Hennessy is a cheering sight merely by virtue of her telegenic beauty, but in short order she's showing us beauty of that proverbial deeper kind.
By Tom Shales FULL REVIEW

Mar 29, 2022
The mystery in the first episode contains some nice reverses, and the fact that it's not quite resolved in the end promises that "Jordan" at least intends to deliver something more than the rote 60-minute mystery of less-ambitious cop shows. [24 Sep 2001]

The hokum factor is pretty high, but Hennessy is a nice combination of pert and sour, her primary co-stars are solid and the premise is functional. [24 Sep 2001]

Jordan may be many things, but nothing about it is interesting.

Mar 29, 2022
Mostly, Crossing Jordan comes off like a lighter, jokier version of CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, last season's surprise hit. The triteness engulfs appealing Hennessy and her co-stars. [16 Sep 2001, p.4]
