Skyler is definition of 'passive agressiveness'

I'm rewatching the show and it makes me cringe to see how horrific Anna's 'character' is. People keep defending Skyler by saying 'walt kept secrets from her' and similar bullsh*t, but the truth is: Skyler is just a passive agressive b*tch, she also has secrets (smokes while she's pregnant, has an affair..), but Walt can't have any.. Walt is dying in 2 years, any decent wife would give him some space, but skyler doesnt give in even a little. Everytime something happens skyler becomes a drama queen and that's disgusting to watch.
I'm not gonna talk about skyler's looks, it doesnt help the character to be ugly, but in skyler's case uglyness is the least unpleasant trait.
For people saying, Anna is just a good actress and able to act something so cringe-worthy, i say - Noone is that good an actor, I believe Anna Gunn IRL is similar to skyler and that's what's wrong with humanity :)

How the hell do they have issues? What you're a doctor now? STFU. It's called an opinion idiot.

Don't know what show you've seen, but Skyler is not passive at all. Totally the opposite. Every time she fully assumes an active role facing problems: Walt's illness, money, Walt's behavior, Beleke's accounts, etc.

She is a strong fighting woman whose family is everything in her life, an old-school lady, who most men would love to have as a wife, friend or mom. I suppose weak men would highly dislike her due to feeling her as as threat.

I'm just watching the show for the first time, halfway through season 2,and I feel the same. Plus, the crazy eyes. Styler is a good part of the reason that drove Walt to vent his frustrations in criminal actions. Like , when he gives the gun to Jesse, asking him to "deal" with the junkies, that's really Walt sticking it to Skype. I really have no sympathy for any of the characters, all of them are anti-heroes.

I think the same way. It is one of the only situations where the audience would have fully and instantly forgiven the main charactor for murdering his wife.

I thought maybe she was just really good at that charctor, but has she ever had any facial expresssion other than total evil miserable bitch?
