Love the Jackal,then and now.❤️❤️
Fully understanding that characters evolve and change over time, I think we can ALL admit that hyper, excitable, “clownish” Spinelli was FUN to watch. Soap stories have a tendency to be heavy and serious. So having a character like Spinelli as a part of the story often gave the viewers much needed moments of levity. He lightened the moment. We smiled or laughed because of him. AND... he brought out a side of “StoneCold” that practically no other character ever did. Jason was at times exasperated w/Spinelli but he was also clearly grateful to him and protective of him. Jason trusted Spinelli, confided in Spinelli and often treated his bumbling buddy like a little brother (something Jason never had). Serious, mature Spinelli is fine. But ADHD genius Spinelli was unique. Special. And THAT’S why we miss him.
Spinelli is one of my favorite characters on GH, in the last few months I got my mom to start watching GH. She walked in one day while it was on and she saw Steve doing a scene she said, "Wow, look at the intensity in his facial expressions, he's a good actor." She then sat down and watch the rest of the episode. If you see this Steve you are the reason my mom watched General Hospital now.
I can understand why Bradford was feeling quite a bit of burnout when he decided to leave in 2013. You have a very demanding, difficult character (and Spinelli is actually a hard character to handle and handle well) on a five day a week show for seven years. What starts as fun starts to get exhausting. It happens. Bradford needed a break away from the show. He wasn't sure if he would be back (and he has said he regrets not accepting recurring the first time when they offered it) but he just needed some R&R. With time away from the show, he realized he missed being on it. And when he came back, he started to have some fun with the character again. And that wouldn't have happened if he didn't take that clean break from the show. Sometimes with everything in life, that's exactly what you need. Take a break, get some R&R, and if you feel up to it, you will come back with a fresh, rested perspective.
Love both your characters.
Love Spinelli when he gets upset or humor.
It makes me smile. Thanks you too Jennifer 🤩
From Spellini growing up from being on speed he can reason through things. From Jason being Stone Cold to today, is that he can hold a conversations without grunting and facial reactions.
Spinelli has somewhat settled down, being married, having a child. That alone will change a character.
I don’t think he’s married to Ellie
@@foreverlonelygirl5775 they aren't, just extremely committed 🤣
YES! Jason doesn't sound right coming out of Spinelli's mouth! Stone Cold!!
Hi Steve, I want to know if you're going to come back to general hospital. Hi Brad I like your show but you so funny just like Jason. We miss you back on general husband😊😊😊
I kinda miss the times Spinelli like nicknaming all the GH characters most of all Stone Cold
While I understand the need for Spinelli to grow and change, they don't really make it easy for you. When your character moved back here with Ellie, I thought you were get some kind of storyline. Honestly I figured she would die on the plane
Right as she was returning to town leaving Spinelli to eventually find love again. But that didn't happen so I thought maybe we'd get to see your life with Ellie.
And to Sonny Mr. Sir!
As always another great episode, thank you for the entertainment.
Maybe it's time to put Spinelli and Maxie back together, especially now that Ellie broke up with him.
Maxie changed with age too, she is no longer ditzy.
Screech has passed away rip Dustin diamond 💎 love spixie jasamcome back together
Spinelli needs a good storyline. He's one of my favorite characters!
Spinelli grew up when Maxie Had the baby
Marie grew up too. She stopped being so ditzy, plus she fell in love with Nathan.
I meant Maxie.
I missJason, Sam, Spinelli and Maxie in that PH set. I love the new Spinelli though. Brad is a wonderful actor who has the capability of making my minds eye see that set when he’s on stage. There is so much wonderful history there. He was always a caring young man now he is a caring youngish man with responsibilities and a life I wish we viewers got to see more often. Could he at least be partners with Sam again and could we see them at work? I hope he encourages his friends to talk it out and reconcile. GH is just sad without JaSam and JaSamSpin.
Love you Honey 🎉🎉
change & evolution are wonderful. but CORE spinelli, although matured (i mean, he's a husband & father now) can still wield some iambic pentameter on occasion!! and he should!!
The actor is married, but not the character.
You look so hot today Steve with no hat on ❤😊
Can’t wait till you come to KC!!!
I guess they don’t realize Dustin Diamond passed away.
Maybe to change the dynamic of their relationship, like if Jason had a life threatening condition, but otherwise no.
I miss the old Spinellie
