Showtime's 'House of Lies' Ending Series In Cuba

HAVANA, CUBA (CBS SF/AP) – No kidding, "House of Lies" is going out in grand style.

The Showtime comedy is wrapping its five-season run with a finale filmed entirely on location in Havana. This marks the first time an American scripted series has been shot in Cuba since the restoration of diplomatic relations, according to Showtime, which made the announcement on Tuesday.

The episode, titled "No Es Facil" ("It's Not Easy"), premieres June 13.

"House of Lies" has centered on the hijinks of high-flying management consultants played by Don Cheadle and Kristen Bell as they manipulate and fleece their well-heeled clients.

While viewers may miss that show, they won't be without Kristen Bell very long. She will be back in the fall co-starring with Ted Danson in NBC's new comedy "The Good Place."
