Critics Consensus

With the ineffable Kaitlin Olson on hand to inject some spiky personality into a familiar formula, High Potential is a solid procedural with plenty of upside.

Caroline Framke Boston Globe It’s a balancing act that would trip up lesser actors, but one Olson takes on without breaking a visible sweat. For as solid as “High Potential” is overall, it still wouldn’t be realizing half its own potential without her. Jan 28, 2025 Full Review Tim Glanfield Times (UK) It’s the familiarity of the format that forms the foundation of success here. Layer on to that snappy and well-timed humour... and even the occasionally telegraphed plot points can be forgiven. Rated: 4/5 Jan 27, 2025 Full Review Michael Hogan Daily Telegraph (UK) This is cosy crime with an irreverent, impish twist. Rated: 4/5 Jan 24, 2025 Full Review Jerrica Tisdale Tell-Tale TV It is comforting to see Ken Marino appear on a Rob Thomas or Diane Ruggiero Wright show. It’s like an old friend randomly stopping by for a visit. You know he’s about to say the craziest stuff, but you love him. Rated: 4/5 Jan 23, 2025 Full Review Stephanie Morgan Common Sense Media Erin Brockovich meets Psych in this show that strikes a fun balance between light drama and heavy comedy, mixing the crime procedural elements with the sharp wit of Kaitlin Olson. Oct 9, 2024 Full Review Matt Roush TV Insider The chemistry between Olson and Sunjata is strong, with Morgan's blithe brashness igniting Karadec's by-the-book exasperation to solid comic effect. Rated: 3.5/5 Sep 24, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

Sarah M I really like the show. It's fun and funny. I definitely want more! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/02/25 Full Review Law L Definitely want more and more like this please 🙏 Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/01/25 Full Review Gail R She was so annoying during previews that I had to turn the previews so I didn't have to look at it again. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/25 Full Review Lorraine T Loved the French version, HPI. now on HULU. This one is its duller cousin. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/31/25 Full Review Claire D It’s a copie of the French show « HPI » badly done. Morgan is way less colorful, cheerful and goofy than the French one. They could have changed some things but no, to the names, the music, the dialogues everything is the same. I hope the American watch the French one Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/30/25 Full Review Mel M I enjoy the show! Always eager to watch the next one!
