Body of Proof in good hands

The new ABC medical/detective drama Body of Proof is a well put together family version of all the CSI forensic investigative shows on television, melding together the work life of Megan Hunt Medical Examiner (Dana Delany) with her complicated family life.

The personality of the Hunt character itself though is very much Gregory House like in that she far more knowledgeable than her colleagues and arrogant, often very abrasive with those around her, particularly the detectives she works with. She is partnered with a former cop turned medical investigator in a relationship that is reminiscent of Brennan and Booth on Bones. The Peter Dunlop (Nicholas Bishop) will undoubtedly be caught in an insinuated love triangle with Hunt and her supervisor Kate Murphey (Jeri Ryan) as the show develops.
