I think we all know what to expect.

According to Deadline, HBO has made the sensible decision to keep milking their cash cow until it dries up completely: they've greenlit a pilot for a Game of Thrones prequel series. Details are scarce, but the as-yet-untitled show is apparently set thousands of years before the events of A Song Of Ice And Fire, so now we can see people plot, have sex, and die horribly in even more primitive conditions! YAY!
