Skyler was the worst person in the series
Edit: I should Clarify, I meant worst to watch. Not the worst Morally
Skyler was a reasonable person in the face of her husband turning into a narcissistic thrillseeker who put his family in danger to serve his own ego.
It was frustrating to watch the conflict but she was not a bad character.
Wrong! You are pregnant/postpartum. Your husband with cancer starts doing weird out of character shit even going missing. Only to find out he was making meth?! If anything she wasn't angry enough!
Yeah i agree. My hot take: she acted accordingly and the audience was biased towards walter
Ehhh, it's not THAT uncommon for older couples to grow some resentment. The whole boomer, "I hate my wife" DOES come from somewhere, and spiteful people that are legally bound to each other will do all sorts of stupid shit before they split.
... Though usually it's from people a little more shitty than Walt. The sort of people who turn into selfish egotists a little easier than getting a cancer diagnosis and a bag of cash. Granted, the show did a great job showing how they were both flawed and both had a touch of ego in their normal lives. Walt's just happened to explode feeding off his resentment of his old business partner, and recent success producing.
In Skyler's defense, she was staying because she was an accessory after the fact, not that she was terribly OK with it. I've definitely seen people make that level of dumb decision before, and about as big of life decisions, too, with far less payout than millions of dollars and a viable laundering scheme!
Oh absolutely, she would've still had a rough time of it even fully agreeing with the cops, which is why it's so stupid when they act like pigs.
Hank really screwed the pooch with his chance at getting Skyler over by being a cop before a family friend. After that, it was obviously a choice between two evils for her.
The choice was pretty obvious, IMO... Go with Hank, destroy the family, destroy Walt, walk into a HUGE court case, everything explodes and goes public, you get little to no money from the DEA/gov... absolute nightmare with no clear payoff. Or ... go with Walt, hope his plans that've worked out thus far under your nose continue to work out, and get millions of dollars and a life you get to define.
Definitely an obvious choice.
Absolutely agree with the edit, but she was necessary. Keeps the narrative grounded in some bullshit suburban misery, that way when the gangsters and guns show up it has the impact it deserves.
Every time shes on screen though, it signals that the excitement is over, and you best get ready for boredom.
Annoying, not worst
Being annoying is worst than being a murderer /s
on TV, in a fictional show ... yes
Nah, in reality too. I've seen horrible yet charismatic people being praise while quite annoying but overall harmless folks are hated and mistreated.
Ultimately, people care much more about what affects their own life than what affects others'. A murderer might be doing objectively worse things, but to someone not affected by those killings, someone who is annoying them will occupy a greater space in their brain, and get a bigger reaction.
Yep, exactly that.
Worse than the psychopath Nazi who shoots a kid and a single mother in the face???
Nope, Not even by a country mile
Why?
The husband going through Cancer turns drugs dealer and in his spiral, so she's really a victim right? But as the story is progressing, you see her cheat on her husband, gave away the money he risked so much for, used their kids as weapons against him emotionally, use his money and try to take control of his operation.
She's the worst because she's never committed fully. (I will admit I am biased against those who cheat though. She is an annoying character).
You can't even say the drug dealers and killers are the worst because you get what you expect. You know you can't trust them.
