And I am struck by how much more sympathetic I am to Skyler White this go around.
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.

Bull shite
Do you even understand the show?
There's a massive easter egg that represents this "Grey Matter"
Every single situation in life is grey, there is no black and white. Everything is subjective.

That's nowhere near true, at least with me. There are numerous examples of Skylar sucking on the show, and none of them have anything to do with misogyny.
Also, people "cheering for" Walter would also admit that he is a crazy monster. It's not a black and white issue...there's always some gray with just about everything on the show. You love Walt, then you hate him, and back and forth. That's one reason the show was so great...they made you like a completely unlikable guy. But liking him sometimes doesn't mean that you don't think he's a monster.

First time watching and now re-watching it, Hank was and is my favorite character.
Very underrated how smart he is (or was ).
