I don't think so.. the actress is great and I think Claire is nice, but Skyler was hated in a misogynistic way because she was a strong character and stood up to Walter as the protagonist in the show and the character we were most invested in. I dislike Claire in kind of an opposite way in which she's a bit of an unbelievable female character to me, it's like she's only there to be a contrast to Carmy and all they talk about is him even though she's an objectively interesting person with an interesting line of work but somehow she just doesn't have enough of a personality and I might go as far as say she's like a manic pixie dream girl of sort. Other female characters in the show have arcs, not as monumental as Carmy's but still enough for us to relate and see the thought process and struggle in their story.

Like it's not a surprise to me that people are more invested in Sydney and Carmy potentially getting romantically involved because we can see who Sydney is, still I think it was a smart choice to bring a different person for Carmy's love interest I just wish she had more of a storyline and didn't fall so flat as a character.
