One last thing, HBO has never had a show like Thrones. Most of their shows are focused on the US, and appeal to US audiences, Rome was an earlier attempt to enter the global market and it failed. Thrones is everything Romes wasn't to them, it's their one and only Global franchise, and it's the mother load. It doesn t matter if it's ratings in the US are lower, not when it's selling all over the world. Expect young beautiful people, with some vets throne in just like thrones and HBO will find a way to right stories for the ASOIAF world. Look at Kit and Emilia, whenever they go on location, it's like the friggin Beatles landed in some countries. There is a formula there, Azur and Nissa, Bran and Lann, don't they sound like they are brothers? Twists and turns and mysteries. Maybe see some places we have not like Asshai, maybe Nissa is a Red Priest or a Shadow Binder. Who knows, it could be good. You could also do some mini series, and made for HBO movies with the material. There is such a wealth of material an anthology series ala American Crime Story and American Horror Story would be a perfect for the ASOIAF universe. Each season being a contained narrative, imagine the number of stories they could tell! And now that GOT is such a phenomenon and tv has become prestige, they could get really big names. Man, what I wouldn't give to see Charlize Theron as Princess Rhaenyra.

With new HBO management I expect 10 spin off LOL
But I'm glad that they were not able to influence GoT.

I would be way more excited for a Doom of Valyria prequel than the other one. What can I say, I'm a sucker for dragons.

This project sounds a lot more "modern" and marketable than the Long Night. You have a Roman-like empire, slaves, exotic locations, a potential for adventure. It might also delve into one of the biggest mysteries in ASOIAF lore: the Doom. And then there's Sothyoros, which is full of creepy shit according to the world book (abandoned jungle cities, very Apocalypse Now), and they coiuld maybe show Asshai if they go a bit eastwards.

Glad to hear that filming on the Long Night pilot is ready to get started soon! Even if we won’t see the series itself for another two years or so (since HBO has said that any spinoff series won’t debut until at least a year after the last season of Game of Thrones has aired), a pilot filming means that we should start to hear casting news in the next few months, and location shooting not long after! All of the good stuff that keeps us busy during our own Long Night, as it were.
The other report, about a potential Doom of Valyria series, does sound fascinating … but once I saw the source for said report, I must admit that my enthusiasm rapidly cooled. I’m afraid that some of the things that the source in question has written and done over the past few years has significantly damaged whatever credibility I might once have placed in such an account.
I’m not saying that the report is invalid or inaccurate … the level of specific detail is quite extensive. But I’ll wait until a more reputable and unbiased reporter corroborates the story before I get too interested.

He is not mentally stable. And this is not exaggeration.

I think WOTW linking it means that it gels with things they've heard as well and weren't yet ready to report. But now that the cat's out of the bag, they're willing to second it. Luka who wrote the WOTW article knows well about TDD and his ways, so I don't think he'd lend credence to this unless he knew it was true.

I’d be very happy with this. She’s great in everything she’s in. Big name, and early casting, = core role usually. Could be Nissa though a bit old for that role, but she looks super young for her age. To Old for Danny Flynt, Lannisters don't exist yet and neither do Starks. Could be a Casterly of a red Priest. I'm thinking Nissa though, she looks like she would be a good moon maiden. It's just the age thing.
