Todd Harthan has been tapped as the new showrunner and executive producer of ABC’s “High Potential,” starring Kaitlin Olson. Harthan was previously executive producer/showrunner of Fox’s “The Resident,” which ran for six seasons and recently was a hit off-net for Netflix.
Harthan replaces previous showrunner Rob Thomas, who departed the project earlier this month. The series is set to air Tuesdays at 10 p.m. this fall, after “Dancing With the Stars.”
Production is back on after a previously scheduled hiatus. Thomas’ departure was described as “amicable.” Exec producer Drew Goddard is the writer behind “High Potential,” which is based on the French series “Haut Potentiel Intellectuel (HPI)” and stars Olson as “a single mom with an exceptional mind, whose unconventional knack for solving crimes leads to an unusual and unstoppable partnership with a by-the-book seasoned detective.”
