Why did they have to make her so unlikable? I understand that you need characters like her for a certain types of shows to work. I get that. But I literally cannot stand her. I’m re watching the show and I literally leave the room or just skip through scenes she is in. Some of her writing almost feels deliberate and intentionally written to piss off viewers because they know people don’t like her. Well, you got me guys. Worked on me. You created an unbareable character that is so polarizing with her annoying dialogue that I simply skip parts of your television show upon rewatching.

It was completely unintentional, too. Anna Gunn blamed all he character's hate on misogyny.
>>
>>219301263
>Why did they have to make her so unlikable?
For the gritty realism. Annoying wives exist.
>>
>>219301263
Only a small boy wouldn't understand what a real woman is like.

Are you a small boy?
>>
>>219301263
She looks like a tranny here. Not a very flattering picture.

Gilligan wanted a bitch wife to make walts transformation more understandable to a general audience. He based her after his wife (or gf?) at the time which became known around Hollywood so he had to pretend everyone else was crazy for thinking it
>>
What did she do wrong besides sleep with her boss and give him money?
>>
>>219301263
They didn't. You juts hate women
>>
>>219301263
Nothing about her is unlikable. Walt is the annoying one. I stopped watching the show after he killed Gus and then the next seasons started and this bald idiot hadn't died of cancer yet.
>>
>>219302041
Smoked while pregnant
The talking pillow
>>
>>219302041
Smoking while pregnant. Giving Ted money wasn’t even wrong since Saul agreed with it, it was to protect her family from the IRS.
>>
>>219302041
Be shrill
>>
it reminds people of their mums being nagging bitches when they were 9 and wanted to do things their own way.
>>
>>219301263
She's the most evil character on the show. That's her role. And the only "good guy" on the show is her son
>>
>>219302082
They're both annoying as fuck and unlikable. The show shines mostly through the side charcters. That's why they made a whole spinoff about them.
>>
>>219302272
> evil for not wanting her family to be slaughtered by the cartel
Lol
>>
>>219302041
She was a control freak
>>
>>219302041
She was a miserable cunt the whole show. She bulldozes over Walt constantly and that birthday handjob in the first episode is fucking tragic.
>>
>>219302766
Walt deserved it
>>
>>219301263
If anyone cares, they brought her back for the new Legacy of Kain game and all she did was lore dump because the story sucked so bad and gave her character nothing to do. I only mention it because I thought it was kind of funny.
>>
>>219301263
Get this bitch off my screen, I wanna see Betsy Kettleman!
>>
>>219301357
And she’s right. No man could be displeased with a woman, real or fake, without it being due to misogyny.
>>
>>219303337
Im ok with being the biggest misogynist of all time

Imagine marrying a roastie that settled down instead of your rich college gf.

"Smartest person i've ever met" my ass.
>>
Skylarfags are disingenuous cunts. You're absolutely correct in identifying her as an irredeemable cognitohazard of a character.
>>
>>219303549
You'll have to fight me for the title, girlbrains.
>>
>>219301263
I despise foids but i don't hate her, how she reacted to everything was completely normal and understandable.
>>
>>219304004
You are literally only saying this because you find her attractive maybe
>>
>>219301263
She looks like an older version of my ex gf. I cant look at her. Still hurts
>>
>>219301357
It came from the part of the Breaking Bad fanbase that was single guys.

You never hear married men BB fans complain about Skylar. All the hate comes from single guys, who have no idea about family life.
>>
>>219304151
Not really, she looks like Woody Harrelson if he trooned out
>>
>>219304253
Right? She acts like the average american mother
>>
probably some sort of female/beta male scripwriter buzzkill instinct. they sense the plot is getting good, that the boys are having too much fun, and feel compelled to drag things down like it's a moral imperative.
>>
>>219301263
She isn’t unlike able. Just right.
>>219302041
Been a while since I’ve watched but wasn’t giving the money the right play that Saul said to do because it would have exposed Walt to further examination
>>
>>219304253
>>219304325
This isn't sending the message you think it is.
>>
>>219304253
>>219304325
I am a married American father. You fellas are in some shifty relationships. You have my sympathies.
>>
Dude, she is your average white woman. That's how most of them are. You want someone chill to marry a Latina; they will bury a corpse with you and then have dinner by 6.
>>
They should have done what they did in old James Bond movies and dubbed her over with a woman with a nicer voice.
https://youtu.be/n6rv6RO9ZFY
I think it would have gone a long way to fix her.
>>
>>219301263
She was so selfish about Walt’s cancer too. When Walt was first diagnosed and everyone found out, she wanted SO BADLY for everyone to feel pity and feel bad for her instead of Walt. She couldn’t handle the fact that Walt didn’t seem to care too much about his disease and be content with his morality. People felt bad and pitied him, and he didn’t give a shit. It enraged her and she wanted people to feel bad for her because her husband had cancer, and all of the pity and sorrows her husband received were pretty much void to Walt and Skylar felt that all sympathy should be redirected to her.
>>
>>219301263
Forget Tuco, Gus, or the nazis. Skylar was the show final boss Walter had to dealt with
>>
>>219302853
For what? Why did he deserve to be treated like shit before he even did any crime?
>>
>>219301263
She has a really annoying face too.
>>
>>219304253
I don't think I ever hear anything at all from married men. Aren't they working 12 hours a day and then breeding with their wife for the rest of the day?
>>
>>219301263
I'm a vegan and even I refuse to eat plant-based bacon. It's like the one thing they can't seem to get right. Making him eat that on his fiftieth birthday of all days was fucking insane. It seems like the most blatant fuck you possible.
>>
>>219301263
Literally perfect casting for the bitch girl boss wife lmao
>>
>>219303210
>Betsy Kettleman
I've never watched Better Call Saul and it's mainly because of the people who watch it and say it's better than Breaking Bad. The people I see saying it's good are simply people whose opinions I don't value. I feel like it's porn for old conservative guys who all see themselves as Mike. On that note, Mike is a really unbearable character and the fact that people like him so much makes him even worse. I did see one clip of Better Call Saul on YouTube where he shows up to this kind of meetup in a parking lot without bringing a guy. One of the guys is like "If you're so tough then prove it" and Mike quickly knocks him out or something. What the fuck is the purpose of not bringing a guy to a situation like that? Just to prove you're tough? Who fucking cares. I wish he had died because he thought he was too cool to bring a gun instead of getting killed by Walt.
>>
>>219301263
youre obviously underage, plenty of faggots like you defended her the whole time and got buttmad that Walter ends up winning in the end

I wasnt single when I watched the show, and even my wife told me she was retarded for acting the way she did.things and then we had long talks about what she would do if I was a drug king pin.

Skyler's ultimate downfall was being smart, but not smart enough, she was a midwit, and midwits fuck things up for real smart people.
>>
>>219302041
Skyler was evil in a cowardly, snivelling way
Walt was evil in a brave, audacious way

Simple as
-Bosh
>>
>>219301263
Yeah, hating her more than the literal torturers and murders in this show is brown-coded
>>
Even if Skyler is unlikeable Anna Gunn was a great actress in it and never deserved the hate she got for playing her character as written
>>
>>219310142
There is a difference between the morality of a character and their entertainment value. A character who is supposedly 'good' has higher standards for their behavior than one off episode of the week villain characters.
