Roxanne "Roxy" Harvey is a fictional character on the Showtime comedy-drama Dead Like Me.
She was strangled with leg warmers by a jealous friend after Roxy invented them.[1] It appears from this that her soul was collected after her death, or else quite some time before. Roxy and George are the only other reapers of the group with a day job. She used to be a meter maid for the city, but entered the police academy at the beginning of the second season.[2]
She is a no nonsense woman in respects to both reaping and her day job, and carried a handgun to keep arguments over parking tickets short.[3] She is the only reaper on the series who used her powers in anger, when she temporarily removed the soul from a particularly rude motorist,[4] thereby enlightening him of a higher power; the man subsequently started a religion around her, much to Rube's dismay. She has confessed to not sleeping because of nightmares. Rube considers Roxy to be his "second in command" and left her in charge when he went away. Assigned to investigate the disappearance of Ray Summers, Roxy knows that Daisy and Mason had something to do with it, but chose to cover for them, claiming that Ray ran off to Portland.
