WMDT sits down with cast members of new ABC series ‘High Potential’

DELMARVA – ABC’s new series, High Potential, follows a single mom with an exceptional mind whose unconventional knack for solving crimes leads to an unusual and unstoppable partnership.

Morgan, a mom of three, has an IQ of 160 and is seemingly too smart for every job, as she struggled to find work. But in this procedural series, her incredible ability to solve crimes gets her some attention and follows her along in her unconventional detective work.

We sat down with two of her co-stars to learn more about it.

“While she’s doing her job as a cleaning lady at the precinct, she impulsively solves a crime, which encourages my character, the lieutenant, to hire her as a consultant ultimately as she deals with life as a mother of three kids,” said Judy Reyes.

“She has to work with me unfortunately, that’s the downside. She has to help me fix my mistakes and find things that we and everybody else in the major crime units miss and she does it week after week,” said Daniel Sunjata.

High Potential airs Tuesdays at 10 p.m. on ABC WMDT.
