They made Thorne way too badass and sympathetic. It grated on my noble and refined book hipster sensibility. Nice episode otherwise. I like how they portray giants in the show, pretty much big hairy humans. They're more like pseudo-yetis in the book, only using crude weapons like tree trunks and stone mauls, wearing no clothes but covered in fur. That giant archer firing fucking ballista sized arrows was pretty cool. Hawkeyed Gough style.

For me Ygritte was the hottest GoT girl (being a ginger gave her the lead over Margaery and Talisa) but I did not feel pity for her at all. I'm still kinda trapped in a good old black-and-white view on the GoT world and as a wildling she belonged to the "bad guys" for me...

Honestly when their eyes met, and JS smiled, and her heart melted, I thought it was beautiful. Then the little shitbag with the bow had to end true loves chances. I think it was a very good way to end that story though.

Fun fact though. In real life,  the actress who plays Ygritte is actually part of a noble family and her parents owns a couple of castles in Scotland. Lol

Yeah I don't get it either... Why is Sam still alive? Them white walkers should have killed him a couple of times by now... Especially when he was "hiding" his fat ass behind the rock. Wtf white walkers have feelings and don't kill pussies?

Haha. I wish the whole show was like this. Its already corny and melodramatic enough on far too low a budget, they should just embrace it and be over the top as fuck with pop music and smug one liners

Virtual graveyard, and that's just main people relevant enough to appear in the TV series!
