I think the show really improved when Antonio joined (not that it wasn't a great show before). He could get on my nerves at times, but he had some hilarious lines and scenes. A couple of my favorites...

"What the Cabbie Saw"- Antonio going insane when he thought he was being stalked by a psychopath, only to find he was stalking Helen instead. :lol:

When he was held hostage by Bob, the crazed air-traffic controller. "She's lying! I'm clumsy, I'm inexperienced, I don't even know where everything is!"

When he was on the plane with Brian when the robber tried to hijack them. 'We can take of ourselves."

:lol: :lol: :lol: I could go on.

Tony may be getting much more attention now for playing Adrian Monk, but he'll always be Antonio, the hapless cabbie to me.

I love the scene where he and Roy did their dance... cracks me up every time :lol:

Also... when he first met Casey and was so overwhelmed that he couldn't get any words out and just spat out some gibberish. :D

In "Grouses, Houses and Bickering Spouses" where he breaks his tooth, backs over some spikes and pops his tires and all the bad luck in the world happens to him.

Also... the big faced girl is a classic. :D

I think that Tony is such a talented actor and helped make Wings the awesome show that it was. :)

I love the episode where Davis Lynch first comes to Nantucket (as a possible "Sandpiper" investor) and he goes out with Helen...and Helen gets Antonio to operate her lunch counter while she's gone!

Antonio is HYSTERICAL in his sleeveless undershirt, trying to get the customers to order his homemade Italian dishes like Veal Piccata and Biscotti....and getting FURIOUS with them when all they want are things like hamburgers and donuts! That bit was a true Antonio CLASSIC! :lol:

I always love the few times the guys would imitate Antonio. 'Let's get him, girls!' Also, the whole thing with his fascination with the Mary Pat Lee show and his reaction when he found out she was dating Roy. There are so many Antonio moments, it's hard to list them.

I like when he buys the leather shoes that don't fit. That is hilarious to see him walking around like that because Fay says they look sexy on him!

Another Antonio moment I liked was when he ate Bob's jelly doughnut. "I'm sorry", he says "I've been having a lot of sex."

In those "Mary Pat Lee" episodes, I think that it's hilarious the way that Antonio will suddenly come out with a female phrase like "You GO, Girlfriend!".

Yeah, I love all those moments!:lol: I also love the one where he's wearing Fay's husband's clothes from the 70's..."Oh my God, I just ate a Rolaid from the 70's!"...I just love the way he delivers that line! :lol:

In watching the early "Wings" episodes again (before Antonio joined the cast as a regular), you can really see what an asset Antonio was to that series.....as funny as those early episodes are, you really miss the guy!

I think mine are pretty much the same as everyone else's favorite moments!

-when Antonio is taken hostage by Bob
-any scenes with Carlton
-not being able to form a coherent sentence around Casey
-operating Helen's lunch counter

i liked the whole episode "Honey, We Broke the Kid." With Deke and Antonio "going out" and Antonio had no clue he was gay
