She's one of those you see and say 'I HATE this show, but I hope she gets better work later.'
Yeah. She trips my trigger.

Beyond that though, her internal identity crisis is a pretty big deal in the story. It's obviously not as overt as Chuck offing himself, But it is a big plot piece. Kim has always grounded Jimmy. Given him a glimpse of a life to strive for. Now that she's going off the rails a bit, his moral compass is going to be gone and lead further down the road of Saul. Good writing too, something as innocuous as a completely unrelated car accident subtly but dramatically changes 2 characters lives.

Par for the course. The writing has been largely excellent.

Bash away.
Meh. Looked to me like he was getting up the nerve to do it. Happens a lot with suicides. People half ass it and chicken out before they do it for real.

Besides, have you watched the show? The producers love to work towards an event rather than stuffing it down your throat.
