Crossing Jordan premiered in 2001 on NBC. The scientific aspects of the show are comparable to but come with a rock and roll sensibility owing to Jordan's psychological Sturm und Drang. The show was put on hiatus for the 2003-2004 season due to Hennessy's real-life pregnancy, but returned to the airwaves on March 9, 2004. The previous cliff-hanger plotline was dropped in a new episode which featured a humorous sub-plot which paid homage to Alfred Hitchcock's 1954 film Rear Window. The murder victim's name was even Alex Corvald--a reference to Thovald of the film. The first episode of the 2005 season is scheduled for January 30. External links
