What damage control.. damn near every DC release has been a hit, even the really shytty ones. 
House Of The Dragon is only ONE series though.
While I think its absolutely retarded that they are alienating talent for scripted movies and series in this manner, you can’t really point to the Game Of Thrones franchise as the end all be all for scripted content as its a once in a lifetime type phenomena. There are blockbuster MOVIE franchises that aren’t as popular as GOT.

Uh.. Euphoria was the most watched TV show on streaming earlier this year. HBO don't miss...
Didn’t know that.
I wasn’t speaking on the quality of HBO’s other series. I quite enjoy Insecure, Winning Time, and of course classics like Entourage.
I’m simply saying that you can’t lay your hat at Game Of Thrones door. Thats ONE franchise thats on the level of Star Wars, Jurassic Park, and Pirates Of The Caribbean. Its GUARANTEED to attract a massive audience and its lightening in a bottle. Euphoria, nor any other HBO series will EVER attract the audience that GOT does and thats just a fact of nature.
Again let me say plainly that I feel personally that the strategy of alienating scripted series talent is fukking retarded and ass backwards. ESPECIALLY considering that HBO has been known as the scripted series king for longer than most of us can remember (Netflix gave them a little competition a few years ago but it seems they may have flamed out)

Who have they alienated that matters? All these threads are jumping the gun imo. They've renewed all the top series so far and they signed a new deal with Matt Reeves for DC content.. They are in business with James Gunn.
We'll see.. So far nothing major has happened

Sell DC Comics to Universal
Just for this intro alone.
They couldn’t do a Monsterverse right tho. And they had Cruise and Crowe.

Only Invisible Man was a hit but by the time that came out, they had already cancelled the monsterverse.They couldn’t do a Monsterverse right tho. And they had Cruise and Crowe.

And that wasn’t part of the Monsterverse, so why bring it up?

Because it's part of Universal's collection of monster movies
