DVD Review: Body of Proof - The Complete First Season

Author: ThalackPublished: Sep 15, 2011 at 8:40 pm 0 comments

Body of Proof is a fresh new murder/medical mystery drama. We closely follow Dr. Megan Hunt who is the newest medical examiner out to solve the mystery behind unexpected deaths. This once aspiring neurosurgeon loses it all after a car accident that leaves her hands going occasionally numb. It’s a setup with a lot of conflict for a great TV show.

With little regard for rules or authority, Dr. Hunt will do anything she can regardless of what she’s told she can or can’t do to solve it. She will collect clues through examining the victim’s bodies, performing medical tests and interviewing friends and families by any means necessary. It’s an extravagant crime solving puzzle full of pieces that she must put together to determine if a person’s death is from natural causes, bad drug interaction, or foul play.

Starring Dana Delany (Desperate Housewives), Nicholas Bishop (Past Life) and Jeri Ryan (Star Trek: Voyager, Boston Public, Shark), the cast has a great chemistry that absolutely makes this show work and pop in ways that draws you in. Every episode is an intriguing mystery and I’m hoping some time soon, I can solve a case before Dr. Hunt. You’ll be easy entertained by one of the biggest new hits on TV and Season 2 is just around the corner. If you need a refresh or a catch up, the complete season one set will soon be available on DVD.

I have enjoyed every second of the first season. Which truly brings about my only true complaint about this show thus far: it’s a mere nine episodes. However, this is expected as most shows have a short first season these days. Regardless of that, if you love TV shows such as Castle, House and Law and Order, then you’re really going to enjoy Body for Proof. It truly brings a mix of all these shows and brings them together into an artful harmony that many others fail to do.
