The sharp, chummy world Horgan creates here would make a terrific binge session. Honestly, if it meant I could spend more time in their warmly murderous clutches, I’d watch the Garvey girls go after the Road Runner next.
The more you get to know J.P., the more you'll want to see him dead. ... If you’re smart, you’ll tag along for the ride. Few things are more satisfying than a guilt-free guilty pleasure. [29 Aug - 11 Sep 2022, p.6]
Beyond the smart construction and tart dialogue, especially in the episodes (four of 10) written or co-written by Horgan, “Bad Sisters” succeeds because the five lead actresses convince us that they’re a family unit, sometimes for worse but mostly for better.
One of Horgan’s best, Bad Sisters manages to be both a clever murder-mystery and a hilarious farcical comedy, played by an absolutely killer cast.
All the actors playing the Garvey sisters are excellent, and they make the sometimes prickly, but always loving, five-way family rapport endlessly enjoyable to watch.
It’s a good show, and an impressive entry into Horgan’s filmography, which by now includes a number of stories about thorny, complex family dynamics. It offers gutsy humor, great performances, and a deeply interesting premise about the persistent, inexplicable success of terrible men and the strength and savvy of the women who put up with them – until they don’t.
Bad Sisters is never boring. With so many moving parts, there’s always some fresh detail to be unearthed in flashbacks or some new scheme for the characters to cook up and execute. ... Yet in the seven hours sent to critics, Bad Sisters feels slightly less than the sum of its parts.
