- TriviaThe sign over lab door reads: Hic Locus est Ubi Mors Gaudet Succurrere Vitae (This is where death rejoices to teach the living).
- GoofsIn every episode, in a deliberate break from the real world, Doctor Hunt's job does not require the wearing of surgical masks, respirators, lab coats, surgical gloves, shoe coverings, plastic aprons, arm protectors, hair coverings and goggles. No mask, no googles, free flowing hair is pure television fiction.

Featured review
Give it a chance....it has potential and is medically accurate
The series is about a defamed neurosurgeon Dr.Megan Hunt who has now left her profession as a surgeon and has become the medical examiner . She uses her expertise as a brilliant neurosurgeon to solve murders. ### THIS is the review based on PILOT ###
Just by seeing a pilot one can never decide if the show is good/bad...one can only guess how it might turn out..Most reviews here seem to judge it too early.
Dana Delany was good, not excellent. She tried her best in the pilot to portray in forty minutes , how a woman would feel in her position. It is tough to make an impression in the very first episode because an actor needs to build a solid foundation upon which her character would develop richly and as something people will connect to in the coming episodes. If in some scenes she seemed to falter I feel the writers are to blame because they seem to try hard to stuff all the emotions and past story in just 40 minutes and hey don't forget, there is a murder to solve too. Her character seem to unravel in a hurry and it's not Delany's fault.
The supporting cast were okay, actually they seemed like stereotypes taken from series like house(boss of hunt seemed like cuddy), the detectives(csi and castle?) and so on...yes the writers need to develop these characters better, although the confused doctor played by Geoffrey Arend (Dr. Elliot)and the frenemy played by Middlebrooks(Dr. Curtis) were unique and entertaining.
And for the plot, I cannot think of any plot holes and as a person in the medical field I can say that the medicine part was not slouchy like some soaps ( cough..grays anatomy)and was actually convincing.
So in conclusion, I would not write off the show this early...Let's wait and see how it develops.
