Yeah, exactly. The viewers are cheering on Walt and Skyler is the bump in the road, the unfun bitch yelling at the kids to stop having fun.

I mean, the showrunners also had Skyler do all sorts of shady things to make her seem "complicated". It was an attempt to make her interesting next to Walt but basically it just removed whatever sympathy viewers might have for a person in her situation.

I was never sure if she was intentionally written that way as a speed bump to Walter's story or if we're supposed to be so invested in Walter's life that we're seeing Skyler as he starts to see her. When she's on his side he loves her but if she second guesses him his love turns to hate. We're watching this all happen through Walter's eyes without every being shown an unbiased view of whats going on between them.
