High Potential Ratings & Reviews
- ybxj40November 8, 2025amazing!! the way she does everything is just astonishing!!!!
- CallumOctober 28, 2025⭐⭐⭐⭐ (out of 5) High Potential – Brains, brooms, and brilliant deductions. “High Potential” puts a refreshing spin on the police-procedural formula: a single mum with an off-the-charts IQ and a mop in hand solves crimes the professionals can’t. Much like Castle, our untrained lead sees the world differently — patterns, motives, and clues the detectives miss — and it’s that outsider’s logic that cracks the case. Where Blue Lights dives deep into the mud of reality – Warhammer 40K grit and emotional exhaustion – and Death in Paradise floats through its saccharine tropical fairy-tale murders, High Potential lands about 80–90 percent of the way to Paradise. The tone is warm and funny, but the work ethic and authenticity come straight from Blue Lights’ school of sweat-and-intuition policing. High Potential is a latte in no man’s land — civilised chaos held together by caffeine, wit, and stubborn optimism. Amid the crime-solving chaos, family life hums in the background: single-parent struggles, growing kids, and an ex who’s refreshingly amicable — a rarity in TV drama. The balance between domestic warmth and detective grit gives the show its charm — smooth, satisfying, like a Baileys on ice on a hot day. It’s clever, heartfelt, and anchored by a female lead who’s truly in charge, much like Castle’s namesake but with a broom instead of a book. High Potential proves that intellect, empathy, and stubbornness are just as potent as any badge.

- Joe PickeringOctober 12, 2024Execptional TV show. Wonderful writing, not overly complex or unbelievable - almost like a House MD style crime show, with a bit more heart. Solid watch.
- BundlearooskidooFebruary 24, 2025More far fetched woke drivel, but I'm a sucker for whodunits.
