It's time for another thrilling Rian Johnson murder mystery, but this time, it's not about another installment of *Knives Out*. Instead, we're diving into *Poker Face*, the captivating comedy-drama featuring the talented Natasha Lyonne. Launched on Peacock in 2022, the show quickly established itself with a "mystery of the week" format, featuring new guest stars in each episode. The series follows Lyonne's character, Charlie Cale, a casino worker on the run with a unique gift for detecting lies, which she uses to unravel various crimes.
Fast forward a little over two years, and *Poker Face* is back with its highly anticipated second season. Critic Samantha Nelson shared her thoughts on the first ten episodes, stating, "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 all the information you need to catch up on *Poker Face*.
