Jared Padalecki portrayed beloved younger brother Sam Winchester on Supernatural for 15 seasons and just as many years, and these 10 performances are his best overall on the show. Padalecki's true breakout role was on Gilmore Girls , in which he ironically played a character named Dean, although he had begun acting several years earlier.

Padalecki has also starred in numerous shows in the last few years, but there's little question that Padalecki's best-known role to date is Sam Winchester, for which he also had many of his greatest acting moments of all time. In particular, these 10 Supernatural episodes represent Jared Padalecki's best performances as Sam Winchester —and number one is undeniable.
