Created by Brett Baer, Dave Finkel (both producer-writers on New Girl, United States of Tara) and Sharon Horgan for Apple, though based on a Belgian TV show. Four Irish sisters conspire to kill the husband of their fifth sister who is an absolute arsehole who richly deserves being killed. Unfortunately their attempts keep going wrong in blackly comic turn of events. To complicate things, an insurance investigator becomes obsessed with them.
Sharon Horgan, Anne-Marie Duff, Eva Birthistle, Sarah Greene, Eve Hewson (Bridge of Spies, The Knick), Claes Bang, Brian Gleeson (son of), Yasmine Akram, Daryl McCormack, Jonjo O'Neill, Peter Coonan, Michael Smiley (Spaced). Produced for Apple.
But... ten hours? Thus you get a long episode in which the eye-patched one works up to shooting him at a paintball game, but misses, and nothing much else happens.
Still, blackly funny, e.g. episode when they try and drug him. Claues Bang must get some award as the Man You Want To Kill - he's just so ... horrible (thus, good writing. And acting).
