Kaitlin Olson stars in this comedy series that follows single mom of three Morgan Gillory as she navigates a new career with the LAPD after the department learns of her high IQ and knack for solving crime. Olson is always funny, in that sharp-tongued, eye-rolling signature way that made us all fall in love with her as Dee in It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia.Ā

While this sort of sitcom-mystery show can sometimes prove repetitious, Olson’s charm and the writers’ wit manage to keep this series from becoming dull. Part of the storyline revolves around her teen daughter, Ava (Amirah J), who knows her mom is intelligent but also has to be the stand-in co-parent for younger siblings Elliot (Matthew Lamb) and baby Chloe. While Chloe and Elliot’s dad is Morgan’s ex, Ludo (Taran Killam), Ava’s dad has been missing for years. Cue a ready-made mystery just waiting to be solved.Ā 

If you love Olson, you are going to love her here too. Heck, even if you just like her and need a bit of fun with a bite then High Potential will certainly hit the spot. (13 40- to 44-minute episodes)
