Crime drama series High Potential has finally returned for its second season – and we have the lowdown on its episode release schedule.
The show focuses on a cleaning lady called Morgan Gillory (Kaitlin Olson) who becomes a consultant for the Los Angeles Police Department’s Major Crimes division thanks to her intellectual gifts.
The series, which is based on France and Belgium’s Haut Potentiel Intellectuel (HPI), debuted its first season last year to high acclaim, sitting at an impressive 96% fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

Independent Online (South Africa) suggested that if “you are a fan of whodunits, this one ticks the box – and then some”, while the Daily Mail said the series “has the studio-bound look of a classic U.S. sitcom and the pacing to match”.
“What we have here is gorgeous, brilliant trash TV, done so well that it should be showered with special awards,” wrote The Guardian, Variety adding: “With Olson leading the charge and skillful actors backing her up, the series is perfectly adequate formulaic television.”

Speaking about the second season, Olson previously teased to Deadline: “I want to have really fun, dramatic stuff, and I want to have really funny moments and explore relationships.
“I think it’s important to dive deeper into the other characters on the show. We didn’t have the opportunity to do that as much as I think we should, and so we’re going to definitely be digging in there, too.”
The second season’s first episode has become available as of today, with UK viewers able to watch the premiere on Disney+.
Fans will be able to catch subsequent episodes over the next few weeks, but which dates will they become available on?
