Dude seems straight up professional, successful, and a symbol of hard work over time paying off.
I can’t get on board disgracing him by Sliippin Jimmy. Than him being shot in cold blood. Prob the only real man on the show. Prob represents 90% of the OT.

I mean, she was like 19 and in college. I’m not sure you know what that word means.

And Hamlin was a smug douche, but he wasn’t a bad guy really. And he got completely fricked over for almost no reason whatsoever.

He was her professor.
Still a dick move.

You're right. Chuck set him up to be the bad guy but he really wasn't. He tried to help Jimmy more than Jimmy knew. Slippin' Jimmy is asshoe.

Howard Hamlin was a great dude. Best heart on the entire show.

Jimmy is a bad guy.
Howard is the antagonist but that doesn’t make him a bad guy

No can do. He’s not a bad guy

Howard was a good guy
Jimmy was a POS but his story was more interesting

The general consensus in the old threads mostly agree with you if I remember correctly.

Howard was never portrayed as a bad guy. He was one of the only good guys throughout. A bit douchy but never a bad guy.

This is the answer

It is worth throwing in that we never saw what caused he and his wife to be so estranged. It’s possible that he was a complete a-hole in his life before the show started, as it’s pretty hard to climb that high without being one. But, he had definitely changed his ways by the time the show timeline started.

I think that was kind of the point. That’s the greatness of the writing/story. You know the main characters are bad people but you still end up rooting for them.

Part of the genius of BB and BCS is how they had us pulling for the dirtbags and despising the better people.
In my rewatch of BB, I was thinking, “why did I hate Skyler so much? Walt is a complete narcissistic a-hole.”
