Sharon Horgan's darkly funny thriller was only meant to run for one series, but the Garvey sisters are still impossible not to root for second time around
Sharon Horgan's darkly funny thriller was only meant to run for one series, but the Garvey sisters are still impossible not to root for second time aroundis an anomaly. Though it was only ever intended as a one-off, Apple TV+ granted a second series just a month after the first ended in 2022. An unexpected second act might have been a poisoned chalice for) would mean venturing into entertaining, if uneven, territory.
Freed from JP, the sisters have moved on: Grace is getting remarried, Eva is sober and has a “menopause coach”, Bibi is shacked up with a nice guy named Joe. But as the series opener suggests – the sisters huddled on a cliff edge around something suspiciously body-shaped – things are once again about to get very dark indeed.Grace has barely been married two minutes to the impossibly lovely Ian when her idyllic new life starts to unravel.
While the first series managed to be both a rollicking revenge fantasy and a nimble dissection of female trauma, the second explores the idea that emotional damage doesn’t die as easily as people do. However, it is bogged down by the necessity to find another convincing caper to deliver its signature dark humour and shocking violence without the monstrosity of JP as a focal point.
