Apple TV+ Renews 'Bad Sisters' for Second Season
Apple TV+ has officially renewed its darkly comedic murder mystery Bad Sisters for a second season. Given the amount of critical acclaim (and, more importantly, the steadily increasing word-of-mouth buzz) this series has picked up over the course of its run this move isn't terribly surprising. But it does raise some crucial questions about what kind of story a Season 2 of Bad Sisters might be able to tell.
Created and developed by Emmy nominee Sharon Horgan (Catastrophe), the series is technically a remake of Malin-Sarah Gozin's Belgian series Clan. The ten-episode first season follows the sisters of the Garvey family, who come together to decide what to do about their eldest sibling's cruel husband, whom they all refer to in private as "The Prick." But when he turns up dead, the women find themselves under investigation by a pair of desperate life insurance agents determined to prove malicious intent so that they can avoid a large payout.
What really happened to The Prick and which, if any, sisters were involved in his death are spoilers worth avoiding until you can watch the show yourselves, but the series' first outing ends in such a way that might leave you wondering what, precisely, is left for a second season to accomplish. (Other than simply allowing us to watch a group of fabulous actresses keep working together.)
