That is a very strong word to use for a character hated by so many!

The ONLY thing I'd change in that video, start it with Olly's "head nod" to Jon after he took out Ygritte, then cut to the hang shot.

Or maybe it was just the young widow and Dany that did it, just speculation that's all.

Not the kill to me, but his head nod had me losing it. So I can think of nothing funnier than that before showing him hanging.

I don't get this hate towards Olly.

The kid witnessed his whole village get raped and murdered, including his own parents. When he sought refuge at the wall, the lord commander allowed free passage to the same people who did all of the killing and raping to Olly's village. That aint right

10/10, would stab Jon Snow in the heart again

Don't forget eaten. They got killed by Thenns, so raped while being cannibalized and then murdered.

That's the beauty of this show, Olly was no doubt totally right in his actions and feelings of betrayal by Jon's actions. Yet the way it all gets framed we hate Olly and don't mind him hanging in the end.

Then you have Jaime Lannister, incestual, kingslaying, pushes kids out of towers without even a moments hesitation, and the show has turned him into a sympathetic character to most viewers.

I don't know, all I remember is when the big mean Thenn guy grabbed Olly he told him he was gonna eat his parents (and possibly rape them) in front of him.

Yeah but did you see the stinkeye he spent the past year and a half giving Jon? His parents probably welcomed the release of death to be free of their miserable little kid, imo.

Yeah, all of that was done by the Thenns that never came through the wall. So technically Olly is not only annoying but an ignorant Xenophobe that classifies anything living North of the Wall as 'Evil.'

I'm pretty sure Ygritte killed his dad actually. It's been a while since I watched that episode, but I think the scene where Olly kills her is really similar to the scene where she kills his dad. I'll have to go back and re-watch them though.

Pretty sure Olly wasn't all caught up on the lineages and tribes of the wildlings...

There was some Thenns. A group of them meet up with Tormund and Ygritte's group to attack the south gate of Castle Black.

Thenn's Join group south of the Wall


Group of them attack a Olly's village in an attempt to draw out the Nights Watch


Jon Snow vs Styr and Olly gets his revenge. The Olly Nod for Bigtime.

There wouldn't necessarily be a detectable odor if they covered the outside of the building with something like kerosene. Particularly if you were already in a hut filled with large karosene lamps. The flames seemed to pick up speed dramatically as the reached the walls of the structure.
