She Needs To Come Back To GoT

Yes I know in the books she is dead and presumably gone for good. That being said I don't give a *beep* what is in the books and demand that David and Dan the show creators bring her back . I don't care how they do it, and I don't care when just so long as it is before the show ends. And I mean back to life not just in a vision or for an episode or two like Khal Drogo I mean back to the end or at least a little while longer like at least another season.

And realistically the creators D&D could bring her or pretty much anyone they want back seeing as the books are not going to be done anytime soon and they have already taken a lot of liberties with the show already. They really could take this show in it's own direction and not have to worry about source material.

While I liked her character, I don't agree it's a good idea to bring her (or any other crowd favourite for that matter) back. See, once they start doing this, there will be more demands. And in the end, nobody dies permanently. Which would defeat one of the few advantages this show has over others. You'll never know what happens next and who'll make it, every character can get killed any second, so you finally care about them.
Also, GoT has epic proportions and a metric *beep* on characters even *with* a major character getting killed every second episode. But, there are only so many things you can cover each episode. If we've kept all our favourite characters forever, each of them would get a smaller screentime and other areas like plot development and integrity of the story would suffer. I liked The Hound, Shae, Tywin, Khal Drogo, Maester Luwin, Oberyn Martell, Barristan Selmy and others that have died but I realize I can't have them all back because then we'd need 30-second-clips of each character per episode to cover them all.

Well I see your concern and well I thought of that originally I did think her death is one that could be undone without diminishing the story. I feel like characters such as Ned, Robert, Catlyn, Robb, Rennly etc. are characters that had deaths that changed a lot of big events and there outcomes. Like Renly dying destroyed the alliance he had with Robb and ultimately lead to Robb losing the war. Ned obviously a pivotal death (even though it was Sean Bean so not so surprising) to the story that bringing him back would undo so mcuh story. This is where Ygritte has an advantage because I feel as though she was a big enough character to be remembered when brought back, but not such a big player in the Game that her coming back would really undo any of the story. All it would really do is give Jon someone besides Sam at the Wall to confide in (among other things). Provided that is that Jon Snow Lives next season which I think he very much well might.
