I have never been able to get into it. Im the kind of person that will wait for everyone to stop talking about it and then get into it.
I've read the five books that are out, and after the fifth, I rage-quit. I have zero interest in watching the show. It's basically just masochism; "hey, I'm gonna show you all the reasons why you should love this character... and then I'm gonna gleefully kill them off, hehe!".

I really liked Game of Thrones, but I will admit there is nothing particularly stunning about it. It has high production value and a plot line that is at least sometimes unexpected or imaginative. Having said that, I have watched breaking bad and I am sure it is good for the same reasons, I just prefer the fantasy setting of GOT over the gritty noire-esque modern setting of BB. Neither show is so amazing though, and there's nothing on TV I would consider incredible. It's all lowest denominator crappola which is why I appreciate the Scooby Doo original series. Nobody pretended (including the artists) that is was anything but the terrible cartoon it is. It doesn't masquerade. I also appreciate Tom Green,Wonder Showzen and Tim and Eric. Terrible TV for people who know that all TV is bad to begin with.

I'm just burned out on medieval fantasy stuff at this point. I played shit tons of Demon's/Dark Souls, The Elder Scrolls, really big into Lord of the Rings...I just can't take any more knights and dragons and castles shit.

Not a big fan of the show and not a big fan of breaking bad either for that matter. I thought Jesse was a whiny pussy.
