It's interesting that in the books, Tyrion uses his knowledge of the Wall to come to the conclusion that: Oh they're just trying to sound more desperate than they really are and sends nominal men.
While here in the show, Tyrion somehow uses the same knowledge to believe the report.
This is one change that affects our perception of Tyrion between adaptations most definitely.

I'm not so sure that I agree with this. In the books, to me, at least, it seems like he believes the tale, but just doesn't want to say so in order to maintain respectability. He still finds a way to send both tools and men, all the while making it seem like a mockery. He's actually less effective in the show. Here he stands up for Mormont, but ends up laughed at by the others. The Night's Watch ends up with nothing concrete, just Tyrion's voiced support.
Why must I always be the isle of crazy alone in an ocean of sensibility? The should to everybody else’s shouldn’t? The I-will to their better-nots?
