I'm assuming this isn't a serious question.

Pretty much yeah, GoT is working towards a conclusion while TWD just recycles the same plot every season.

I bailed out of Walking Dead. Both the original series and the spin-off are pretty pointless at this point.

I still watch GoT.

Some people may have a different pov.

It does seem that they have just been wandering around aimlessly for some time now.

I still enjoy both, but GoT is way better.

GoT and it's really not close. At worst GoT will go down as a LOST. Aside from TWD fanboys, I don't think you'll have many argue that it is a better show all in all than LOST and especially GoT. I still think they gave us a Top 5 episode for the show this season and last season they gave two Top 5s back to back.

Unless it really, really shits the bed next season, I think GoT sits comfortably at the Top 20 shows in television history. I'm not even sure if you can comfortably say that TWD is one of the Top 100 greatest shows ever made, nevertheless in the Top 20.

I think GOT is in the discussion for greatest if it sticks the landing. But the ending is going to be extremely important.

I wasn't trying to be a dick. But plenty of people rip TWD for dragging out the plot. I don't see anyone saying GOT is dragging or failing to develop plot wise.

No prob man. I think along the same lines.

I think even those that still enjoy TWD think, even if they keep it buried inside, that the show has gone flat. I think they continue watching just because they bonded with it long ago and feel invested, regardless of the quality now.

AMC is just milking TWD as much as they can. One of the producers said they want to do 20 seasons.

I don't think that is an outlandish statement.

TWD is a cool zombie show, sure, but the acting leaves much to be desired and it is a pretty poorly written show.

You don't get to be a top 100 show of all time based on having a good concept alone.

And that's all it will be known as: the zombie show. No one calls Game of Thrones "The Medieval Show", LOST "The Island Show", or Breaking Bad "The Meth Show". They stand on their own accord to where it's more important "how they are about" not "what are they about".

30 years from now, I doubt many will remember much about TWD, while I'm sure plenty will still remember The Red Wedding, "We have to go back!", and "I am the one who knocks!"
