## Summary

ABC has delayed High Potential’s third season to its midseason schedule, with the series expected to return in early 2027. The move is part of a broader scheduling decision that also affects The Rookie and Will Trent, leaving the shows off ABC’s autumn line-up.

ABC has not announced an exact premiere date, though the article says an early January return is likely. High Potential is also set to air a special episode after the Super Bowl on 14 February 2027. Nora and Lilla Zuckerman are taking over as co-showrunners, and Steve Howey will no longer be a series regular, though he could return as a guest.
