    We’re getting a whiff of high drama over at High Potential .

    Veteran producer Rob Thomas ( Veronica Mars , Party Down ) has exited as showrunner of the upcoming ABC drama, our sister site Variety reports , after having been “not seen recently on set” — though the parting of ways is described as “amicable.”

    A new showrunner has not yet been named.

    High Potential is set to debut this fall, airing Tuesdays at 10/9c (where it will lead out of Dancing With the Stars , seeing as Will Trent and The Rookie are both riding the pine until 2025 ).

    Written by Drew Goddard ( The Good Place ), based on the French series Haut Potentiel Intellectuel (HPI) and starring Kaitlin Olson ( It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia ), High Potential follows 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 (played by Graceland ‘s Daniel Sunjata).

    The cast also includes Javicia Leslie ( Batwoman ), Deniz Akdeniz ( The Flight Attendant ), Amirah J ( Shameless ), Matthew Lamb ( Firebuds ) and Judy Reyes ( Scrubs ).
