Fans of the gripping crime series High Potential can finally breathe a sigh of relief, as the show makes its return to Disney+ following a mid-season hiatus. The acclaimed drama, starring Kaitlin Olson, left viewers on a cliffhanger just before the holidays, but the wait for new episodes is now over.
When Is The Next High Potential Episode On Disney Plus?
The next episode, titled 'The One That Got Away: Part Two', was released on Disney+ in the UK on Tuesday, January 7. This followed its US broadcast by just one day. For UK audiences, new instalments of the show will continue to drop weekly. Each subsequent episode is scheduled to arrive on the streaming platform every Wednesday, typically becoming available from 8am on release day.
Navigating The Mid-Season Break
The pause in transmission came as a surprise to many British viewers, though it is a common scheduling tactic for US network television. The break occurred after the seventh episode of the second season aired, effectively serving as a winter holiday intermission. This leaves a substantial amount of content still to come, with a further 11 episodes planned for this season. In total, Season 2 will comprise 18 episodes, marking an increase from the show's debut season.
Recap And What To Expect Next
For those catching up, High Potential centres on Morgan, played by Kaitlin Olson, a brilliant but unconventional single mother whose unique talent for solving crimes forges an unlikely alliance with a seasoned, by-the-book detective named Karadec.
The narrative paused with Morgan and Karadec deep into the investigation of a stolen high-value painting, assisted by an art recovery expert from the owner's insurance firm. Captain Wagner had taken personal charge of the case. In parallel subplots, Ava sought information about her father from Arthur, while Soto examined the mysterious contents of Roman's backpack.
With the story now resuming, viewers can expect the tension to ramp up as these intertwined threads begin to unravel. The extended episode order for Season 2 promises a deeper dive into both complex cases and the dynamic relationships between the show's compelling characters.
