I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

What's the third one?
And wouldn't Ashton's conquest segue into Roberts rebellion, or am I confused?

Since I wasn't a book reader before I watched the series, when I started with Season 1 everything was new to me, and one of the things that hooked me on the show was figuring out who each character was, where their loyalties lied, what role they had to play in the story. Robert's Rebellion has been so well covered in the books and--at least to some extent--in the show that I feel like it wouldn't be as exciting, since it'd have a very "prequel-y" feel of, "Oh, here's Robert," "Here's Ned," "Here's Tywin," and on into infinity with every other character, and of course you'd know how it all ends. If you adapted something like the Dance of the Dragons (and to a similar extent, Aegon's conquest), I'm sure even book readers would be intrigued with the twists and turns the story would take, and the rich lives of new characters that popped up on screen. I haven't read Dunk and Egg, so can't really speak to that.

And with that all said, I'm sure the network will push for Robert's Rebellion.
