"Dallas" for millennials?

People seem to watch both largely for the same reasons.

For a brief period Dallas of the 70's and 80's did grip the west like this show did, all though it just fizzled out in popularity sometime in the 80’s, Bobby waking up in the shower probably killed it but the JR shooting mystery was a phenomenon.

Please enlighten me: What are/were the reasons specifically that made people watch Dallas and Game of Thrones?

And yes, I remember Dallas. I watched a few episode back in the 1980ies, found it boring and stopped. And I never knew WHY people were watching it.
