100% agree. I think its funny, because her character IS a bad actress too.
shareI have to disagree with you I think Sarah Goldberg as Sally is fantastic. She's self absorbed, cruel and isn't as good a actress as she think's she is but you still feel for her and she at times show's she cares for Barry in her own way.
shareNope.
At no point do I think she cares for Barry.
She's killing time and I'm cool with it.
I don't need Barry to be a women man so this chick stringing him along is fine with me.
I agree with you, I think Sarah is very good as Sally and Sally is just a horrible person and a bad actress.
Very annoying.
shareIt would be a good "twist" if Barry kills her in the future.
shareThis is the Skyler White Syndrome. Some fans didn't like some of the things Walter White's wife did on Breaking Bad and confused their repulsion toward the character with the actress who played her, Anna Gunn, despite her multiple deserved Emmy wins. After receiving a plethora of hostile mail and viral hatred on social media, Gunn actually had to pen an article defending herself against fanboys who confuse the role with the actress. Similarly, Sarah Goldberg is giving a good performance even though Sally is a manipulative, self-serving bitch who, on the available evidence, isn't a very good actress.
shareShe's the only realistic character. Everyone else is a broad, exaggerated character, which may be why you think she sticks out.
shareGood grief, Sarah Goldberg is putting on a master class in acting across all three seasons. She deserves an Emmy.
