Mixed
I liked the first two seasons, which I started watching because I have been attracted to Dana Delaney ever since "China Beach". The incredibly beautiful and talented Jeri Ryan's appearance as Kate Murphy was another plus because, as 7 of 9, she almost single-handedly rescued "Star Trek: Voyager" from mediocrity, but in the third season Delaney's Megan Hunt has somehow morphed into a much more poisonous and disagreeable character than she was before, making her less easy to like or care about. Ryan/Kate's totally out-of-character (and somehow ridiculous) one night stand - much too gratuitously and graphically filmed - with the mysterious Ukrainian assassin/rescuing hero Sergei (Ivan Sergei) is jarring, but then I'm not one of those who enjoys being made into a bedroom, peeping-tom voyeur. I suppose such scenes are thrown in to pump up the ratings because that's what the viewing public wants, but they have the opposite effect on me, and it disappoints me that otherwise great actors are willing to participate in them - on sets full of film crew personnel. Such scenes aren't exciting - they're numbing and desensitizing and promote casual, meaningless sex as if they were advertising Happy Meals. With nothing left to the imagination, no imagination is any longer required - and all this stuff is available on prime time TV. Hard to believe the world was once shocked when Rhett Butler said to Scarlett O'Hara in "Gone With The Wind", "Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn". Of course that was 1939, but I can't honestly describe what we're routinely seeing more and more of today as "progress". Windell Middlebrooks as Curtis is - I hate to say it - an almost stereotypical joke that comes close to being racist by making him seem too much like Lincoln Perry's character portrayal of the bumbling and stupid Stepin Fetchit from the 1930's. Geoffrey Arend as Ethan Gross is, to put it as kindly as possible, a witless, obnoxious jerk of very low intellectual candle power. The scripts are, for the most part, quite good and entertaining. The characters - like Megan's usually exasperating mother (Joanna Cassidy) - are, however, occasionally and sometimes always a bit problematic.

Loved it!
I have just recently received my order of Series 3 and I have to say I have enjoyed it just as much as the previous 2 series. I thought with all the changes to the cast that the show would lack something, but it is still great! The stories "get you interested" which is something that a lot of shows don't do these days. The return of some characters from earlier seasons is good also as it gives a bit of continuity.Here in Australia, commercial tv has only ever screened series 1 so to be able to continue watching an actor like Dana Delaney is a joy!

Give it a try - one episode at least
I found this entire series - starring Dana Delaney as a childishly rebellious while extremely talented (a somewhat standardized female character - which I find unfortunate) medical examiner in her confrontations with the traditionally unimaginative, politically motivated authorities - greatly amusing/entertaining. Formulaic, but rescued by the talents of Ms. Delaney and by the surprisingly cast Jeri Ryan - a much better actor than I had realized. I suggest you watch at least one episode to see how you like it, you just might.

Dana DeLaney at her best & Jeri Ryan is great too
Great entertainment, writing and acting are top notch,This show is very smart. It's funny, dramatic, and has enough forensic "stuff" to keep everyone interested but not too grossed out. The characters are engaging--Dana Delany as Dr. Megan Hunt is humorously inept in life, but perfectly charming in her professional career as a medical examiner while Jeri Ryan as Dr. Kate Murphy is the coolest and hottest boss around! The supporting characters/actors also keep the show moving and interesting. The episodes just get better and better as more of each character's back-story comes out.

Another great year
Love this series. It gets better but the only thing I find a draw back to is the fact that the new character (he is with the police department) spends most of his time running around with the ME and she is present in situations that an ME would not be in. That is a little far-fetched and I wish they had just employed the new character in the ME's department. Would be more believable.Good series however.

I don't know why I watch this show
The fact that I have been willing to watch this show says something. They got something right. Or maybe I'm just not too choosy when it comes to that late spring - early summer pause in original programming. What they don't get right is sloppy writing (you can drive a truck through some of the leaps of logic), few characters to like (including the main character who is self-centered and very rude to everyone around her), the main character's implausible rate of being right on the slightest evidence, and some characters disappear without explanation. Which brings me back to my original question...so why do I watch this?

Lookedforward to the DVD arriving
Each episode was very engaging, just wondering if there may be a follow on season

Great DVD set
Great DVD set. The stories are built around very realistic scenarios which make this show very believable. I love the interaction with the characters too; a real sense of family is present.

rare
les séries américaines se suivent en "copié - collé "En voici une différente : humour discret mais subtil , suspense infernal , les pistes sont brouillées obligeant le spectateur à participer pour trouver les énigmes !!! , séduction , mélangeant la vie privée des protagonistes . Apportant une immersion qui diversifie & oxygène la série . Apportant un coté + humain , intimisteSérie intelligente qui oblige à acquérir toutes les saisons !!!PS : on regrette qu' elle s' arrête à la saison 3 . Un plus de qualité aussi plutôt que celles qui s' accrochent obstinément , n' ayant pas peur du ridicule !!! ex : BONES !!!

Great Item
Bought this as a family member had one, and looked good. I like listening to "Talk Sport", while in the bath, sounds weird I know, but I usually take my iPad in to the bathroom, but with this great piece of kit, which works on "Bluetooth", I just switch it on sync with iPad, all which is easy, and leave iPad in bedroom, while listening to it, waterproof, and rechargeable.Well worth the money.

I am very pleased to add this season to my collection. I enjoy this show very much and buying the seasons gives me the availability to feel free to watch according to my time.
