‘Home Economics’ Canceled After Three Seasons at ABC, New Series ‘High Potential’ Shifts to Fall 2024
variety.comJoe Otterson TV Reporter ABC has canceled the comedy series “Home Economics” after three seasons, Variety has learned. In addition, the new series “High Potential” starring Kaitlin Olson is now slated to debut in fall 2024. “Home Economics” aired its third season finale in January of this year, which will now serve as its series finale.
The series was one of just two ABC shows that remained on the bubble, with the other being the spinoff “The Rookie: Feds.” “Home Economics” was a solid performer for ABC but never quite a breakout.
ABC picked up the show for a 13 episode third season but then declined to expand the order beyond that. Fans of the show were given a glimmer of hope over the summer when ABC reportedly extended the casts’ options, meaning they were still considering a fourth season, but it ultimately did not come to pass.
Per the official series description, “Home Economics” followed the “relationship among three adult siblings: one in the 1%, one middle-class and one barely holding on.” The series starred Topher Grace as Tom, Caitlin McGee as Sarah, Jimmy Tatro as Connor, Karla Souza as Marina and Sasheer Zamata as Denise.
