Spoilers ahead for the series premiere of High Potential on ABC. Kaitlin Olson is best known for playing Sweet Dee on FXX's It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia for the better part of two decades, but she has a brand new project in the 2024 TV schedule before It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia Season 17 is ready in the 2025 TV schedule . High Potential marks her return to a series regular gig on a major network after the end of The Mick back in 2018.
After tuning in to the premiere of her new ABC show, I found myself thinking back to her sixteen seasons and counting on Always Sunny , and I have one big takeaway. What High Potential Delivered In The Series Premiere In High Potential , Olson plays single mom Morgan, who already has enough on her plate with three kids and job as a police station custodial worker even before she gets involved in a murder investigation. Due to her extremely high IQ, extensive knowledge of obscure facts, and need to fix mistakes when she sees them, she ends up helping the cops instead of facing charges for the number of crimes she commits within the very first episode.
(You'll be able to stream the series premiere with a Hulu subscription .) Standouts of the cast in addition to Olson include Judy Reyes as Selena and Daniel Sunjata as Karadec , and I just wish we'd gotten to see more of SNL alum Taran Killam as Morgan's ex, Ludo . There's still plenty of time for that, though, and High Potential was heavily featured in ABC's promotion for the fall TV se.
