Paws October 14, 2022 Share October 14, 2022 (edited) I had a feeling Grace or Blanaid did it so I’m glad it was Grace . Adding the rape storyline was unnecessary although I guess they felt they needed one last thing to make Grace snap—-I think his punch to her chest would have been enough. I like how Roger was the one to help her, otherwise it wasn’t making sense to me…she’s so tiny and the Prick is so big that she wouldn’t be able to move the body otherwise. they really used every part of the opening credits…red yarn and burning photo included.

abbyzenn October 14, 2022 Share October 14, 2022 I might be a party of one but I liked the ending - actually I liked the whole show, great mixture of humor and seriousness along with lovely scenery and good music. Thought everything wrapped up nicely. JP was such an awful person I couldn't work up any sympathy for him. Not surprised who killed him. I've never seen either the actress playing Becka or the actor playing Matt but I really liked both of them. Somehow I thought the actress just looked perfect as Becka and Matt just looked perfect. 4 10 Link to comment

I think it had to be a revelation about something heinous he did to one of her sisters. This show was really about the bond between the five of them and the lengths they'd go to in order to protect each other. For a long time, JP managed to stifle that instinct in Grace, but once she learned how terribly he'd hurt Eva, her love for her sister pierced the veil. 4 14 Link to comment

Avabelle October 14, 2022 Share October 14, 2022 (edited) The last episode lost me - so he raped Eva? She got pregnant and then miscarried? It doesn’t totally shock me but it just all felt very out of Nowhere and a lot of exposition to get in five minutes before the most crucial scene. I have to hand it to Grace. As useless as I found her to be for the majority of the show she’s certainly good under pressure. And all Grace had to do was withdraw the claim so overall it was a really simple fix. I don’t know, I liked the comedy of the show but found the last episode very heavy and didn’t feel very organic. Edited October 14, 2022 by Avabelle 1 2 Link to comment

The writers did not even have the decency or respect to allow Donal to find out what a Lying, Cheating, Deceiving, Adulteress His wife was huh ? Instead they make one big joke and mockery out of it all. Just content with showing him to be a unknowing , unsuspecting, ignorant Cuck, Every main character fully supports , champions, cheers, helps, eggs, urges and conceals Ursula's Disgraceful, Deviant and Abhorrent behavior . All the while laughing to each other and behind Donal's back at what a cuck/simp/beta he is made out to be . This show truly Represents ALL that is wrong in today's society. Ursula willingly, knowingly and purposefully takes a Huge Dump on Her Husband, Marriage and Children's Family unit stability. The writer's decide to make a giant JOKE of all that huh ? Yet somehow Ursula is supposed to be the hero/victim/ innocent/ wronged party and Donal is the Bad guy ? We are supposed to like her and be rooting for her right ? F'ing Seriously ? Ursula's character was an Absolute Horrible Human Being, Horrible Wife and Horrible Mother. It is simply sad, dishonest, disingenuous and Disgraceful the way the writers presented this Entire story arc. This was just yet another show that promotes, encourages, excuses, justifies, rationalizes, glorifies and Romanticizes INFIDELITY. I just cannot comprehend how anyone on this Forum or anyone that has seen this show can be Ok with that. Because we all think fake murder is worse than fake adultery.

She just continued to see him regularly and act normal for 10 years. I also couldn’t believe that Grace was grieving Eva’s rapist in front of her and didn’t have show indication that she was ever going to tell her she knew what she’d been through until She absolutely had to. It was just all very abrupt. Edited October 14, 2022 by Avabelle 2 1 1 Link to comment

aghst October 15, 2022 Author Share October 15, 2022 Horgan said she wouldn't rule out a second season. Quote It makes sense that Bad Sisters would end after just one season, but when asked if she’d consider continuing the series, Horgan didn’t shut down the idea entirely. “Well, it’s a really tricky thing. Because like you said, that’s the story. It began as a limited series, and that’s how I approached it. But everyone keeps telling me how much they love it, including our overlords,” Horgan told Decider. “So I don’t know. I guess if a really great idea came along. At the same time I’m really satisfied, really satisfied, with the way it turned out.” https://decider.com/2022/10/14/will-there-be-bad-sisters-season-2-apple-tv-sharon-horgan-interview/ If Apple threw her a lot of money, she might be tempted.

Avabelle October 15, 2022 Share October 15, 2022 Another two issues for me - did I miss a scene where Grace agreed to withdraw the claim? Don’t get me wrong it made sense but given it resolved one of the two main conflicts of the series i thought we’d have seen her go to Matt rather than him just explaining it in the end to The brother. I wish we’d gotten some sort of satisfying reveal where either Ursulas husband leaves her, they amicably split or else she realises she wants her marriage to work rather than her jsut staring glumly out at her happy family when she gets home post Ben ending things. Her storyline was unsatisfying throughout. 4 1 Link to comment
lidarose9 October 15, 2022 Share October 15, 2022 (edited) For me it would have held up better if they'd had Grace discover his secret life BEFORE her birthday, maybe confronting him about it at the cabin. And I agree the strangling would not have left cause of death undetermined. A good bonk over the head with a blunt object would have made more sense, and been easier to explain than a convoluted motorcycle accident in the middle of the night. Especially as she is so tiny and thin and we're seeing her in the flimsy white slip. It seemed like they were deliberately stripping away her emotional defenses along with her clothes. I do like the way she switched gears from being weak and passive to being protective and strong once she knew how he'd been victimizing her sisters. I can somewhat understand Eva keeping quiet about the rape, esp since she was obviously blackout drunk. They'd said repeatedly that she had a drinking problem back then. Unfortunately, I've had the experience of being so drunk I really couldn't be quite sure who did what to whom the next day, and since it was her sister's huband, she'd keep quiet. On the other hand, it felt like a very tacked on reveal to up the ante, and it wasn't needed at all. We all knew what a malignant prick he was. They were all flawed characters, none of them blameless. I didn't need them to be innocents and I was OK with their flaws. Yes, I wanted to slap the shit out of them at times, but they were flailing in an extreme situation. That's the makings of a great TV show! I hope there isn't a second season. It ruins shows like this by trying to drag out a story with tacked on drama. In the end, though I'm not 100% happy with the finale, it's a good story that worked and ended where it needed to end. Although I do hope Grace and Roger across the street get together. :) Edited October 15, 2022 by lidarose9 6 1 2 Link to comment

MicheleinPhilly October 16, 2022 Share October 16, 2022 I finally had the chance to finish this because I needed a big ass break from it. Watching JP filled me with such a visceral sense of rage, I really couldn't stomach it for much longer. I'm fine with how it wrapped up, but the denouement of Matt figuring it out was sloppy AF. First of all, none of what he discovered at the cabin could have been used in a criminal prosecution of Grace or any of the sisters. He's not law enforcement and he broke in. Second of all, if JP had been found on his motorcycle with the red rope tied to the wheel as the photo he looked at suggested, that would have been taken into evidence by the police, not thrown into the garbage. And it would have been investigated as a murder more fully from the jump. Were they trying to insinuate that Matt was just imagining the red rope tied around the wheel and his neck? We were led to believe that the elder Claffin had completely misused all of the funds paid for clients' policies and that Thomas helped him cover it up. One widow withdrawing her claim doesn't make them suddenly solvent so I'm not sure why there was such a celebratory mood between Thomas and Matt at the end. Overall, I loved the sisters' dynamic and the dark humor but I don't know that I would be in for a second series. It would depend on the storyline and I have no desire to encounter JP in flashbacks so it would have to be something entirely new and really clever. 3 2 Link to comment
aghst October 16, 2022 Author Share October 16, 2022 Yeah that DVD alone isn't evidence. There would have to be physical evidence, like Grace's DNA on the corpse or the shirt she used to strangle him would have to show his skin cells or something. Well I don't know if Irish law has similar standards on circumstantial vs. physical evidence or innocent until proven guilty standard. I also agree, the Claffin business should be bankrupt, if their father just spent the premiums instead of getting a commission while the premiums went to the insurance company. Someone else will eventually make a claim and they will have the same problem again. But they probably don't want to delve into the business. 2 Link to comment

lidarose9 October 17, 2022 Share October 17, 2022 1. Either Ursula is really really stupid or she just didn't care if anybody knew about her affair. Throughout this show, people were doing lots of really stupid things. At least once per episode, someone did something so unbelievably stupid, I would have turned off the show if I hadn't been enjoying it so much. All of them make promises they promptly break or overlook obvious red flags. We end with an innocent bystander blinded, an innocent cat dead, Minna frozen to death, Roger's life ruined, Gabriel outed, Ursula's family torn apart, Eva's career derailed... JP may be the cause, but the sisters are leaving death and destruction in their wake throughout. But then I remember the title: these are not good sisters. 2. Apparently Irish police are incredibly stupid too. 3. Did anybody understand what the pregnant wife was doing with the files? Link to comment

The story could be told in 6 or 7 episodes. Also the ending was disappointing. If it was so easy for Grace and Blanaid to go and live with Eva, then why did they risk the insurance guys to discover the truth? The ending was not satisfying because nobody paid for their mistakes except for the prick. Other than that I appreciated all the acting, the beautiful people, the nice scenery and the irish accent.

Spartan Girl November 7, 2022 Share November 7, 2022 I watched this because my friend kept saying I should…and I wasn’t feeling it. This was too dark a comedy for my taste. Was I supposed to find it funny that innocent people and animals kept getting killed instead of that miserable bastard John Paul? Even when he finally got what he deserved, I couldn’t take much satisfaction out of it. And was that part with the poor kitten necessary? There were already plenty of parts that showed what a monster John Paul was, that was just horrible. Too bad it wasn’t the daughter that killed him for that. 1 3 Link to comment

aghst November 8, 2022 Author Share November 8, 2022 (edited) Horgan was being canny. Probably she had a certain figure in mind and Apple met it. Thinking more about this, they probably wouldn't go back to some other odious character that they'd want to kill. So they could maybe create plot arcs based on the personal failings of each of the sisters. They feel bad about the guy losing his eye or Minna being killed. But "bad sisters" could now mean these personal foibles, not their homicidal plotting of season 1. It might be hard to create and sustain momentum through a season though, without a murder plot or mystery which probably helped keep up viewer interest.

scruff November 8, 2022 Share November 8, 2022 So another show that was just a Blatant example of ALL that is wrong in today's society and a show that promotes, encourages, excuses, justifies, rationalizes, glorifies and Romanticizes INFIDELITY/Adultery, gets rewarded with another season. How sad, pathetic and unfortunate. Link to comment
