    Saw MLP in "Heisenberg," Broadway show, and talked to her afterwards. Brilliant acting, and she's hysterically funny off stage, genuine, very intelligent, wacky as hell and absolutely gorgeous. She truly looks 10 times better in person than on screen. Just looked her up on Wiki. She's won a ton of acting awards and is involved in over a dozen worthy humanitarian awards: helping children in Africa, working with Tom Hanks to help soldiers with PTSD, children's reading programs, helping musicians with cancer get their music recorded and more. If I ever go lez it will be for her.

    I like imperfect characters that have to make hard choices. Half the time I could only think, wow, I do not want this woman's life I'd be dead within a year. I, personally, would have just downsized when my husband died instead selling drugs, but then there would be no story. She was a better parent than my father or my mother, so, half the time I think Silas is being an ungrateful snot. As far a drug dealer goes she was pretty ethical. She didn't sell the hard stuff, she blew the whistle when it came to human trafficking. She tried to give Peter's first wife the life insurance money which something that no one would actually do in real life, come on, especially when she was being such a B about it. She took the fall for her son. I really don't see how she's a terrible person, just a reasonably selfish person that obviously loves her kids put into a difficult situation.

      Took the fall for her son? She's the reason why he was in that position. Towards the end of the series she was a horrible manipulative person. She didn't treat anyone as an equal until they threatened to leave in which case she sung a song to get them back into her orbit. Ever noticed how anyone who left Nancy life improved dramatically? If she really loved her kids she wouldn't have dragged them along with her and put them into situations that put their life on the line. She just can't stand being alone.

      @@eobardthawne324 Her son was in that position because she fell in love with the rich narco politician rather than Andy without realizing how dangerous he was. But the heart wants what it wants. And it's, like, a TV show, so they needed to keep making things dangerous to keep it interesting. Everyone finally gets (boring) peace in this ending. Why the hate?

      @@globalhumanism "The heart wants what it wants". That’s bs especially since the second she realized he was dangerous to be around she should have left so as to not put her kids in danger. The problem is it’s not dangerous it’s just her being stupid. You can have dangerous situations without characters being complete idiots. Peace isn’t boring, it’s satisfying especially when it’s earned.

      @@eobardthawne324 That was quick. Ever have rose colored glasses on at the beginning of a relationship? Anyone here who hasn't? And she learned her lesson; her next love was an actual rabbi. (Before that, an architect then a DEA agent, the latter of whom turned out to be as bad as the narco. Maybe she was overcompensating?) Peace isn't boring IRL, but it is on TV.

    MLP seems to be missing her Nancy Botwin spark during this interview. When other people are speaking (in the other vids), she seems lifeless and uninterested. And in this one, when she is speaking, what she says is interesting, but she seems so melancholy. What's up? :(

    I never liked her as a mother, talking about Solitary Man, Saved!, and Fried Green Tomatoes. I can see why I wouldn't like her Suburban-dope-growing mother either. But man, this woman's looks have grow on me. I can't get enough of her. Another lady crush here.

    Initially, yes, that was what was awesome about the show, but it became so ridiculous that nothing she is saying makes sense. Clearly there is a ton on BS in the show. A suburban house mom is not going to marry a Mexican mayor for no reason.... this show got so bad so quickly. The next season really needs to do something new

    I believe the standard diagnosis for bitterness like yours is sexual frustration, but dont give up hope. Theres a man or woman out there for you. Its just a question of finding someone whos turned on by uncontrolled rage and gratuitous profanity.
    Hope your life gets better soon. Goodbye.
