Watch Crossing Jordan Online - Full Episodes

Crossing Jordan is a television drama about a brainy forensic pathologist named Dr. Jordan Cavanaugh. Jordan worked for many years in the medical examiner's office in Boston. She became passionately involved in trying to solve murders, and she began to cross professional boundaries by trying to help people. Jordan ends up getting fired and is forced to participate in court-ordered anger management classes. However, she is such a brilliant scientist that she ends up getting her old job back, where she quickly picks up her old passion for solving mysteries.

Jordan got her start in the field of forensic psychology by her father, who worked as a police detective for many years. He is retired now and often helps Jordan work on cases by reenacting what they think possibly happened. They play a game where Jordan pretends that she is the victim, and her father pretends that he is the murderer. They use this method to see if they can figure out what the murderer was thinking.

Jordan also works closely with police detectives and a good ensemble of co-workers to help her solve mysteries. Jordan is famous in the police community for standing up to many authority figures to ensure that cases are solved and processed ethically. Jordan clashes with her boss on numerous occasions but he tolerates her because she is so good at solving mysteries. Jordan's co-worker is a faithful friend to Jordan and even has a crush on their boss leading to some drama. Jordan is also assisted by two fellow scientists, Nigel and Bug. Bug provides a lot of comic relief while Nigel is the much more reticent of the pair. Much of Jordan's desire to solve crimes derive from the fact that her mother was murdered many years ago and the crime was never solved. She has been through so much drama and pain in her personal life that she ends up bringing it into the office. The combination of her past pain and brilliant mind lead to a passion for her job.
