The new 10-episode series follows the lives of the Garvey sisters bound together by the premature death of their parents and a promise to always protect one another. In addition to Horgan, "Bad Sisters" stars Anne-Marie Duff ("Suffragette," "The Salisbury Poisonings"), Eva Birthistle ("Brooklyn," "The Last Kingdom"), Sarah Greene ("Frank of Ireland," "Dublin Murders") and Eve Hewson ("Behind her Eyes," "The Luminaries") as the Garvey sisters.

Horgan, Faye Dorn and Clelia Mountford executive produce for Merman; and Gozin, Bert Hamelinck and Michael Sagol ("Sound of Metal") executive produce for Caviar. In addition to Horgan, Baer and Finkel, the series is written by Karen Cogan, Ailbhe Keogan, Daniel Cullen, Perrie Balthazar and Paul Howard.
