High Potential: can the American adaptation of HPI compete with the emblematic TF1 series?
Since its flamboyant launch, the series HPI has captured the hearts of more than 11.5 million of viewers in France, thanks to brilliant storylines and memorable performances, notably that of Audrey Fleurot. With the arrival of High Potential, the American adaptation broadcast on ABC, many questions arise. Will this version manage to capture the same enthusiasm? Let’s discover together the elements that could tip the scales.
Fan reactions and expectations
A series with great potential
HPI as an iconic series has left its mark, and expectations for its adaptation are therefore high. Early fans hope that this new version will take advantage of the solid foundation built by TF1. However, cultural differences can sometimes work in favor or against an adaptation. Considering the enthusiasm generated by the American reality TV, can we expect the narrative values and acting to live up to the promises?

The absence of parallel worlds or digital tricks in the plots could be an asset, allowing the story to shine through its simplicity. But will it be enough to capture the attention of an audience now accustomed to scintillating productions? Consumers of television culture are looking for innovations.
