Game of Thrones, at least so far, seems to be in a class all it's own though. If they keep going the way they are with it, it will be forever compared and likened to the calibre of the Lord of the Rings trilogy. Wouldn't blame anyone a bit for doing so either. As much as I liked LOTR I have to say I am immensely enjoying GOT nearly as much so far.
Spartacus and Game of Thrones are both great in their own ways -- but they're really two different tier shows.
