Like I don't even think it's the show at this point. Idk. Maybe it's my own bias reading into this, but to me it seems like the show is trying to show what a monster Walter is. But the fandom doesn't understand that sometimes the protagonist of a show isn't a good guy? So they root for ~poor Walt~ anyway?

IDK IDK.

I don't understand this fandom from what I've seen of it in the tumblr tags thus far.

oh yeah, there's definitely a problem with the viewing audience not getting it. my usually whip smart boyfriend doesn't like skyler (although not really in the insane way the trolls hate her) and doesn't quite get that walter is the bad guy.
fauxkaren 4th-Feb-2013 08:37 pm (UTC)
It's just like... I honestly do not understand how someone watches this show and walks away from it thinking that Skyler is a bitch. I feel like I'm watching a different show from everyone else. How do people not understand that Skyler is a victim of her husband's awfulness and she's just trying to figure out how to do what is best for her kids?

lol the biggest excuse i hear is that ~skyler cheated~ which is hilarious considering walt put his entire family in danger of being murdered.

Skyler saying "I fucked Ted" is one of my favorite Skyler moments tbh.

Like Walter was taking all this power away from Skyler. He moved himself back into their house against her will and she couldn't really say anything without exposing Walter as a drug dealer (something she was trying to protect her kids from). So Skyler took some power back. She still had control over her own body, so she exercised that power and used her body to hurt Walter.

lol. I totally stood up and cheered for her after she said "I fucked Ted".

Maybe I'm a terrible person. ~oops~

Yes yes yes. I love when new viewers get it. The scene where the police come to their house makes me LIVID every time I rewatch. Poor Skyler is trapped by Walt reeking of smugness and that dumbass Flynn popping his mouth off and being passive-aggressive.
fauxkaren 4th-Feb-2013 09:19 pm (UTC)
I wanted Walter's head to just explode with all his smugness in that scene. FUCK HIM FOR REAL. FUCK HIM AND THE WAY HE INTIMIDATES AND MANIPULATES AND CONTROLS SKYLER. FUCK HIM WITH A RUSTY RAKE.

Tbh, I don't blame Flynn quite as much just because he's still pretty young and Walter is a master of manipulation and he's manipulating the way that Flynn views things (cause Flynn really knows jackshit about what is going on) and is buying him off with cars and that kind of stuff.

Man, I just like to think he's old enough that he would understand that his mother must have a good fucking reason for kicking his terminally ill father out of the house. I also can't with him resorting to calling his mom a bitch every time he's the slightest bit displeased with her.
