Had a talk with my sister about Breaking Bad and it hit different

I was over at my sister's place last week and she put on Breaking Bad for the first time. She's never seen it before and I've watched it twice. About 5 episodes in, she paused it and said "I don't think Walt is the good guy at all, he's just selfish from the start." That stopped me cold because I always saw him as a guy who got pushed into a bad situation. But she pointed out how he turned down the free treatment from his rich friends and lied about the money from Grey Matter. Now I'm rewatching season 1 and she's totally right - the signs were there from episode 1. Has anyone else had a rewatch completely flipped around by someone else's take?
