TV tonight's top picks: Highlights for Wednesday, September 17, featuring Season 2 of High Potential
In the world of entertainment, there's always something new and exciting to look forward to. Here's a brief update on some of the most talked-about series currently streaming.
The Morning Show (Apple TV+) is back for its fourth season, with Jennifer Aniston's character, Alex, juggling her role as an executive and presenting duties under the authoritarian rule of Homelander-esque leadership. The season is also marked by controversy following an interview with an Iranian athlete and a surprising comment made by Oliver to Taniae. Marion Cotillard joins the cast as an imposing new board member, Celine Dumont. Meanwhile, Bradley, played by Reese Witherspoon, returns to the show.
Over on Prime Video, the spin-off series Gen V (season 2) continues to explore college-aged superheroes at Godolkin University. The new principal, Dean Cipher, played by Hamish Linklater, has implemented a chilling regime, while the second season will honour the late actor Chance Perdomo by addressing his character's absence in storylines. Fans of The Boys might be excited to know that Erin Moriarty (Starlight) and Chace Crawford (The Deep) are expected to make cameo appearances.
If quirky crime dramas are more your style, then High Potential (Disney Plus) is worth a watch. The second season is available now, with Kaitlin Olson starring as Morgan Gillory. The season follows Morgan's search for her missing husband, ending with a cliffhanger. The first season, based on the French series HPI with Audrey Fleuroy, saw Morgan's search for her first missing husband. This season also introduces a new bombshell, causing fallout within the series.
For those who enjoy a bit of romance mixed with drama, BBC1's Stranded on Honeymoon Island is still going strong, with six honeymooning couples remaining.
Lastly, The Boys spin-off series, Gen V, is also available on Prime Video. The series, set at Godolkin University, follows the college-aged superheroes as they navigate their powers and personal lives. One couple left the show, and a new one joined in the latest season.
