There's Something About Antonio... - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I know Joe, Helen, and Brian are considered the main stars of Wings, but I think Antonio should be considered a main star too. He has some of the funniest lines and scenes on the show. He also seemed to have this sweet, child-like innocense about him that none of the other characters had.
Some of my favorite Antonio lines...

"I'm starving! I've been having lots of sex."

"She's LYING!!! I'm clumsy, I'm inexperienced, I don't even know where everything is!"

"My, look how pink it is. Pink is pretty."

"Forgive me, I just thought we could use a break from your 'All the good men are married or gay' speech!"

"My goat knows the bowling score, Hallelujiah!"

"I'm the twister from Twister. Where are you getting 'escaped mental patient' from?

I felt bad for Antonio after a while. When he started the show he was a nice guy, making an honest living. You'd think he would have had girlfriends, instead of Edna, the big faced girl. I think Roy had more dates on the show than Antonio. I think that in the final episode, Antonio should have found love. Because in reality, he probably would have found someone by then.

I agree. He was such a sweet, sensitive, nice guy. He should have had a decent girlfriend. I wish they had paired him off with Casey the last two seasons instead of going with that "Antonio is a whiny, pathetic, self-loathing loser" twist.

Another funny Antonio line I just remembered: "Pizza? We didn't order no stinking pizza!"
