Get ready for another thrilling installment of Rian Johnson's captivating murder mystery series, but this time it's not about Benoit Blanc. We're diving into the world of "Poker Face," the engaging comedy-drama that stars the charismatic Natasha Lyonne. Launched in 2022, the first season of this Peacock original quickly became a fan favorite with its 'mystery of the week' format, featuring a new ensemble of guest stars in each episode. At the heart of the series is Lyonne's character, Charlie Cale, a casino worker on the run with a unique talent for detecting lies, which she uses to crack various criminal cases.
Now, more than two years later, "Poker Face" is back with its highly anticipated second season on Peacock. In her review of the first 10 episodes, critic Samantha Nelson praised the show, 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."
