Skyler White won an Emmy while you were watching 'Breaking Bad'

The Internet's least favorite wife of a meth dealer earned herself some hardware at the 65th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards. Anna Gunn won the Emmy for Best Supporting Actress in a Drama Series for her portrayal of Skyler White aka Skysenberg. She was nominated for the award last year, too.

Last month, Gunn authored an op-ed for The New York Times in which she discussed the unpopularity of her character in Breaking Bad.

My character, to judge from the popularity of Web sites and Facebook pages devoted to hating her, has become a flash point for many people's feelings about strong, nonsubmissive, ill-treated women. As the hatred of Skyler blurred into loathing for me as a person, I saw glimpses of an anger that, at first, simply bewildered me.

For those unfamiliar with the show: Skyler is the wife of Walter White, a high-school chemistry teacher who, after learning he has lung cancer, begins cooking and selling methamphetamine to leave a nest egg for Skyler, their teenage son and their unborn daughter. After his prognosis improves, however, Walter continues in the drug trade — with considerable success — descending deeper and deeper into a life of crime.

Turns out she may be a little more popular than she originally thought.
