Megan Reeves is a fictional character in the CBS crime drama Numb3rs, played by Diane Farr.

Over the course of her appearance on the show, she has a romance with Dr. Larry Fleinhardt (Peter MacNicol) and receives an assignment with the United States Department of Justice, which causes her to rethink her career in the FBI.

[citation needed] In "Mind Games," she reveals she is estranged from her father, with whom she has not spoken in ten years.

[5] Megan stated that many of her life decisions were made when she was 16 years old, like leaving her home; she does not regret these choices.

[7] The friendship had progressed after a little while to a few lunches,[8] a dinner date at an Ethiopian restaurant,[9] and a late-night breakfast at a 24-hour café,[6] where Larry compared her fascinating layers of complexity to the M57 Nebula.

[11] In "Democracy", it is revealed that the FBI Director has been trying to get Megan to join a special task force for the United States Department of Justice.

Megan is noticeably different from her pre-DOJ assignment; she is somber and quick to lose her temper with a witness under her protection.

[14] In "Hollywood Homicide" Colby Granger returns, and Megan welcomes him back more enthusiastically than the other team members.

[17] In the season 4 finale, "When Worlds Collide", it is revealed that Megan is leaving the FBI to go to Washington to finish her doctorate and counsel women in prison.

In an interview with TVGuide News, Farr, however, stated that, although she enjoyed being on Numb3rs, she left the show in order to develop a one-hour-long drama with a previous boss, Peter Tolan.
