>make a wife character>make her obsessed with her husband>the only time her husband wasn't her whole life was the time she cheated on her husband, to spite him>the only time she talks with other women is to shit on her husband>she has no friends or hobbies or anything other than being the bitch wife of a shit husband>call everyone daring to hate Skyler a "misogynist"Bravo Vince!
>>214153904Misogynist.
>>214153904It really is weird how Skylar had no life outside of her family and work.No friends or hobbies or anything. Would have been nice if she had a friend, who somehow Walt had to kill sometime in S4 or S5. Kinda like the poison_brock or kill_jane moment Walt had with Jesse.
>>214153925This show wouldn't even pass the Bechdel test
>>214153941Vince wanted to make The Sopranos 2 but forgot Carmella only hated Tony for cheating on her not because he was a crimminal so her bitching was more justified plus she had friends and hobbies even if her character was obviously husband-centric.
>be crippled son>obsessed with breakfast>goes by "Flynn" >never does anything interesting or original>e-begs online and doesn't understand how embarrassing this would be for his dad>prefer Aunt's husband over your own father >can't drive a car properly because "this is easier, d-dad">handsome af and yet never has a gf>throws up over a few shots of tequilaI hate him. I'd happily trip him up if he went to my school and I wouldn't feel guilty.
>>214154181Useless character.
This actress has such a kino face, looks very historical, the opposite of iphone face
>>214154335I think Marie was hotter but I know what you mean about the historical face.
>>214153904Carmela Soprano is a good written female character and the best female character I've seen on television.
>>214154375Kim Wexler is better
>>214153904>Walt didn't blow her fucking brains out of the back of her fucking skull when he found out she cheated on himHe might've been a piece of shit drug dealer but he's a better man than me. I would've made that bitch eat a shotgun slug. Would've turned her skull into lasagna and just gave the baby to Marie to raise.
>>214154899Didn't his son hate him by then too? Fuck them both just stay in a nice hotel with all the drug money
>>214155037If Walt was fucking around on her I would have no problem with her running around sucking 1,000 cocks if she wanted...but he never stepped out on her. Literally all the bullshit he did was for the family. It's like they write this shit on shows just to piss people off.Reminds me of how Marty from Ozark just sat there and watched his wife get fucking reamed by some dude. Dude just sits there watching the shit on a laptop with his wife just smiling right in front of him. Genuinely don't know how dudes actually can put up with shit like that.If the relationship is that fucked just break up, get a divorce, move out, suck and fuck whoever you want. But they do that shit and then go suprised pikachu when a dude goes full Chris Benoit.
>>214153904She gave me clingy milf issuesShe's best girlJane a shit Andrea a shit
>>214155197>Jane a shitYou're gay if you wouldn't fuck a mid 2000s goth girl like her
>>214155169>Literally all the bullshit he did was for the familyImagine getting filtered by fucking breaking bad kek
>>2141554740/10Apply yourself next time retard.
>>214155496>he did it for his Heckin family!!! >refuses lucrative job offer and instead decides to deal literal meth
>>214155513>accepting charityA pathetic faggot like you wouldn't understand.
>>214155533>alienates his wife and son and turns them into social pariahs >kills his best friend >kills his colleagues gf>keeps doing retarded shit despite securing more than enough money >poisons colleagues gfs son>literally admits he did it for himself at the end of the show>random /tv/tard: but he did it for his family you guys!!
>>214153941Most of the middle-aged women that I know live like this. So do a lot of the men, to be desu.
>>214155590He did all of those things because he needed more money...cancer treatment is expensive and he lives in the US retard.
>>214155635Kek good bait
>>214153904She is an extremely realistic character.
>>214156507But this... Is not le realistic show
>>214154181I wanted him to get skinned alive by the cartel so bad
>>214156396Whatever you say man. I'm about to have a non-romantic breakfast if you're interested in joining me.
>>214156555Checked
>>214153941She sold stuff on eBay
The Sopranos and Breaking Bad are on opposite ends of a spectrum. The Wire is in the middle.The Sopranos has very little overarching seasonal plots; most episodes are self-contained and focus on capturing the atmosphere/vibe of the underworld. Breaking Bad, on the other hand, is the opposite: it has clearly established characters and premise, and almost every scene is dedicated to pushing the plot forward. The Wire strikes a balance between the two, it features season-long storylines, but also devotes many scenes to exploring the vibe and day-to-day realities of both the police and the criminal world.
>>214158350Woaw it’s almost like each show came after the other and inspired the next one….o_O
>>214153904>>214153941>>214154375>>214156507Yes, I also noticed that characters in BB are lacking, and Skyler is the worst of them all.>>214158431Breaking Bad is downgrade
>>214158350>The Sopranos has very little overarching seasonal plotsHave you even watched the show? Every season has an overarching antagonist for Tony to defeat, or NY/NJ issues that drive the plot forward.
>>214156507Came here for this incel post but I expected it to be the first post.
>>214153904Her sister was worse but luckily got less screen time.
>>214153904seeing her pretend to be a bimbo is what made it click for me why walt kept her around and why tim took her back in a heartbeat
the problem with Skylar isn't that she's *wrong* it's that she's a character in a tv show whose entire role in the show is complaining that the plot is happening. The audience is inherently predisposed to oppose Skylar because if she got her way the story would immediately end
>>214158723Yes. I just finished re watching season 01. There are a couple of overarching plots, like the one about Uncle Junior and FBI investigation, however, these both receive, relatively, not much time
>>214155169She didn't fuck Ted because she was horny or slutty. She did it specifically to spite her lying/criminal husband who was almost holding her hostage. She was hoping Walt would think the marriage is a lost cause and agree to a divorce. That or going to the police were her only plays.
>>214158431But Breaking Bad is clearly inferior to the other 2
>>214159483She didn't know Walt had committed any crimes at that point in the story, stupid. Moreover, she was willing to help ted commit fraud at this point so clearly criminality was not the issue.
>>214154181hey if it makes you feel better the actor will probably kill himself from irrelevance
>>214159598Actually, retard. Walter tells her he manufactures drugs in season 3 episode 1 when Skyler hands him divorce papers.Skyler tells Walt "I fucked Ted" in season 3 episode 3.
>>214158948Yeah but the issue here is that Vince, clearly too high on Sopranos mania, made Skyler in a similar vein to Camella aka a whinny wife. But it works with Carm because her issue is Tony is a cheater and that hurts her. Skyler is just angry at Walt for not being under her boot 24/7. Yes, Walt is a shit person and a shit husband but even before he could actually "break bad", Skyler was already checking his calls and harassing Jesse Pinkman, all in EPISODE 2 because she thought he was selling Walt weed. She was a bitch from the start even before Walt started acting weird and shaddy.
>>214158464Is “The Shield” like breaking bad like this regard? I’m curious where it stands between BCS/BB and Sopranos/The Wire
>>214153904I think vince learned alot from writing skylar and how he wrote Kims wexler showed it.>Does her own shit outside of jimmy>Actually gets off on the fun and fembrained petty antics>Comes up with good ideas>Is loyal af>only breaks it off with him when things actually get serious and someone diesLoved kim
>>214159681She fucked ted before she told Walt about it, stupid.
>>214159699>Yes, Walt is a shit person and a shit husbandBased on what, exactly?
>>214159772>>Comes up with good ideas>>Is loyal af>>only breaks it off with him when things actually get serious and someone diesNone of these are realistic to a woman.
>>214159801Based on his narcissism, he letting Jane die, poisoning a kid, selling meth (one of the most addictive and dangerous drugs btw), getting involved with bloodthirsty crimminals, putting Jesse and his family in danger (the cartel doesn't spare families like the mafia does btw)... Most of his kills were on self defense however, so I won't count then.Ultimately he endangeredvhis own family out of greed and a big ego. He never did it to provide to them.
>>214159778She already knew, she guesses that Walt is making drugs right to his face. She knows because Walt is a terrible fucking liar, and that Gretchen and Elliot aren't paying the medical bills.You can hate Skylar for being an annoying overbearing wife all you want. Fact is Walt let her become this way over the course of their marriage because he was a doormat of a man until he breaks bad. By all means Walt should have divorced her if she was unable to change, but he likely never even tried.However, complaining about Skyler fucking Ted like she's just slutting around is tiny minded. She did it for a specific reason, she knows her husband is lying and committing serious crimes that endanger their children and she was looking for a way to protect her and her kids..
>>214159847
>>214158868That exposed her as even more fake
>>214154181He was originally part of the comedy aspect of the show until Vince had to pivot and start playing everything straight.
>>214159233
>>214159483That’s bullshit. That’s woman rationalizing built into the plot. Well I did it because *convoluted reason where they’re absolved totally of accountability as if they just tripped and fell on the dick by mistake*.
>>214160235It is bullshit in the sense that it was a half measure in an attempt to not ruin Jr's perception of his father and still get her and the kids safely away. She should have just gone to Hank or the police.But seriously, how many times have you been cheated on? You are just ignoring so much context and acting like she just did it for fun.
>>214153941>>214158948>>214159772>SkylarGOOD MORNING SAARS
>>214160432sorry, but she's such a non character, that only autists can remember her name
>>214159233let's cool it with the misogyny
>>214155169>how Marty from Ozark just sat there and watched his wife get fucking reamed by some dude. Dude just sits there watching the shit on a laptop with his wife just smiling right in front of him.Marty literally drove to Chicago to confront the guy only to see him defenestrated from his high-rise rise apartment before he could so much as park his car, he wasn't being passivePut your fucking phone down
>>214153925>>214159233>>214160536It's not misogyny. Skylar (intended, fuck her) Mariana Schrader as shite characters
>>214155454bro she was a fucking heroin addict
>>214160721She just needed a fresh start in New Zeland
>>214159134The Uncle Junior power struggle is the driving force of the first season. Nearly all the deaths that occur are as a result of it, Tony even survives an assassination attempt because of it. Season 1 is probably an example of a season where there are the most elements of a self contained narrative because renewal wasn’t guaranteed!
