Yeah, it really threw me off when they mentioned it had been under a year in like season 4. Either way, the point was she didn't gain weight until well after the baby was born. It was definitely the actress gaining weight and not her character and was really distracting when you watch the seasons back to back and she's 30 lbs heavier from one episode to the next

I think she's one of the most unlikable characters I've ever seen in a TV show. It's between her and Andrea. In the last season it actually got to be a joke where we'd have some great tv with walt/mike/jesse/tom or whatever then switch to Andrea/Marie and my wife and I would say, "Oh yeah just what we needed, more of this character." My dad gave me some good advice and says he just fast forwards through all their scenes. One day I might be as wise as he.

I've been FFwing through Skylar scenes since season 2.5
I don't even hate her. I'm not even McMad. She's just boring and extraneous. Nothing of any importance happens during any of her scenes until the most recent season, and even then it's weak. She's dramatic filler. She serves entirely to pace the story -- not to inform it or to further it. Her best lines are "Shut Up" and "I fucked Ted".
If I wanted to watch, "My Aunt: The television show" I suppose I would. That's a problem with the writing. She's a really poorly executed literary device, and it's a shame. I think there was an opportunity to make Skylar something interesting. But it's like the purpose of the character was to set up the "I am the one that knocks" speech. For how much attention has been paid to her, that's awful thin on purpose.

She doesn't though, is what I'm saying. That's what she'sintendedto do -- I 100% agree with that.
But you could tell this exact same story just as well in half the time without ever seeing Walt's family. It might even be more effective. He's doing it all for his family -- we never see his family. Walts motives are a lie.

She's also part of the crushing normality that pushed him to break bad in the first place. Rewatch the pilot; it's incredibly obvious that Walt has no power in their relationship. When he begins to reassert himself, that's when the friction in their marriage begins.
