Haven't actually seen the episode, but for what it's worth...
There was plenty of it in the book, so unless they really exaggerated big time in the episode, it was probably accurate.
Agreed. I recall it pretty much like you do - hints that there might be something going on, but without it ever becoming clear.
I found that Pyke was handled rather well, even if I don't recall Asha (or whatever her name is now) teasing Theon or rather him hitting on her that much.

And once again the show proves that it does not really appreciate Martin's more subtle hints in the books and instead decides to let Stannis and Melisandre go at it right away. I thought that was a little much.

In the book the groping was both ways. (Asha was just doing it to screw with Theon though). In the show it was only one way.

Exactly. In fact, until she said something to Jon in DWD, I felt the actual copulation was ambiguous

I just think even with 10 hours of content this season, there isn't time for subtle hints.....

The little Theon-Asha thing is definitely there in the book.

I'm starting to get annoyed by the casting and the adaptations of the dialogue

The TV show should remind everyone that Martin should write screenplays, not novels.
