Sorry, that was supposed to be a joke. But I suppose that's mostly my fault since sarcasm doesn't really come across well over the internet :/
As for the Walking Dead comparisons, here's a few of the parallels I see:
-Dark, oppressive atmosphere, world in ruins due to supernatural monsters (though, Titans are WAY more interesting.)
-General plot is minimal at best. More focus on character development and interaction
-Lead character is interesting, but ultimately overshadowed by the supporting cast (This is also disappointing in that the Lead character is the only character that's truly safe from death - so you're stuck with them for the entire ride)
-Very great moments of tension, even if they are few and far between.
-The greatest flaw both shows suffer from is their horribly, mismanaged pacing. (Almost all of TWD S2 was a struggle and even episodes of the current season felt padded out. Episodes 15-end of AOT moved at a snail's pace compared to the opening of the anime)
