Random Thought #3: Crossing Jordan Deaths

Today's Date: Sat. 8/16/2014

As I was writing down my views of my YouTube videos, as I do because I am OCD like that, I realized that the two blond actresses who were on the show, "CROSSING JORDAN (2001-2007), were both killed off because they were both love interests of Detective Woodrow 'Woody' Hoyt. Whom is portrayed by Jerry O'Connell. The thought hit me like a brick and I was like "WOW" and "DAMN," both of their deaths made me cry.

Just so you know SPOILER ALERT:

The first love interest of Detective Hoyt who died was Dr. Devan Maguire (Jennifer Finnigan). Devan was a new medical examiner in the Boston Chief Medical Examiner's Office. Jennifer's character only appeared in 10 episodes, from late season 3 to early season 4 episodes. She first appeared in Season 3_Episode 4: Is That Plutonium In Your Pocket Or Are You Just Happy To See Me. Her character died in Season 4_Episode 8: Fire in the Sky. Devan died due to a plane crash, hence the title.

The second love interest of Woody's was Detective Tallulah 'Lu' Simmons (Leslie Bibb). Detective Simmons was a police psychiatrist  and she first met Woody during one of his mandatory sessions because in the previous six episodes he was shot by a teenaged kid, and he started to act out towards his friends/colleagues. Detective Simmons was in 14 episodes of the show, that is four more episodes than the other blond actress & character. 

Detective Simmons first appeared in Season 5_Episode 5: Enlightenment. Detective Simmons died in Season 6_Episode 3: 33 Bullets. She died during a police riot, which also happened to be a race riot because several hours before her untimely death a young black boy had been shot by three uniformed police officers because they thought he had a gun. TISK TISK TISK! Her death made me cry than Devan's death. I'm just being honest, hello she died in the line of duty.

I guess that is what happens to blonds who are in love with the leading men in a t.v show. I mean the star of the show Jordan Cavanaugh (Jill Hennesy) is a brunette and she has feelings for Woody but it wasn't until like season 6 where she was like "I could see spending the rest of my life with him." Those are my words not hers but I could tell that that is what she was thinking. Too bad there wasn't a season 7, I would've loved to have seen Woody & Jordan be a couple and get married.

eh, who knows may be there will be a Crossing Jordan movie in the near future or at least a TV Movie. I would totally watch it and any other Crossing Jordan fan. This is all I have to say for now. Goodbye. Until Next Time!!!
