Bad Sisters chronicles the lives of the Garvey sisters: Sharon Horgan as Eva, Anne-Marie Duff as Grace, Eva Birthistle as Ursula, Sarah Greene as Bibi, and Eve Hewson as Becka. Set in Dublin, the first season explored the mysterious circumstances around the death of Grace’s abusive husband, John Paul Williams (Claes Bang). Bad Sisters depicts two timelines. The first is before John Paul’s death while the second timeline takes place after John Paul’s passing. It explores the efforts of insurance agent Thomas Claffin (Brian Gleeson) and his brother Matt (Daryl McCormack) to prove the Garvey sisters’ involvement in the death to avoid paying out Grace’s policy.

Set two years after the events in season 1, the Garvey sisters may have moved on. According to the season 2 logline, “When past truths resurface, the ladies are thrust back into the spotlight, suspicions are at an all-time high, lies are told, secrets revealed, and the sisters are forced to work out who they can trust.”

Still killing it. #BadSisters Season 2 premieres November 13.

Netflix has spent years telling the entertainment industry that binge-worthy originals and a simple user experience were enough to stay ahead. That strategy helped make it the world's biggest streaming service. But according to a Wall Street Journal report, the company is increasingly concerned about a different metric: engagement.

While Netflix continues to post healthy profits and retains one of the lowest subscriber cancellation rates in the industry, executives are reportedly seeing early signs that people are spending less time watching content. That matters because engagement - not just subscriber numbers - has become one of the biggest indicators of whether customers will stick around, watch ads, and continue paying for the service.

Microdramas are booming, and Character.AI is turning it into a two-way obsession
Watch an AI microdrama, then interrogate the characters yourself
Character.AI AI Microdramas Featured

Microdramas have already conquered the tiny vertical screen. Character.AI wants to make the experience even more immersive. The chatbot platform has launched c.ai Series, a collection of original, mobile-first microdramas created by its in-house studio. Each show consists of bite-sized vertical episodes, although watching is only half the experience. Viewers can also chat directly with the characters afterwards, revisit moments from the story, explore relationships, or begin entirely new storylines.

It is the latest attempt to blend streaming with audience participation. Netflix recently took another route with Unhinged, a horror game that turns a viewer’s phone into a controller and allows them to call during gameplay. Meanwhile, Character.AI is bringing interactivity into the fiction itself by keeping its characters available long after an episode ends.
