Who watches Breaking Bad?

I've began watching Breaking Bad, and while it's got an amazing plot and Walter's just so incredibly awesome, I seriously cannot handle Skyler. She's the biggest colossal female dog I've seen since Lori from The Walking Dead, perhaps even worse. Does anyone else feel the same way?

I don't want to spoil too much, and I'm on season 2 right now so I'm not caught up with the current events of the show. But regardless, Skyler is a complete self centered jerk who puts herself and her needs above everyone else in the entire show. Alright, I understand that she's pregnant, but she's taking it way too far and seeking way too much special treatment. The entire family is barely able to pay their bills and Walter can't even come close to paying for his cancer treatment. Even when she realized that the cancer treatment was taken care of, she had the nerve to ask for more money as if it was her right or something, to get free cancer treatment.

The worst part about the previously stated situation is that she's unemployed. She can do accounting. It's freaking accounting. Sit at a desk, no active movement. Instead, she sits at home, sleeps, takes 3 hour baths, sits around reading, etc. I've seen so many pregnant women work until a week or two until their due date. I understand if she wanted to take some time off for pregnancy, but seriously, it doesn't affect her baby at all, and the fact that she [i]smoked[/i] with a baby inside her means she just doesn't really give a crap at all. It's even worse considering her family's situation.

Then there's the most recent episode (I'll go into detail on this since it's not a big spoiler or anything) that I watched. Walter Jr. went out with his friend Louis, and Walter asked her where his son went. She said "I don't know." So Walter asks why she wouldn't know where her own son is. How does she respond? "Why should I be the only one who knows where my son is?" Alright, it's fine if you think that way, it's definitely the husband's responsibility as well. However, in this particular case, she is [i]staying home the entire time and not doing crap except reading a book, setting up a bathroom full of candles, taking a bath, heating up microwave food, and just being lazy.[/i] Yes, I would also wonder why she doesn't know where her son is, considering how much time she has on her hands.

Ugh the problems with this person just piles up so much..

I'm watching it now, just taking a break. I'm on season 3 episode 3. I'm loving it!
Also, she starts working later in season 2 to help pay off for walter's surgery/treatment.
