So Mike, what do you think of The Wire? I'm considering checking it out after I finish up BB. I've been told that it was a phenomenal show, never really looked into it myself. I hear better things about The Sopranos. Literally not one person has ever told me that they didn't like that show, just like Breaking Bad. Watch true detective. Mike I think it's right up your alley. Such a amazing show. Freaking dark as hell. It's too new for your library soon but when it's available you should watch it too. Mcconahey is just amazing in this. Best performance of his haven't seen it but I feel like its way better than his Dallas buyers club performance |

Yeah, I really don't understand how you guys can make her the guilty party here. Everything that happened happened because of Walt's decisions. She stayed because she loved Walt and believed him when he said that he was trying to get out, didn't want to be forced to testify against him, and didn't want to throw Junior's life into upheaval (though I find the last reason to be the weakest). Regardless, she didn't stay because of the money. I have no idea where you're even getting that, it's made abundantly clear throughout the entire series that Skylar wants Walt to STOP producing meth. LOL bull. She is all set to leave until she finds out how much money there is. She's not stupid. She knows if she sticks around Walt has no reason to stop making meth. I have no idea how you could NOT think she stuck around because of the money. |

Alright, I'll entertain your argument. Point out three scenes where Skylar buys something for herself or otherwise demonstrates a personal desire for Walt's money.

She "loves" Walt so much that she cheats on him and instead of being understanding about a dying man going through some weird behavior, she badgers him about it and makes herself a pain in his ass, because that's how you support your dying husband emotionally. *eyeroll*

The Wire is $#@!ing stupid wow, when you're wrong, you're wrong in a big way. I'm sorry, I should have said "The Wire is nothing more than an extended Left Wing political rant, and the creator himself admitted as much in interviews, though he referred to it as a 'conversation' which is an interesting term for something that occurs when only one person is allowed to 'speak' but whatever... and therefore is $#@!ing stupid." Sorry, I don't have enough white guilt to give a $#@! about a show like that. |

Actually she was badgering him before she knew about the meth. And cheating on him. |

You mean the money that Walt keeps hiding/losing? The money she gave to Ted? Yes, the money that she gave to Ted to keep herself out of prison. Can you point out a few scenes where she buys something for herself or otherwise demonstrates a personal desire for it? |

That's an incredible understatement. Because, of course, by the time she cheats on him he hasn't become a meth producing killer who has told her that he isn't leaving their house and taunted her inability to turn him in to the police. She's just a dirty bitch for not understanding all of Walt's innocent quirkiness. Maybe she was wrong to cheat on him but he gave her every reason to. |

dying husband who put their safety in serious danger. Actually she was badgering him before she knew about the meth. And cheating on him. No. She cheated on him several episodes after she found out about the meth. |

Well that just makes her stupid, but I guess that's a whole other argument. Tell me again why, in your opinion, she didn't just turn Walt in right away? |
