Re-watching Breaking Bad (possible spoilers)

And I am struck by how much more sympathetic I am to Skyler White this go around. I thought she was an unreasonable bitch the first go around but for some reason I view her completely differently watching again.
And watching again confirms that Hank and Ehrmantraut are my favorite characters on the show. I also believe them to be the most all-around intelligent; even above Walt and Gus.
Anyone else had changes in opinions after watching this show through again?

She obviously does some super bitchy things (cheating on her husband, first and foremost), but I mean honestly if this wasn't a TV show and was real life...how should she supposed to be acting? With all the information she has and what she's dealing with, with 2 kids mind you, what is she supposed to do? She's a beyotch because her husband put her in an incredible awful situation. I certainly don't blame her for that.

I am rewatching the series as well. One thing I've noticed is how dark Walt is from the start. The first time watching I thought it grew gradually and at the beginning he was completely pure. Watching a second time shows me otherwise. Right off the bat he's dark.

I never hated Skylar watching the show the first time.

The hate for her was always nothing more than adolescent misogyny. In real life, nobody would be cheering on a person like Walt if they were friends with that family. They would be cursing him for a monster. Since it's TV, though, we get all of this "Team Walt" stuff, even though Hank is CLEARLY the person you would be pulling for in real life.

I wouldn't say they were more intelligent than Walt and Gus. Instincts and luck played a large part in Hanks successes. He was a great cop. Mike was a great fixer. All great characters.

Maybe Gus, but not Walt. Hank caught Walt by chance, not because of his investigative work. Without Leaves of Grass being left in the bathroom, Hank isn't close to suspecting Walt.
