You can have a reasoned discussion about it, but what Skyler did was guilt-tripping and didn't address the fact that Walter should have the last say on whether or not he wants to undergo a long, painful cancer treatment with a low chance of survival and bankrupt his family in the process. I'm not saying that Walter's a saint or a better person than Skyler, but even bad people should have the right to make their own healthcare decisions.

Exactly this. And I do not think you can blame people for this having rubbed them the wrong way, and given a bad impression of her character early on. I mean, in a show where you basically know it's a show about criminals, there's certain tropes you expect. But often the interpersonal relationships make them interesting people, or make you wonder if they can be redeemed. However, Skyler really feels like a toxic person in her interpersonal relationships. Regardless of what kind of person Walter is, I still think she's a horrible wife and partner.

Eh, I wouldn't go so far as to say horrible.

I mean, you've got to take into account the type of people in the relationship with her.

[deaalmon]

Just cause she doesn't win the award for worst person in the relationship doesn't mean that she's not horrible.

It doesn't make Skyler a horrible, irredeemable bitch worthy of hate, which is what many in this thread are asserting. It makes her a complex person that closely resembles a real human, which is what the show is about, I thought.

he did have the last say though. Watch the scene again. She tried to convince him to go through chemo and then he made that speech about how he wanted to LIVE before he died (and I cried) then the next morning he woke up, went downstairs and kissed her and said he'd get the treatment anyway. (and I cried again.)

she wanted him to do what she wanted him to do, yeah. But she DIDN'T try and ~take the decision away~ from him, it was a discussion. And when he made that speech, she didn't push. He changed his mind on his own.
