* WhatTheHellHero: She is understandably taken aback by Chuck slapping her phone and not telling her about his psychosomatic condition. She gives one of these to Jimmy as well, after he drives Chuck to a breakdown on the stand in order to escape being disbarred.

* ObnoxiousInLaws: Averted, she really likes Mike (whom she affectionately refers to as "Pop") and he looks after her like she was his own child.

* SavedByCanon: Since she briefly appears in the original series, she'll survive this show.

* AmbiguousSituation: The nature of his strained relationship with her husband Howard. Howard mentions [[ExiledToTheCouch he's been sleeping in their guest house]] for "a better part of a year", and Cheryl's reaction to Kim false story about Howard implies they'd had marital issues for at least over a year and had grown distant, with her only on-screen interaction with her husband being polite but icy. Whether or not this is simply a case of two people growing apart, the fallout of Howard's feud with Chuck and his grief-stricken response to the latter's death, something else, or all of the above is anyone's guess. We also never know what exactly Howard suggests to Cheryl, implied to be either a discussion about divorce or about going to couples' therapy, and the reason for her refusal to engage in it, whether that be due to not wanting to end the marriage or the marriage just being irreparably damaged. Regardless, Cheryl's implied BelatedLoveEpiphany indicates she deeply cares for him.

* DeadSparks: Howard and Cheryl are evidently no longer in love but are not separated, and Howard claims that Cheryl refuses to discuss divorce or trying to salvage the relationship. Instead they just continue to go through the motions as a couple, sharing purely functional conversation and appearing at social events together when they both deem it appropriate. However, by the 2010, when Howard is long gone, Cheryl still cares for him.

* LockedOutOfTheLoop: Unlike Tuco's grandma, Nacho's father does not know that his Ignacio is a drug dealer. It's implied that Manuel is aware of Nacho's criminal past, and thought that he was TheAtoner, back on the straight-and-narrow.

* HateSink: She's a lot worse when she is not drunk, such as using her daughter to steal earrings without any regards to the consequences

* ParentalNeglect: She left Kim waiting for her in the cold for hours, and when she finally drove up she was so buzzed Kim refused to get in the car with her.

** Like Kim, Jimmy was TheMovieBuff, while Glenn's main interests appear to be [[MenAreUncultured DIY and reality TV]]. He also seems a lot less intelligent and knowledgable about the world in general- when he tries to declare himself TeamSwitzerland in an argument he likens himself to Sweden by mistake.

* MenAreUncultured: [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed]]. While his main intrests are DIY and reality TV, his friends don't appear to be any more cultured than he is, and the same applies to the women Kim befriends at her new job. Kim and Glenn's entire social circle in Titusville seems to consist of incurious people who are [[CountryMouse perfectly content with their mundane smalltown existence]].
* NiceGuy: He's a genuinely decent man whose only real fault is being quite [[GoodIsBoring blisteringly dull]].

* WomenAreWiser: She's polite and sympathetic to Jimmy, unlike her male counterparts.

* HonorBeforeReason: Nacho says that his dad would never associate himself in illegal activities even if his life is on the line.

* AntiVillain: For the most part, he's barely a villain. He's a honest and decent person who plays by the rules and treats his legal counsels with respect. Still, his ruthless pursuit of business ends up jeopardizing Everett Acker, which puts him on Saul's radar as an ArcVillain and gets humiliated as a result.
