Suspect someone’s lying? Natasha Lyonne is sniffing out the truth in Poker Face, a 10-episode series premiering on Peacock on Thursday (Jan. 26).
Lyonne plays Charlie Cale, a casino worker who can tell if a person is lying by looking at their face. After discovering her new talent for spotting lies, Charlie takes her crime-solving skills on the road.

Lyonne, who previously starred in Netflix’s Orange Is the New Black and Russian Doll, revealed that Charlie is inspired by Jeff Bridges’ character, The Dude, from The Big Lebowski. Speaking to the Associated Press, Lyonne described the character as “a person a little bit set back who’s kind of got sun on their face.”
“I’m usually more of a city slicker and someone who avoids getting hit by taxis and runs down in a subway,” she said.
Lyonne serves as executive producer on the mystery-of-the-week series created and executive produced by Rian Jonhson, the man behind Knives Out. The native New Yorker reunites with her OITNB co-star Dascha Polanco, who plays Charlie’s friend Natalie in Poker Face (Polanco also appeared in Russian Doll).
Adrien Brody, Benjamin Bratt, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Stephanie Hsu, David Castañeda, Lil Rel Howery, Jameela Jamil, Ellen Barkin and Chloë Sevigny are some of the series’ guest stars.
Maya Rudolph, Ram Bergman, Nena Rodrigue, Nora Zuckerman, Lilla Zuckerman and Iain B. MacDonald are co-executive producers. Keep reading for details on how to stream Poker Face from anywhere.

When viewers tap in for season 2 of Bel-Air, they will be Saweetie gracing their television screens.
Variety exclusively reports that the “ICY GIRL” rapper will appear in the second season of the popular Peacock series Bel-Air. Per the website’s reporting, Saweetie will be playing herself in the show.
This will not be the first time she will play herself on show. Saweetie has made numerous appearances during the third season of the Black-ish spinoff Grown-ish that lives on Freefrom.
Saweetie won’t be the only new face fans of Bel-Air can expect to see on the show’s second season. Brooklyn McLinn, Jazlyn Martin, and Riele Downs will join the cast in recurring roles.
Per Variety:
Brooklyn McLinn (“Cloak & Dagger,” “Black-ish”), Jazlyn Martin (“This Is Us,” “All American: Homecoming”), and Riele Downs (“Darby and The Dead,” “Henry Danger”) will all appear in the new season of the drama series take on “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.”
McLinn will play Doc Hightower, described as “a busy and driven basketball recruiter and AAU Coach who is impressed by Will’s game at Bel-Air Academy.” Martin will play Jackie. Of her character, it is said, “Her South L.A. street smarts put Will’s Philly swagger to the test when they are introduced to each other at a Venice basketball tournament.” Finally, Downs will play Yazmin, said to be “the president of the Black Student Union at Bel-Air Academy. While their paths have not previously crossed at school, Yazmin finds herself impressed by Carlton’s contributions to the club.”
Bel-Air Shut The Doubters Up
When Bel-Air was first announced, it wasn’t well received. The show is based on Morgan Cooper’s trailer featuring a dramatic retelling of the popular comedy sitcom starring Will Smith, which caught the eye of the actor who helped the trailer turn into an actual series and picked up for two seasons on NBC’s streaming network Peacock.
The series stars Jabari Banks as Will, Adrian Holmes as Phillip Banks, Cassandra Freeman as Vivian Banks, Olly Sholotan as Carlton Banks, Coco Jones as Hilary Banks, Akira Akbar as Ashley Banks, Jimmy Akingbola as Geoffrey, Jordan L. Jones as Jazz, and Simone Joy Jones as Lisa.
Season 2 premieres exclusively on Peacock on February 23.
