YMMV / Game of Thrones S4E4: "Oathkeeper"

• Memetic Mutation: Karl's rant about how he was "a fookin' LEGEND in Gin Alley!" After one episode alone, Karl (whose role had been greatly expanded from the books) quickly gained a cult following. Burn Gorman's terrific performance certainly didn't hurt.
• Complete Monster: Karl Tanner reaches status in this episode, having taken up at Craster's Keep. Here he hurtles insults towards his men, encourages them to rape Craster's daughters/wives "to death, " and drinks wine from the skull of "Jeor fookin' Mormont", the very commander he betrayed. When one of the wives comes with a son who has been born, Karl's first reaction is to take a knife and kill it. He's only stopped when the rest of the wives point out they usually leave the sons out in the cold as a sacrifice for the White Walkers so he has that done instead. Once one of his men captures Bran and his group, he menaces Meera and threatens her to get Bran to speak. In the next episode, he intends to rape her in front of her brother, and then let his men do the same.
