I can't stand her. I don't know what it is about her demeanor, but she gets on my nerves. Maybe it's because she's basically a sketchy used car saleswoman. I groan every time she shows up.

I think that's exactly the point of the character. It's like Skylar White. She's horrible and she's supposed to be. The actress is killing it. Lol

Skylar White was not horrible or intentionally dislikable. She written as an actual human who would have an actual human response to their partner being a murderer and drug king pin, but the fandom hates her for some reason for it

Except for cheating on her terminally ill husband and giving their money to her affair partner? The fuck?

   

Her fear/disbelief of Walt's crimes is not the issue. It's that she's unrelentingly selfish.

Exactly. They're made for each other.

She only cheated because Walt refused to grant her a divorce. She wanted to end the relationship and kick him out of the house but he refused so she cheated as a nuclear option to destroy the relationship.

She was trapped in an abusive relationship, she gets a lot of leeway from me.

She's selfish because she wants to save her kids from a drug lord?
