The network has renewed the Kaitlin Olson -led drama for a second season in 2025-26. High Potential has been a breakout for ABC, ranking among the top first-year series of 2024-25 so far and drawing strong streaming numbers in addition to its on-air ratings.

ABC sees the potential in Kaitlin Olson as amateur sleuth Morgan Guillory. The alphabet has announced a second season of Olseon’s High Potential, which opened the new year with its largest audience - 12.9 million - across all platforms over seven days, according to Nielsen.

High Potential has officially been renewed for Season 2 at ABC, and as we continue to enjoy Season 1’s rollout, we’re reflecting on everything we know about the upcoming chapter so far. Below, scroll down for a closer look at what’s on the horizon, ranging from Morgan’s ( Kaitlin Olson) story to premiere date hopes, and beyond.

The size of High Potential ‘s Season 2 order is TBD but is expected to be larger than Season 1, which consists of 13 episodes. Because of the show’s atypical production schedule and Olson’s commitment to her other series regular job on FX’s It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, filming on Season 1 had to wrap after its initial 13-episode order.

This is the second ABC series renewal announced today. It was previously reported that the single-cam comedy “Abbott Elementary” has been renewed for Season 5. Olson and her fellow “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia” cast members recently guest starred on that show.

Kaitlin Olson will return to screens as Morgan in a second season of "High Potential." ABC has granted a Season 2 renewal to "High Potential" for the 2025-26 broadcast season, the network announced Tuesday.
