The show is known for its compelling storylines, complex characters and stunning performances.

However, one figure that has always been at the center of controversy is Skyler White. Fans have often criticized her actions, but recently their perspective has changed.

Skyler was introduced as the wife of Walter White, a struggling high school chemistry teacher who turns to cooking meth to support his family after being diagnosed with cancer.

Initially, Skyler is portrayed as a loving wife who is trying to support her husband through his difficult times. However, as the show progresses, Mrs. White takes a darker turn and becomes more involved in her husband's criminal activities.

Fans of the show have often criticized Skyler for her behavior, calling her annoying, whiny, and ungrateful. Many viewers felt that Skyler hindered Walter's progress and kept him from achieving his goals.

However, Redditor sadsackle's recent comment has changed the narrative. They justify her decisions and her attitude. And after watching Better Call Saul, the fan was even more convinced that Skyler was right.

For example, Mrs. White would not let Saul buy Lazer Base to launder money. It seems like a stupid decision at first, but it's actually a brilliant one.

Saul did not inspire much confidence. Skyler didn't trust the lawyer at the beginning, which turned out to be a solid point of view in the end.

Also, choosing a car wash to run a shady business proved to be a much better and more logical investment.

She could run her business in peace. Skyler would not have to deal with various thugs or expand the company, and no one could report on the Whites, because no one knew about their operations.

The situation with Laser Base was completely different. Would Skyler have trusted Danny, the owner of the building? Would he have remained loyal all these years?

Not only did Mrs. White make a lucrative investment that provided for her family for a long time, but she also persuaded Saul to buy the car wash on the cheap.

The fan notes that Skyler, unlike Kim, foresaw the terrible events that were about to befall Walt. So she tried to keep her family safe for as long as possible, and to do less harm to the innocent people.

And while Kim didn't realize she was committing a truly terrible act until after Howard's death, Skyler realized it immediately.
