Aramide Tinubu Variety With Olson leading the charge and skillful actors backing her up, the series is perfectly adequate formulaic television. Sep 17, 2024 Full Review Nina Metz Chicago Tribune “High Potential” struggles to ground itself in solid storytelling and create fully realized characters, even when they are one-offs. Rated: 2/4 Sep 16, 2024 Full Review Joel Keller Decider High Potential rides on how appealing Kaitlin Olson is as the show’s lead, with an assist by the ever-reliable Judy Reyes. Are the mysteries any good? Probably not. Sep 18, 2024 Full Review Sherin Nicole RIOTUS High Potential is a 'bag of chips' type of show—salty, crunchy, and makes you want to keep going...It has humor, creative crimes, and a sassy kind of sauce. Sep 16, 2024 Full Review Rob Owen Pittsburgh Tribune-Review Sometimes all it takes is the right casting to make a show that on paper sounds “meh” turn out so much better. That’s the case here thanks to the likeable lead performance by Kaitlin Olson. Sep 16, 2024 Full Review Tara Bennett Paste Magazine High Potential is a very strong series start, scratching the entertainment itch for those who love clever mysteries and quirky character pieces that make procedurals more watchable. Rated: 8.1/10 Sep 16, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

Laura L Solid pilot. Good twist at the end. The teen daughter is written like every other show sadly. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/18/24 Full Review micah c I really enjoyed the first episode of High Potential. Kaitlin Olsen was outstanding playing Morgan. The chemistry she has with her “kids” and the rest of the cast really made this comedy/drama more heartfelt. I’m very excited to continue this series week by week and can’t wait to see what happens next. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 09/18/24 Full Review Read all reviews
