Poker Face Recap: Rat Catcher
The Everybody’s Live boys star in Poker Face’s version of The Departed (with Rhea Perlman in the Frank Costello role).
Rhea Perlman manages to pack the appropriate amount of menace and humor into her five feet, and Natasha Lyonne plays off her perfectly, conveying the resignation of someone who is tired of running (and who very recently escaped a near-cremation). When Luca warns his informant not to muck up the plan with bad acting, Jeffrey shares his background in regional theater, including roles in Into the Woods and the “criminally underrated” (true!) • In my recap of the season premiere, I pointed out that the repeated arrival of Beatrix’s goons could grow tired fast, but I didn’t expect Poker Face to abandon the storyline so quickly.
