About Bad Sisters

Bad Sisters is an Apple TV+ dark comedy thriller that premiered in 2022, co-created by and starring Sharon Horgan and based on the Flemish series Clan. Set in Ireland, it follows the five tight-knit Garvey sisters, who are bound by the promise to always protect one another. When the monstrous, controlling husband of one of them turns up dead, the story unspools in two timelines: the murky circumstances of his death, and the sisters' increasingly desperate schemes to free their sibling from him while he was alive.

The series braids pitch-black comedy with genuine pathos, building suspense around an insurance investigation closing in on the family even as flashbacks reveal exactly why so many people wanted 'The Prick' gone. It is a story about sisterhood, abuse, loyalty, and the lengths love will go to.

Anchored by a superb ensemble — Horgan, Anne-Marie Duff, Eve Hewson, and a chilling Claes Bang — Bad Sisters became one of Apple TV+'s most acclaimed series.
