This series is one of my favorites because, again, of great casting. Kaitlin Olson plays Morgan Gillory, this brilliant, quirky, empath, with an occasional quick trigger on her anger, and the single mother of three children, the oldest a teen girl whose father has been missing since she was a baby. Her wardrobe and makeup (which she pulls off in spades) is as eccentric as her incredible abilities to “see things that others don’t.”
Accompanying “Morgan’s” unique character are true detectives, who often marvel at their consultant’s shocking insights into people and crimes, and who will only occasionally stretch their lawful limitations to accommodate Morgan’s observations and suggested actions.
The writing surpasses the expectations of the marketing description of this series which, granted, is a difficult one to capture. Each episode brings meaningful looks into the compelling characters involved in this series with each actor making them come alive to the viewer.
High Potential will return for a third season but not until 2027. That’s a long time to wait since it ended with a critical cliffhanger.
