    For me it was Skyler, I know she’s not supposed to be likeable but that doesn’t excuse it for me.

    I hate her character and she makes the show just unpleasant for me.

    I did finish breaking bad though, about it being the best show of all time is not something I agree with. it’s alright

      I hated Skyler the first time I watched it. The second time through, I felt a lot more sympathy for her character.

        Nice, she’s been the reason I never attempted a rewatch. Maybe I should give it a try

      I think Skyler is pretty universally disliked. I thought the kid was annoying too which pretty much undermines the whole premise of the show.

        I didn’t mind the kid too much, I think it helps the plot because it becomes easier to see that for Walter it’s all about his ego

        His kid also contrasts Jesse who’s basically the child Walter always wanted, witty and smart in ways Walter isn’t.
