‘High Potential’: Fans Debate Who Has Better Chemistry With Morgan: Karadec or Wagner (POLL)
Spoiler Alert
What To Know
- Which High Potential character does Morgan have better chemistry with? Karadec or Wagner?
- We take a look at the fan debate circulating around Morgan’s love life.
High Potential‘s Season 2 finale may have come and gone, and the fate of the LAPD’s new captain, Nick Wagner (Steve Howey), may be uncertain, but fans continue to debate the potential romance between him and Morgan (Kaitlin Olson) after their steamy elevator kiss.
It’s no secret some fans have been rooting for Morgan’s potential romance with partner Karadec (Daniel Sunjata), but the will-they-won’t-they dynamic was put on hold as he reunited with his ex, Lucia (Susan Kelechi Watson). As the fate of Morgan’s love life hangs in the balance, Lucia’s exit due to legal troubles leaves a path open for the Morgan and Karadec vibes to grow, but will Wagner survive the stabbing that left him bloody and gasping in Season 2’s final moments? That feels like the determining factor for whether or not Season 3 of High Potential will explore a romance or not.
But fans haven’t been shy about sharing their feelings regarding the chemistry Morgan seems to share with both men, with many now rooting for her romance with Wagner.

“I feel like there’s better chemistry between her and Wagner than Karadec. Am I the only one that sees this?” One fan pondered on Reddit.
“I’ve been a huge Morgadec shipper from day one, and I too agree with this,” another commented. “When Karadec was at her house. I know it was an emotional situation for him, but she was giving nothing but friendship vibes.”
Meanwhile, one viewer pointed out, “Karedec is definitely in love with Morgan, and she loves him too, just not in that same way. Idk what’s gonna happen with Wagner, as much as I don’t want them to stay together, I’m really hoping that it doesn’t end the way I think it is.”
Another fan argued that the chemistry Morgan has with both men is strong, but different. “To me, it’s just different. Morgan and Wagner have a ‘hot romance’ kinda vibe. And Morgan and Karadec have a ‘I genuinely love, adore, and care about you’ type of vibe. But in theory, both could lead to a long-term relationship.”
“TBH, I like Wagner for the hot romance, lol, but I like that Karadec and Morgan are so opposite, yet still like each other,” they continued.
But where do you stand? Let us know which character you think Morgan has better chemistry with in the fan poll below, and sound off in the comments section.

Morgan and Karadec are one of the most beautiful slowburns I've seen in a procedural show. They remind me so much of Chenford from The Rookie, can't wait to see their romance play out. There'll always be other love interests for both of them until they finally admit their feelings, but it'll be so worth it when they do!

Totally agree,only hope it doesn't take them as long as it took Chenford

I agree as well, a slowburn is the best way to describe Morgan and Karadec's relationship. If I'm being honest, her kiss with Wagner felt kind of out of left field.

morgadec slowburn has been SO good!! i think the mistake they made was hiring an actor people already loved for nick. he wasn’t a good dude. he tried to get morgan fired, he took advantage of her when she was upset. but people like the actor and he’s attractive so instead of viewing it in a bad light people are like ohhh he’s attractive she should pick him. but i’m still rooting for two seasons of glorious slowburn!

Karadec always looked out for Morgan. Wagner did not protect her from danger. Did not like Lucia and Karadec.
If Morgan and Karadec do not get together, maybe other people , that are not part of main characters. I do like how they look at each other. Just don't want it to ruin the show. I love their chemistry.

I’m all for Morgan and Wagner.
Wagner has swag. He has magnetism. The way he took charge of the scene in kissing Morgan was EVERYTHING!!! Please tell the producers to let him recover and live from the stabbing. We need him! Morgan needs him!! The show needs him!! Things would NOT be the same in his absence.
