Autopsy: The Last Hours of... is a British-American documentary-style television series that investigates the tragic, controversial and sudden deaths of celebrities.[3] The series debuted in 2014 on Channel 5[4] in the United Kingdom and was later broadcast in the United States by Reelz.[5] In 2016, the first American produced season of Autopsy aired with San Francisco's chief medical examiner (who was previously Panama City, Florida's District 14 medical examiner), Dr. Michael Hunter[6] taking over as the host. The UK produced[7] episodes featured Dr. Richard Shepherd[8] and subsequently (after about the first ten episodes), Dr. Jason Payne-James[9] (for about five more episodes) analyzing the official autopsy reports of various celebrities to determine their cause of death.
