Resumo
Reviewers say 'Poker Face' is a clever, episodic mystery series with Natasha Lyonne as a human lie detector solving crimes. The show is praised for its engaging premise, strong performances, and guest stars. Themes include the protagonist's unique ability, episodic nature, and homage to classic detective series. Critics note repetitive structure and occasional plot holes but appreciate Lyonne's charm and wit. The series is seen as entertaining and refreshing, though some find it formulaic and lacking in depth.

That's right - what we have here is the Columbo formula with a female lead, assuming all of his famous quirks and manorisms - from the "one more thing" prods to smoking cigars, Natasha Lyonne delivers "mystery" solving fun as the gravel voiced Charlie Cale. Even the font used for the credits is the same as The NBC Mystery Movie (1971).
This is a small twist on the reverse-detective story made famous first by Frederick Knott in Disque M para Matar (1954) and later by Columbo (1971), where the full crime is revealed to the audience up front, and the fun to the audience is watching the sleuth figure it out by discovering all the little details the killers get wrong, and watching the killers squirm.
The twist here is that once the crime is revealed, in typical Rian Johnson fashion, time is backed-up and Charlie Cale's involvement in the setting is revealed. She doesn't witness the crime, but is in orbits of all the characters when the crime is committed. She then uses her "I can tell when they're lying" power to determine who the guilty persons are, and is used to great affect.
This is great fun, and I hope it runs for a long, long time.

Solid show. Great premise and each story for each episode is very interesting, mysterious, entertaining and is well structured with great characters with villainous motives. The only negative this show suffers from is predictability. Obviously she will continue to solve every single murder every episode using her power of perception in picking lies. There's no deviation from the formula and no surprises at the end of each episode except for the satisfaction that the bad guys got what was coming to them. Still, it's a fun show with great storytelling. Will be interesting to see how the season ends.
Yes I said it. I've noticed that there are some similarities in their demeanor and even her raspy voice but I am glad to say, Charlie carves her own path in this easy flowing yet still mystical series. I'm two episodes in and so far so good. I happen to like Colombo so the similarities are pleasing and the fact that trouble seems to always find her as she try to evade her own troubles is a nice addition to the old mystery theater ploy. Custom and character is believable enough and actually begs for sympathy at times. The acting is spread out with a mixture of veterans and newbies but it still flows quite honestly. Here's hoping for the best!
The new season is mostly ridiculous.
It seems the writers have run out of quirky, original stories. The alligator one was ridiculous, the one with her investing a school kid for framing a boy and ruining his magic act is down right stupid. Last season for sure. Totally lost its charm.
Having her just drift around America finding stupid, predictable "Crimes" to solve is just too boring. She's not in danger anymore, no one is chasing her. She is meant to be this drifter but hair and makeup is always on point. Its just a farce right now.
The first season was great, I didnt expect the second season to drop off so quickly.

Great fun show, binge worthy
Really enjoying this show, watched the first 4 episodes in one hit. Love Natasha Lyonne as the main truth telling character. It's fun, lighthearted but not boring. The characters are well put together. The female truck driver in episode 2 was great. Sometimes you don't need a heavy drama and whilst this isn't edge of your seats its interesting and entertaining all the way through, episode 4 was a bit silly but clever none the less.
So expect some silly moments but fun to watch. Reminds me a bit of 'Shut Eye' about the fortune teller scam.
This story is about a woman who can really tell if your lying, who wouldn't like to have that skill.

- CuriosidadesThe font used for the credits, Folio Bold Extended, in this series is the same used for The NBC Mystery Movie (1971), and other Universal TV productions of the 1960s and '70s, and especially Columbo (1971), which is fitting seeing as the main character Charlie Cale (Natasha Lyonne) uses many of the "just one more thing" tricks to questioning suspects, similar to Columbo.
