The debut season of High Potential ended with a bang.

The season finale of ABC’s popular crime drama led by Kaitlin Olson matched the show’s season high in total viewership, according to The Hollywood Reporter, and even achieved a new personal best in the crucial “adults 18-49” demographic. What does this mean for fans of the series? A renewal for a second season!

Olson expressed her enthusiasm for the role during the Deadline Contenders Television event in April, saying, “I just fell in love with this character. I love the idea of playing something different. This woman is a very good mom and a really good person deep down, as opposed to my other characters, and I just wanted to do something different.”
