Poker Face

Poker Face is Peacock's standout original, with a 96% Rotten Tomatoes score that outperforms #4 Rutherford Falls. Rian Johnson's throwback mystery series stars Natasha Lyonne as Charlie Caplan, a woman whose unnatural lie-detecting ability drives her cross-country, stumbling into murders. Each episode delivers a clever whodunit anchored by Lyonne's magnetic performance. With 10 episodes averaging 45 minutes each, it offers a faster-paced experience than the typical cozy mystery. This love letter to classic TV detective shows like Columbo earns its top spot by blending sharp writing with a modern, data-obsessed twist on the genre.
