A Long Way From Quincy M.E.
Jordan Cavanaugh works for the Boston Medical Examiner's Office. Well, she does now anyway - this is her most recent job. You see, Jordan has some "issues" with anger management. She left her last job and her cheating ex-husband in California and moved home to Boston. Back to her dad's house and to the M.E.'s office she had left in anger years before. Somehow, she manages to charm and bully her way through situations in a way that others can only dream of pulling off. (I think I want to be Jordan if I grow up.)

"Crossing Jordan" At A Glance
Crossing Jordan is an American television crime/drama series that aired on NBC from September 24 2001 to May 16 2007. It stars Jill Hennessy as the crime-solving medical examiner, Jordan Cavanaugh. The show uses an ensemble cast approach featuring a group of Jordan's co-workers, members of the Boston Medical Examiner's Office and police detectives assigned to the various cases. It was created by Tim Kring. The title refers to the biblical metaphor of the ancient Hebrews crossing the Jordan River, commonly used in spiritual songs to represent death and passage to the afterlife.

Jordan Cavanaugh's Co-Workers
- Dr. Garret Macy (Miguel Ferrer), Jordan's boss. Macy must deal with Jordan's erratic behavior as well as his confused family (he has a teenage daughter, Abby, but is divorced from his wife) and his own personal demons (Macy is an alcoholic). Garret has an affinity for jazz. He's been known to have had romantic entanglements with grief counselor Lily Lebowski, ADA Renee Walcott, Charlie Davis, and, obviously, his one-time wife, Maggie Warner. Garret has recently admitted to a drinking problem, after finding out his daughter, Abby, had become addicted to heroin upon dropping out of college and becoming involved with a heroin dealer.
- Mahesh "Bug" Vijayaraghavensatanaryanamurthy (Ravi Kapoor), a brilliant but shy forensic entomologist from Liverpool. He has feelings for Lily which, until the final episode of Season 5, were not reciprocated. In the beginning of Season 6, with the cancellation of Lily's wedding, his relationship with Lily is beginning to move forward. However, things may be complicated by Lily's unexpected pregnancy with her once to be husband, Jeffery. Bug has since taken it upon himself to make Lilly move in with him and support her and the baby.
- Lily Lebowski (Kathryn Hahn) the good-hearted grief counselor working in the medical examiner's office. Lily and Garret used to be romantically involved, but their developing relationship ended when Garret went back to his ex-wife for a brief period. Lily and Garret remained friends ever since. Bug thought Lily was adopted because her blood type differed from that of her newly-deceased mother. Garret recently revealed that the woman Lily thought to be her mother was really her aunt. In "Mysterious Ways", she tendered her resignation and accepted her boyfriend's marriage proposal. She eventually cancelled the wedding. Lily has recently received the surprising news that she is pregnant with Jeffery's baby. It is unknown whether this will complicate her blossoming relationship with Bug. In the end of season 6, she moved in with Bug, after he had taken it upon himself that he wanted her and the baby to live with him.
- Nigel Townsend (Steve Valentine), a wise-cracking British criminologist of ambiguous sexual orientation often known for his dry humor and his knowledge of everything from coffee to textiles. Nigel ran away from the Royal Navy, where he was a counter-intelligence officer. Nigel is sometimes thought to have feelings for Jordan, because of his willingness to do whatever she asks despite the possibility of his losing his job as a consequence. He was also not on speaking terms with his father, who still lives in England, until some time before the episode "Murder in the Rue Morgue", in which he mentioned to Jordan that he was glad that he and his father are back in touch and that he regrets having had no contact with him for so long. Relations with his father continue to be very rocky, however.
- Detective Woody Hoyt (Jerry O'Connell) (Seasons 1-3 recurring, 4-6 regular) , a police detective from Wisconsin who often works with Jordan on her cases. Woody is also known to harbor romantic feelings for Jordan, who resists, preferring friendship because she believes it to be safer. However, on Jordan's birthday ("Embraceable You", Season 4), Woody gave her a diamond ring, a gesture that, according to Nigel, shows that Woody wants more from their relationship, but Jordan declined the ring. Premiered in the episode "Wrong Place, Wrong Time", he became a regular in Season 4. On the final episode of Season 4 ("Jump Push Fall"), Woody was shot by a cop killer and nearly died in the hospital, an event that prompted Jordan to confess her love for him when it was uncertain whether he would survive. Many fans considered this a big step in the right direction for their relationship, but a recovering Woody turned her down, believing her declaration of romantic feelings to be motivated by pity for his condition. When a case took him to Las Vegas, he started a flirtatious relationship with Sam Marquez (from sibling TV series Las Vegas), which is still going on; although he was never seen he was apparently invited by Sam to Delinda Deline's wedding.
