Susan Rovner, president of entertainment content for television and streaming at NBCUniversal, recently spoke regarding the show’s renewal for a second season (via Variety): ““Poker Face is one of those rare, undeniable shows that we all fell in love with from the start, but the critical acclaim and viewer response was beyond our wildest dreams.
“Working with the creative genius of Rian Johnson, Natasha Lyonne and Ram Bergman, along with our partners at MRC and T-Street, has been a spectacular ride. We can’t wait to hit the road for another season as we continue to build momentum around Peacock’s original slate.”
