In the premiere episode of Crossing Jordan, Dr. Jordan Cavanaugh (Jill Hennessy) returns to Boston, location of her family home, her old job (as resident irritant in the medical examiner's office), and the trauma of her mother's unsolved murder, the very case that retired her father (Ken Howard) as a cop.
Jordan imagines her father is still obsessed with her mother's murder.
Both Philly and Crossing Jordan play safe, and with such a concept-by-numbers mentality that it becomes more fun to pick out their references to other shows (conscious or unconscious) than to follow their plots.

 Crossing Jordan | TV Review | Entertainment Weekly
Crossing Jordan has been on hiatus for nearly a year (due in part to star Jill Hennessy's pregnancy), but rather than deal with these fairly reverberant issues, the writers, in one collective, ballsy ''do-over!'' decided to ignore them all.
Its slogan might as well be ''Crossing Jordan -- We're Totally Above Average!'' This season, quirky evildoers abound, from the high school aggro-nerd who thinks he's committed the perfect murder to the unlikely serial husband killer who apparently gets really, really annoyed by messy toothpaste caps.
The show's gotten breezier overall: Jordan, relieved of all that family drama, borders on lighthearted, and Jerry ''Kangaroo Jack'' O'Connell is a surprisingly welcome holdover from last season.

 Movie Info for Crossing Jordan [TV Series] on MSN Movies
A brilliant Boston-based medical examiner, Jordan tended to rub her superiors the wrong way with her feistiness and insubordination, but her expertise and persistence inevitably proved to be indispensable to Beantown's coroner's office.
Acting as Jordan's unofficial leg man was her father, Max (Ken Howard), an ex-cop plagued by memories of his murdered wife and by the scandal that cost him his job.
Created by Tim Kring of Providence fame, the weekly, 60-minute Crossing Jordan was to have made its NBC bow on September 17, 2001, but breaking news events pushed up the series' premiere date to September 24.
