It's time for another thrilling installment from the mind of Rian Johnson, but this time, it's not another Knives Out film. We're diving into Poker Face, the comedy-drama featuring the inimitable Natasha Lyonne. After captivating audiences with its first season in 2022, Poker Face is back on Peacock for Season 2, maintaining its intriguing "mystery of the week" format with fresh guest stars each episode. At the heart of the series is Lyonne's character, Charlie Cale, a former casino worker on the run who possesses a remarkable knack for detecting lies, which she uses to unravel various crimes.
Two years on, Poker Face is set to return, and critic Samantha Nelson has shared her thoughts on the initial ten episodes of Season 2: "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 new to the series or eagerly awaiting the next chapter, here's everything you need to know to catch Poker Face.
