TWD was more of a letdown because of it being a season finale. GoT has to re-establish itself before becoming epic.

GoT has to reestablish itself first. It's just the season opener. It had to lay the foundation. Don't worry you will be entertained in the next few.

I haven't watched the finale of TWD but, it has become a little boring. I hope to God it doesn't become a The Following.

GoT disappointed in the fact they show us these badass monsters in the finale and all we get is a black screen and hear them screaming? I've been waiting since the finale to see these badasses wreck shop and we get a black screen...If HBO needed more money they could cut something else.

Are you speaking of the White Walkers (The Others)?

There is no big fight with them yet in the storyline. The show portrayed it accurately. There will be one though.

honestly i was a little disappointed with each but only because one was a season finale and the other i had blue balls for.

TWD was ok, but i'm not a fan of the turn the battle took. maybe b/c i read the comics. i'm not one of these "make the show just like the comics" people, but last night was the first time i really regretted them differing so much.

GOT was good. my only real complaint is that i wanted to see the castle stark/greyjoy/theon update. other than that it was an obvious setup episode. still, the hour flew by.

( i haven't read the GOT books btw). i think tywin's spurning of tyrion will lead to tyrion doing some epic shite. could be wrong. and no, don't confirm or deny that if you know.
