Forget High Potential's Morgan, Kaitlin Olson's Most Beloved Character Is Back In 2025

ABC's latest hit, High Potential, has brought back Kaitlin Olson's incredible skills in character acting through her portrayal as Morgan, a cleaner who gets hired as a consultant for the LAPD after she solves a case using surprising methods. High Potential features a different case in every episode, like most crime dramas, but has added a spin on the classic procedural by highlighting the unconventional duo that solves each case: Morgan and her partner, LAPD detective, Karadec. The show even follows the mystery behind what happened to Morgan's ex-husband, Roman.

High Potential has received high praise ever since its premiere in the fall of 2024. It continues to receive positive ratings, which gives the show hope for a possible High Potential season 2. The series has managed to stand out while surrounded by crime dramas, showcasing its likability. High Potential shows off Kaitlin Olson's skills fantastically and, fortunately, it is not the only show to air in 2025 that highlights Olson's never-ending talent.

Kaitlin Olson's Dee From It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia Is Back

Dee Will Appear In A Crossover With Abbott Elementary

Since her introduction in 2005, Olson's Dee Reynolds has remained one of the most popular characters on It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia. The twin sister of Dennis and a major part of the gang, Olson's Dee is an irreplaceable member of the It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia cast. Dee and the rest of the characters are reuniting for an exciting It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia crossover with Abbot Elementary in January 2025. Specific plot details have been kept under the lid, but as the two comedies are almost complete opposites of each other, the crossover is sure to be exciting.

The It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia crossover with Abbot Elementary is airing January 8 at 8:30 PM on ABC.

Fortunately, the crossover is not the only time that Dee is appearing in the 2025 television season. After a short season 16 in 2023, It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia season 17 is also airing in 2025. It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia season 17 will feature the gang returning to their uniquely miserable schemes that are filled with questionable but hilarious moments.

Why Olson's Dee Is So Beloved Even Though She's So Different From Morgan?

Dee Is Bad But In A Good Way

Olson's Morgan in High Potentialis sweet, quirky, intelligent, and completely subverts Dee in It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia. Despite their differences, both characters are extremely loved. Like many It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia characters, Dee has bad morals and enjoys watching the downfall of others. But that is part of what makes her character so good. She fits in with the others with ease and contributes effortlessly to the dark humor of the sitcom. Dee may be the complete opposite of Morgan, but that only shows off Olson's incredible talent.
