You can blame the show for not spelling out just how desperate the Night's Watch was as the Wildlings approached. They had old men and whores on that wall in the book!

I love the concept of The Night's Watch. It's where the world's sinners, misfits, cowards, and cast-offs could find a place where they can form their own family and vow to defend the realm as well as each other.
