People couldn't help but compare High Potential to the popular USA Network series Psych during its first season, and now, the connections between the two shows will only grow in season 2. The ABC crime drama is based on the 2021 Franco-Belgian series HPI and follows Kaitlin Olson's Morgan Gillory, a high potential intellectual (HPI). Morgan starts High Potential working as a cleaning lady for the LAPD. However, when she accidentally stumbles upon a case and discovers a detail that blows it wide open during one of her night shifts, Morgan becomes a consultant for a group of detectives.
