Antonio was my favorite. Every time I saw his character, as a taxi driver, I would start laughing. This was a very entertaining program. Well put together. Carol from California
I watched “Wings” because of Crystal Bernard. I followed her career all the way from her guest appearance on “Gimme A Break.” She hit the jackpot 3 times with hit series “Happy Days”, “It’s A Living”, and “Wings.” The late Brandon Tarktokoff recommended her to the producers of “Wings” because of her role on “It’s A Living.” He thought she was so funny on that show that he believed she would be the right choice for the role of “Helen.”
I've always liked Crystal Bernard. I enjoy her Texan accent. I liked her in the 2 Christmas movies about the Santa's getting married. I liked the episode which was a 2 parter where Helen moved to New York to further her career playing the cello. I think Thomas H. Church.was probably the funniest tho. 🙏💓😊
I never watched Wings when it was on in the 1990s, but I soon became a fan in the 2000s. In my case, the same can be said about Seinfeld. In the 2000s, Wings came on at night right before a show I liked, so I would often catch the ending of Wings. It was then I realized this show was funny. It was so funny I bought the whole series on DVD. The same can be said about Seinfeld. For me to like a TV show, I have to care about and like the cast, as well as the humor. Whether Taxi, The Odd Couple, Mary Tyler Moore Show, or any other show I like, I have to like the cast as well as the humor. I guess you would think it odd that I don't care for Cheers, even though Cheers and Wings are related in a way. The cast on Wings was great, but it was sad to see Thomas Haden Church leave such a successful show. So, in the 2000s, I became a fan of Seinfeld and Wings.
I took acting classes in high school. And I tried out for a major contact going for the role of Family Ties. I came in Second to the actor who did the role greatness. It hurt a little to come in Second.
He waa Antonio when he was the waiter. He became a cab driver to give him a reason to regularly be at the airport. And the theme song was only used for 3 seasons and the finale.
I wanted to move to Nantucket til I found out that the island created by the show is essentially fictional and the real Nantucket is just another Martha's vineyard
