Review of Poker Face

Poker Face (2023– )
9/10
So far, SO good!
26 January 2023
Only watched the first episode so far but it is great to see a character who isn't just a retread of every other super hero or an angst-ridden weakling. I checked Natasha Lyonne out and see she has roles on 64 listings, but I had never seen or heard of her before. I hope this production is the beginning of a new chapter in her career.

Charlie is so refreshing and the performers playing opposite her are top flight. (Fun to see Benjamin Bratt again and Adrian Brody is great as a slimy weasel.) Ready to dive back in to Episode 2 to see this gal with a supernatural gift and a superhuman moral compass. And that smoky voice of her is as appealing to listen to as her disaster zone of hair is to watch.

Good production values, some great cynical jokes makes this a good choice for viewers who like semi-realistic drama with a sprinkling of black humor.
