Jon Snow’s Immortality Theory Makes Game Of Thrones’ Spinoff Better
Timeline concerns about Jon Snow’s spinoff can be fixed by a Game of Thrones theory about his immortality.

However, when taking King’s Landing from Cersei Lannister, Daenerys used her dragon to slaughter the entire city – foes and innocents alike. Tyrion then convinced Jon that killing Daenerys would be the best decision for the realm, a complicated suggestion that he finally agreed to in the Game of Thrones finale. After killing Daenerys, Jon was exiled to the Night’s Watch, with the show’s final moments seeing him ride beyond the Wall alongside Tormund and the free folk.
