Crossing Jordan
From TeeVeePedia, the Internet TV Encyclopedia.
Crossing Jordan has aired on NBC since 2001. A crime drama, the show stars ancient Hebrew detectives who have been transported to modern times. Using Biblical techniques, they try to catch suspects in modern-day Jerusalem. The name Crossing Jordan refers to Nike star and former cast member Michael Jordan, who left the show after the second season to found the AND-1 organization.
Crossing Jordan is most notable for having a character named Mahesh "Bug" Vijayaraghavensatyanaryanamurthy. I mean, what kind of lazy writers came up with a character name like that?
