Game of Thrones ended over a year ago, and the fans miss the show terribly. Though there are prequel series in works, the original characters will always hold a special place in everyone’s hearts. One of them being Jon Snow, who is currently trending on Twitter, and fans are baffled as to why.

Jon Snow, played by Kit Harington, is easily one of the most famous and lovable characters on the show Game of Thrones. All was well on Twitter until Netflix caused a stir with the following tweet:

Most of the fans linked it to the recent release of the trailer of Criminals season 2, starring Kit Harington. Kit Harington played Jon Snow for all the 8 seasons of Game of Thrones. Criminals season 2 also stars Kunal Nayyar, Sophie Okonedo and Sharon Horgan. Kit shines in his role as a convicted real estate agent.

While others linked the trend to seasonal change. A pun directed at a famous line from the show. Something that only a Stark would say,
“Winter is coming.”
