    Nah, Anna Gunn did a really good job making me absolutely hate her character. The only comparable I have is the guy who did Ramsey in got.

    I still don't know why people hated Skyler in Breaking Bad, but that's a whole other conversation.

    I'm not sure that's the minority. Her acting seems kinda polarizing straight down the line

    People that hate Skyler are the weirdos that wanted Walter to get away with it all and win in the end.

    Ryder and Anna Gunn are completely different situations. People are saying Ryder's performance wasn't good whereas people were personally attacking Anna Gunn I believe.

    My favorite part of the show is that it's true to physics. Brian Greene is one of my favorite scientists and to see his work interpreted so nicely and accurately is great.

    Some stories aren't about likable people. Does t make them any less great

    I don't think you have to like characters in a movie or television show to enjoy watching them.

    Aside from the previous two answers, it was because every time I'd express my feelings about the show to a fan, they insisted I keep watching because it would get better

    I should add that I essentially binged the series over the course of 2-3 weeks well after the show ended.

    Maybe it's just me, but I have to sympathize with at least some character to keep watching. And I certainly sympathized with Walter White at the beginning of the series and then my focus turned elsewhere.

    For sure, I understand that, I just disagree.

    Look at Mad Men. All but maybe one or two characters are despicable people, but it's one of the greatest shows of all time and I love it.

    Oh yeah. For sure. The music played an integral part. Never had heard of the band before though.

    Yeah people went out of their way to call Anna ugly/bad actress which neither were true.

    I agree. Something about her delivery in this kind of left me unimpressed for some reason. I don't know. I just couldn't buy into her as much as I wanted to.

    Man, I thought this the entire time. He looks a lot like Arnie Grape. It had a lot to do with that greasy mop hair, I think. Retarded face too, kind of.
    I was actually hoping Steve would show up at the house and get eaten by the monster, to be honest. This guy was such a tool the entire season.

    Haaaaaate Steve. Useless vapid one dimensional character. Only there to serve as contrast to Jonathan.

    I hated his two cronies more. Esp the one dude.
