Watching The Sopranos, it's remarkable how much more I like Carmella than Skyler from Breaking Bad.
Both are the wives of big bad criminals who keep them in the dark. Both are strong women who struggle with what the father of their children does for a living.
I think the reason I like Carmella more is that she's a woman of action and determination and she doesn't fuck around, whereas Skyler was more of a mopey woman of complaining. But it could simply be the actresses' performances or any other of a million things, not sure...
