Game of Thrones or Walking Dead: which is more overrated?

If someone would ask me what I think is the most overrated show on TV, these two shows hands down will take the crown.

Game of Thrones - I decided to watch this show after people keep on telling me how good it is. So I borrowed the entire first season DVD and I don't think I encountered a show where I couldn't care less about any of the characters. The story itself was so slow moving that I constantly have to endure through this show. The characters? Okay I normally don't complain about a large cast, but if you're going to give me a large cast, then by all means actually develop them or give them character traits so I don't end up meshing them with all the other characters. Actually no, I take that back. The characters who do gets screentime my feelings for them would usually range anywhere from unpleasant to thinking they're an a-hole who needs to die. I'm suppose to like some of the characters on this show right? If the creators were aiming for some grim, unpleasant experience filled with equally unpleasant characters, well then creators you succeeded. Except I'm not a masochist and this kind of things turn me off.

Then things happen in the story off screen as if I felt like this series wasn't slow moving and boring enough, and characters begin backstabbing each other and I'm questioning if I'm suppose to have an investment in any of these guys. I can't even remember much about Sean Bean before they kill him off. He was just there for me. Actually there was one character I felt for when they died. I felt bad for the dog. That was the one character I felt some sadness for. Though with lack of story and character story/arc/development, GOT does make sure to give me lots of porn and rape in substitute of these things. Really? Is this the big appeal of the show?

Most shows I would've gave up after 5 episodes, but GOT due to it's overrated status I actually borrowed the complete season 2 hoping to see something that I'm suppose to actually like about this series. Well season 2 finale did actually give me a battle scene where I felt there was some stakes involved, so that's something I guess. That's definitely different from what I was previously getting. I also have to say I'm already sick of seeing Emelia Clarke ending up in many of the franchises I like and constantly praised. Sure her character on GOT is one (possibly the only) character on the series to have something resembling a character arc, but that doesn't make her good. Needless to say, I gave up on the series after that point. I gave that show more patience and time than I would any other show, and see it's just another overrated show that probably gets praised for the same reason people openly praise the Spartacus series.

The Walking Dead - Unlike GOT, I actually liked the series at one point. Season 1 I really enjoyed as characters had a journey and you could see them making decisions that they regret later on, and you can feel for the characters and their struggle. Then season 2 arrives and it basically becomes Game of Thrones the zombie edition. Now you're just waiting tirelessly for something to happen, and any characters you might like is slowing becoming despicable pieces of crap. Then there's the stupidity meter in this show. While the characters were always pretty dumb in the series, it's becoming more apparent in the later series as now characters usually have a pretty safe settlement, and in order for there to be any tension characters have to willing go out of their safe zone and do some of the most idiotic decisions possible.

There's not really any story in this series past season 1. Just survivors wandering aimlessly until someone dies. Also any impression that any character can die in this series that you might have picked up from the creators or the show you later realize it's just the disposable new characters or actors wanting to leave who dies. All the main fave characters has some of the most ridiculous plot armor I've seen. Like if a enemy camp captures them, they'll kill off all the random extras then something distracts and brings them away from their duty right before they reach the main characters, or they run out of bullets before it reaches the main characters or a zombie comes out of nowhere and kills them before it reaches the main characters.

Speaking of other camps, while I get the whole humanity devolving and survival of the fittest things going on in the series, none of it leads to anything, so it just feels pointless and a cheap way to get more tension if zombies ain't doing it. Sometimes I'm watching an episode solely because there's an actor I like in it, and I would want the actor to live and the main characters to die. At the end this series is just pointlessness. My brother compared a video game I like to play called State of Decay to Walking Dead and while there are many similarities, there's probably two reasons why I like State of Decay but got tired of Walking Dead.1) Playing a zombie apocalyps
