Bad Sisters is the breakout Apple TV+ hit now in its second season .

The show's black comic tone won over critics and viewers in its first outing as the bumbling Garvey sisters plotted to murder John Paul .

The more I've watched this second season of Bad Sisters , the more perplexed and annoyed I've felt at its very existence.

It's easy to see this season of Bad Sisters as the third sibling of Broadchurch and Big Little Lies .

But, just like both of those shows, Bad Sisters feels as if it has lost its way in its second outing.

It’s much harder for a black comedy to keep things relatively light when its primary source of grief is for someone whose name is literally Grace .
