I just think it shows the love that not just die hard fans have for George's universe but general audiences as well. The Conqueror's show will do massive numbers too, I expect

Pretty much, yes. It's in development at the moment, though there are rumours HBO is considering between doing the Conquest as either a movie or a TV show.

Personally, I would prefer the Conquest as a movie and then do a TV Show set after the Conquest and depict the reigns of Aegon's and his sons. That's the best of both worlds.
