Ranking the 22 Hottest Guys on Game of Thrones
There are plenty of reasons to be obsessed with Game of Thrones, including all the handsome eye candy. Over the past six seasons, we've loved — and, in some cases, lost — more than a few hot characters, and while some of them may have been complicated or crazy or downright evil, we couldn't help but notice that they're also good-looking. We've ranked the show's sexiest characters, including some of the dearly departed ones. And although we tried to make it about looks alone, some of the characters are just too compelling to ignore. All that being said, take a trip down memory lane with a look at the 22 hottest guys on Game of Thrones. Do you agree?
Joffrey Baratheon
Honestly, we have to make a looks-only exception here, because it's just way too hard to separate Joffrey's looks from his totally deranged character.
Ramsay Snow
Ugh, another one who's totally deranged. (See above re: Joffrey.)
Samwell Tarly
Sam + Gilly = 4ever. We'd go to first base with you too, Sam.
Stannis Baratheon
Silver fox, amiright?
Podrick Payne
The innocence! Those puppy-dog eyes!
Petyr Baelish
Littlefinger's ranking would definitely be higher minus the mustache, but in any case, he's still got a classically handsome thing happening.
Theon Greyjoy
Pre-"Reek," we couldn't help but notice that Theon was pretty cute.
Jorah Mormont
Betrayal aside, Jorah's rather easy on the eyes.
Jaqen H'ghar
He changes faces — literally — but we like this one best.
Tyrion Lannister
There's a reason he's been such a ladies' man.
Grey Worm
Missandei is getting awfully suggestive with Grey Worm, and we totally get it.
Ned Stark
OK, we'll admit it: we're probably a little biased because Ned's character is just so good, but this guy's a stud.
Loras Tyrell
You can't help but love those curls. You just can't.
Daario Naharis No. 1
The original Daario Naharis is basically just like Beast in Beauty and the Beast — when he transforms into a hot human, that is.
Khal Drogo
Drogo wins Daenerys's heart, and it's very much deserved.
Prince Oberyn Martell
We did a double take when Oberyn arrives at King's Landing.
Renly Baratheon
He only appears in eight episodes, but Renly's good looks make a lasting impression.
Gendry
It was pretty much all over once we saw him shirtless.
Daario Naharis No. 2
Ummmm two words: That. Butt.
Robb Stark
Oh my god, where do we start?
Jaime Lannister
Loving Jaime Lannister is an emotional roller coaster, but damn, does he clean up well, or what?
Jon Snow
Jon Snow for the WIN! He's the cutest, broodiest, bravest character with — let's face it — the best hair, too. Oh, and let's never forget that time in the cave . . .
