There’s a whole lotta shakin’ going on when High Potential returns for its second season next week. Not only is our resident genius-IQ consultant Morgan Gillory (the always Emmy-worthy Kaitlin Olson) hellbent on protecting her kids from last season’s finale threat from the homicidal Game Maker responsible for a series of kidnappings, but she’s also about to risk her reputation with the LAPD to prove that the crafty Matthew Clark (David Giuntoli) is the man(iac) they are looking for.

“The push-off in our premiere that launches you into the second part of our [story] is going to have Morgan really going head-to-head with one of the smarter, more clever criminals that we’ve seen her go up against today,” sets up showrunner Todd Harthan. Thankfully, she is going have more than just her usual suspects of allies as backup this time: Early in the season, Morgan’s LAPD pals — partner, Det. Adam Karadec (Daniel Sunjata), Lt. Selena Soto (Judy Reyes), and Karadec’s fellow detectives Lev “Oz” Ozdil (Deniz Akdeniz) and Daphne Forrester (Javicia Leslie) — are getting a new boss. And he’s not what you’re imagining.
