The Best 'GoT' Episodes For Jon Snow Fans

The suspense, the tension, the large amount of time Melisandre spent touching Jon Snow's hair — this episode is the perfect reminder of how much we love Jon Snow. The world would be such a dark and terrible place without him.

Since Season 1, Jon's relationship with his bestie in black, Samwell Tarly, has been a beautiful thing to see develop. They're both so scrappy in their own ways and well-suited for each other. But the beginning of their friendship is the sweetest to watch as Snow defends the new recruit from the bullies of the Night's Watch.

Saying that there's a lot of sex in Game of Thrones is an understatement, but hands down the best romantic scene takes place in a cave between enemies/lovers Jon Snow and Ygritte. It looks like Jon Snow knows at least one thing...

If you're taking a stroll down memory lane, might as well stroll on down to the very beginning. It's so amusing to see a young Jon Snow before his entire existence went to hell, hanging out with puppies and sparring with his brothers, not a care in the world.

While this isn't the happiest episode for Jon Snow (way to go, Olly), he also truly proves his worth to the rest of the men at the Wall. When Janos Slynt turns out to be a garbage leader, Snow takes control and wins the day. It's nice to see him doing well.

Finally, something good happened to Jon Snow and Sansa. Surprising, but so exciting. I could watch their reunion on loop, it's that nice to see.

There's so much good in this episode. Jon Snow is all brave and ready to fight for what he believes in (saving Wildings), he figures out Valyrian steel can kill White Walkers, and, as in any battle scene, he looks fine. It's almost too good.

Tyrion is the best and Jon Snow is also the best, so a dialogue between Tyrion and Jon Snow is bound to make for a great episode.

I still have a hard time breathing when I think about Jon Snow almost getting crushed to death. And though there are some losses (RIP Rickon), Snow still gets to beat the stuffing out of Ramsay, and that's all any of us should need.

This episode is chock full of pride towards our favorite bastard. First, Stannis offers Jon the keys to a shiny new Winterfell, which he declines because that boy made a vow. Then, when we're still reeling from his mature decision, he gets voted in as Lord Commander. Way to go, Jon Snow — though more terrors await you.

Sure, we know Jon is about to betray the love of his life. But it's adorable to see them having a good time sharing experiences that they both enjoy, like scaling giant ice walls and making out in front of a beautiful sunset. Sigh.

The Maester Aemon pep talk suggesting that Jon "kill the boy and let the man be born" is reason enough to enjoy this episode. Thanks for the great advice for us all, Maester Aemon.

When Jon Snow Met Ygritte is the sort of romantic comedy I can get behind. In this episode, Jon Snow fails to kill Ygritte because he's a soppy mess of a man with an active conscience. He then chases her around for a really long time, and it becomes clear they are soulmates.

Jon Snow saves the Lord Commander's life by setting fire to a wight. It's really badass. If you need to feel some Jon Snow pride, here's your episode.

"My watch has ended." Drops mic. Walks away. Boom. Watching Jon Snow come to terms with his betrayal, death, and resurrection makes for riveting television.

Oh, Jon Snow, we hate to see you leave, but we love to watch you go. When Jon Snow goes rogue from his adventure as a Wilding, Ygritte is determined to take him out. But then she can't because she loves him too much. Prepare to cry.

After the weasel Janos Slynt refuses the newly appointed Lord Commander's orders not once but thrice, he is sentenced to die. Sure, it's hard to see Jon take a life in this way, but it's also cathartic.

You're welcome Jon Snow fans. Here's to more of our favorite bastard when the HBO series returns.
