I definitely don’t think Lost is poorly written, I would’ve used The Walking Dead as an example of a poorly written show with a great pilot.

Really? To me it's very clear from watching 3 seasons of Lost that the writers didn't know where they were going. And also the season-long plot was always very contrived and see-through. Again giving an impression that they were making it up as they went along.

The Walking Dead is in the same boat.

I used to find they had a lot of filler in the middle of the first three but the arcs would pay off brilliantly. The Walking Dead is just a mess tbh.

Brilliant is an exaggeration in my mind. I've watched a lot of shows with better payoffs in half the episodes.

Fair enough it’s just a matter of opinion at the end of the day I guess.
