Great news for fans of cerebral crime-solving: the highly anticipated second season of High Potential has officially been greenlit, with a confirmed release strategy that will see it dominate screens on both sides of the Atlantic.
The unique procedural drama, which stars the brilliant Katy O'Brian as a single mum with a knack for cracking complex cases, captivated audiences with its fresh take on the genre. Its return promises more intricate puzzles and the compelling dynamic between O'Brian's character and Daniel Sunjata's by-the-book detective.
When Can You Watch High Potential Season 2?
CBS will be the first to debut the new season, with the premiere episode scheduled to air on Sunday, 16th February 2025, at 10:05 PM ET/PT. This primetime slot positions the show for maximum viewership following the network's powerhouse lineup.
For viewers who prefer to stream, new episodes will be available to watch live and on-demand via Paramount+ for subscribers with the Premium plan. Those on the Essential tier can catch up the day after the episode airs on CBS.
What About UK Viewers?
While an exact UK broadcast date has yet to be officially confirmed, it is widely expected that a British network or streaming service will acquire the rights, as was the case with the first season. An announcement is anticipated in the coming months, likely aligning the UK release closely with the US schedule to minimise wait times for international fans.
