“Bad Sisters” is incredibly funny, brilliantly written, brilliantly acted and directed, and so intelligent and so human – both good and bad – that it immediately stands out
Having seen Sharon Horgan in the series “Catastrophe”, I have such respect and admiration for her writing, comedy and acting that I will watch anything she is involved in. There is no real violence, no car crashes, no special effects, it’s all very human, real drama and agony of what people do to each other, smoothed out by funny circumstances and comedy.
I love this show
John Paul, the cruel husband of one sister, also known to all the sisters as “Jerk”, is written and played so wonderfully and diabolically that I don’t know if I’ll ever see this actor in anything else again and I don’t hate him. He’s so bad in such a banal role.
Two minutes of him constantly calling his wife “mommy”
honestly, it’s just frustrating because it’s so realistic that you want to kill him yourself or watch him die. This show balances the fine line between comedy, drama and tragedy so perfectly that I have to give it a 10/10 rating.
