It’s time for another thrilling Rian Johnson murder mystery, but this time, it's not another installment of Knives Out. Instead, we're diving into the world of Poker Face, the comedy-drama series starring the charismatic Natasha Lyonne. The show, which first hit Peacock in 2022, follows a mystery-of-the-week format, featuring new guest stars each episode. At the heart of it all is Lyonne’s character, Charlie Cale, a casino worker on the run with a unique knack for detecting lies, which she uses to crack various crimes.
Fast forward a little over two years, and Poker Face is back for its second season on Peacock. Critic Samantha Nelson shared her thoughts on the first 10 episodes, saying, “Driven by a magnetic performance from Natasha Lyonne, clever writing, and a laundry list of comedic guest stars, Season 2 of the howcatchem isn’t prestige TV, but it should definitely be on your watch list.”
Whether you're starting from the beginning or eagerly awaiting Season 2, here’s your complete guide to watching Poker Face.
