More Than Just Solving Crimes – Season 2 is a War of Emotions

The end of the first season left many big questions
The twist at the end of season 1 – Morgan’s husband Roman is still alive – was not only shocking but also opened up many new directions for exploitation. This is a typical ending to keep the audience hooked, and it did it well.

Great potential for character development
Showrunner Todd Harthan has confirmed that there will be:

Dig deeper into each character’s past

Introduce more family, exes

Explore the psychological aspects of relationships

This will help the audience stay more engaged, because they will not only watch to know “what’s the case this week” but also to follow the emotional and inner development of their favorite characters.

Case-of-the-week structure but with depth
The combination of crime and family drama in season 1 was highly appreciated, thanks to:

Unique cases with twists

The main character Morgan Gillory has a different style of solving cases, intelligent, a bit reckless, but full of emotions

Season 2 is promised to have many new and more attractive cases, with diverse nuances – from light to dark – keeping many groups of viewers.

The Morgan – Karadec relationship is a highlight

Although not yet determined to be love, but:

They have deep trust

There is natural chemistry on screen

And the audience is strongly “shipping” this couple

Todd Harthan once hinted that “friendship and loyalty” will be the center, which makes this relationship more authentic and gradually develops over time.
– “I love how High Potential didn’t rush to pair Morgan and Karadec right from the start. They have trust, there are some tender moments, and above all, they work well together.

In season 2, I hope this relationship continues to develop subtly. No need for confessions or hot kisses – just eyes, waiting for each other, protecting each other – is enough to make viewers’ hearts flutter. And if one day they really come together? That will be a worthy reward after a long journey.”

ABC and Hulu are putting great faith

Getting an early renewal

Potential to increase the number of episodes in season 2

Setting a slot to air after Dancing with the Stars – a hit show

=> Shows that ABC believes High Potential will continue to grow its viewership and can become a new “pillar” in primetime.

Potential for story expansion

A beloved cast (especially Kaitlin Olson)

A balanced psychological + crime direction

And the investment from the network

=> Season 2 is completely worth the audience’s continued wait.
High Potential – Season 2 has all the elements to succeed: engaging family drama, attractive characters, creative cases and a memorable main character. The only thing we need now, is time – and a promise that what’s coming will be worth the audience’s wait.
