It’s been two years since audiences were introduced to the Garvey sisters in Apple’s “Bad Sisters,” created by Sharon Horgan, Dave Finkel, and Brett Baer — two years since Eva (Horgan), Ursula (Eva Birthistle), Bibi (Sarah Greene), and Becka (Eve Hewson) conspired to kill their sister Grace’s (Anne-Marie Duff) husband, only for him to turn up dead under mysterious and unplanned circumstances. Season 2 premieres November 13 with two episodes, to answer burning questions as well as to raise new ones. How much does Grace’s daughter really know? How have the sisters healed since the death of “the prick”? Will the police get involved this time and actually uncover the murder? Are Becka and Matt (Daryl McCormack) still together? But before all that, let’s review the key plot points in “Bad Sisters” Season 1.

wears most of his day-to-day awfulness on his sleeve; casual misogyny, condescension, emotional manipulation, homophobia — hiding it all behind an oily, pleasant smile and getting away with treating other people like crap. But as the Garvey sisters plot his murder, the show reveals deeper, worse layers. We’ll go more into his specific attacks on Grace’s sisters, but remember when he didn’t like the neighbor being friendly with Grace? J.
P. called the police and anonymously accused the man of being a child molester! After an argument with his father, J.P.
stoo.
