The new Natasha Lyonne show on Peacock called “poker face“ is just “lie detector Colombo“ and it’s very blatant. Even down to the opening credits.

Shadow (andthegeekshall@mastodon.social)'s status on Sunday, 05-Mar-2023 12:50:11 JST Shadow @Mrfunkedude Rian Johnson, the producer and main writer, has said it's basically his take on Columbo, with a few twists to the formula.
I found it a very good if repetitive at times show.
Natasha Lyonne is brilliant in it though. Really nails Falk's mannerisms. -
