"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Is anyone watching Body of Proof? It's interesting, but I am mostly enjoying the exterior shot of Providence. The Providence Public Library makes for a pretty police department headquarters.

I had no idea where the show was set. I've been watching it but I wouldn't recognize Providence in any case.

I read somewhere that it was actually set in Philly, but they actually shot the exterior stuff in Providence.

It is supposed to be set in Philly. I've been watching it and really enjoying it-- Megan is like what Brennan would be if she had a soul and a consistent sense of self-awareness.

I was thinking that too, with just a little touch of House in the super smart a little Sherlockian department.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I was thinking all of this, too! I'm starting to like it. The presence of Jeri Ryan doesn't hurt, either. Though I'm not real sure why the Department Chief needed to be a lovely young woman - is she going to become Megan's One True Friend or something? And I must have missed it, but why is that guy following Megan around? He's her liaison to something, or a bodyguard, or what?

Peter? He's a Medical Investigator, which is a position I just learned about in a forensics workshop.

They're not doctors, nor are they cops, but they're somewhere between the two-- they're often the first on the scene after the cops and they're the ones who determine whether or not the ME or coroner needs to be called in. In Seattle, at least, they can assist in autopsies and they're often the ones who are collecting evidence and taking photographs and essentially doing a lot of the dirty work, including conducting interviews and notifying families.

I thought that Megan's boss was already a friend: i.e., that they knew each other before she came to work for the ME's office.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

WHY ARE YOU CHEATING ON NEAL, PETER? IS IT BECAUSE OF THE WAREHOUSE OF LOOTED GOODS?
