Here’s everything you need to know about the show worth signing up to Apple TV+ for alone!
What is Bad Sisters on Apple TV+ about?
The show follows the five Garvey sisters who are closely bound by the early death of their parents and a promise to always protect each other.
But when one of the sisters, Grace, gets involved with a scary and abusive man, what lengths will the Garveys go to in order to protect their sister?
When John Paul, Grace’s partner, is mysteriously found dead, the agents in charge of his life insurance payout are immediately suspicious of the sisters.
As the show takes us six months earlier, are the Garvey sisters guilty of exactly what it seems they are?
With a mix of dark comedy and crime drama, it’s a great concept for an easy binge-watch!
