No Season 3 for the murder mystery series.
November 13, 2025
It is being reported by Deadline that Peacock has cancelled Poker Face after two seasons. The news comes four months after the murder mystery series wrapped its sophomore run. Word is, though, that creator Rian Johnson and executive producer Natasha Lyonne are trying to keep the show alive.
Word is a new iteration of the show is being shopped to other outlets that would see Peter Dinklage take over for Lyonne in the starring role. They are reportedly seeking a two-season commitment for any possible future home.
"We've been germinating this next move together since writing the season two finale," said Johnson and Lyonne in a statement. "We love our 'Poker Face' and this is the perfect way to keep it rolling. Give us a beat and we may just see Charlie Cale again down that open highway."
Structured as a murder-of-the-week mystery, the series starred Lyonne as Charlie Cale, a woman who has the extraordinary ability to tell when somebody is lying. On the run from a casino boss, she hits the road and travels across the country in her '69 Plymouth Barracuda, with each stop leading to an encounter with a new cast of characters and strange crimes she is compelled to solve.

I call bullshit! Loved it and the character was basically written for her. I'm all about Peter having his own show, it just doesn't need to be this one.

I really don't care what kind of a person Dinklage is in real life--we're not talking about real life people here. The fact is the guy is super talented, and I watch everything that he stars in. I agree with Plop--shop it around but as is--don't change up the characters because then it just becomes a different show. Bring Dinklage in--definitely! He can work side by side with Charlie Cale. I think the two of them together could be really hillarious and do great things. Lyonne is too valuable to the show to write off.

I'm the actual Plop who has been posting here for years. AKA The Plopster. I'm not sure who this fake plop is, but this is the second time I've seen him on this site. Fake plop, please come up with a different name. I've been here as Plop for about 4 or more years.
I don't like the idea of the show being changed. I think Peter Dinklage is extremely talented. I haven't seen anything with him where he didn't shine, most recently in Dexter. I'm not too keen on his prevention of other little people getting work, which many dwarves complained about him doing. Check out what Hornswoggle has to say about Peter Dinklage. But anyways, yeah, I think Dinklage is highly talented, even if he's a douche in real life.
That said, I don't want a reboot featuring him and not having Charlie. She was the reason the show was good, even though it was very weird she walked into a different murder every week. If you look past that anomaly, the show was entertaining. Sad that it's gone, but if you want to shop it around, shop it around as is, not with a major casting change. Have Dinklage as a different character with Charlie, that's fine, but keep Charlie in the mix.

@ T...You don't see a lot of little people on shows or movies because Dinklage throws a fit when other little people are given a chance. He says they're being exploited as if defending them but in reality, he wants all those roles to go to him. He is a selfish little person and takes roles away from other little people. FACT!!

After Season 2's dud, I knew the writing was on the wall for this to end. Season 1 was new and interesting, something fun, Season 2 just fell off a cliff, like the ending.

Was waiting for season 3. Loved it.

I thought the premise was entertaining, I loved season one, season 2 had a few struggles in stories. It was not the hard watch that Russian Doll was which I only watch because of Natasha Lyonne - maybe it will get picked up on another streamer maybe CW. Natasha Lyonne makes the show work, Peter Dinklage is great just do not think I would watch is Charlie Cale is replaced.

Just like another recent cancellation Countdown don't the people making these shows know showing animals being killed is a bad idea especially a child joyfully brutally killing one.

@T.. moron...
> "Do you see a lot of little people in movies and shows"
That is my point, fool. He gets work because he LOOKS different, not because he's some great actor, he is not.
