"I was 11 years old when I started in 1993. Being placed with Tony [Geary] and Genie [Francis]…it was just incredible. It was such a gift for me. I’ll carry their influence over me for the rest of my life. To the crew, to all the directors, and producers, and writers, hair and makeup and wardrobe…over the years, ‘General Hospital’ has been like a family to me and I’m so excited for everybody there to get to celebrate this incredible, incredible milestone."~Jonathan congrats to GH for 50 years

"Jonathan Jackson is the finest actor I have ever worked with. We trust each other explicitly and there is nothing we can’t reach together."~Tony Geary on Jonathan

"He is an exceptional talent...Jonathan in many ways is like my first baby. My experience with him is how I knew I was ready to be a mother.""~Genie Francis on Jonathan

"I loved the beginning years of Liz and Lucky. I loved that relationship and working with Jonathan [Jackson]... Jonathan is amazing on [Nashville], like he is on everything."~Becky Herbst on Jonathan

"I would say that it makes it more profound and deepens it because we have such a long and powerful history together both as friends and as colleagues and actors on the show. Since Jonathan was eleven, he was my first and only son. To have him back has been really a joy for me. It is like a prodigal son coming home."~Tony Geary on Jonathan

"Jackson's artless, all-boy portrayal is a breath of fresh air."~SOD
"Jackson's performance was seismic, full of fury and anguish, and a soul-wrenching complexity that left us breathless."~TVGUIDE
"Make no mistake about it: Jackson was more brilliant and memorable than any other leading man in soaps."
"JJ's work on GH was transcendent...He delivered such emotional depth to the life of Lucky that we the viewers cried right along with him."
"With acting and everything else, it's less a process of me trying to do something and more me getting out of the way to let what's real happen."

For anyone curious as to where the title came from and further proof that JJ is actually really eloquent and intelligent, here's where it came from:

Quote:
You’re playing Lucky as an adult with a lot of history now. How is that for you?
When it comes to Lucky, it’s very visceral for me and very instinctive. So much of the character was what he was – the offspring of Luke and Laura. So much of who he is was based on the seeds that were planted from his father and his mother. For me as an actor, I don’t get too caught up in the intellectual side of a story, so much as, when you play a character day in and day out for years like I did, it’s like a second skin almost. It’s very close to you. So walking back in, I just brought who I am now as an adult into it. And it just felt really smooth and comfortable. I think that Lucky’s always been a paradox and a contradiction a little bit because he had the edge and the wildness and the rebellion of Luke but he also had the purity and the innocence of Laura. Even when he was helping Elizabeth through the rape and there was the purity and the romance, there was always this sort of con-man side of Lucky that came from his father that was always present. So I still feel like the foundation of the character is working from the contradiction and tension of those two realities within. Another thing as an actor is that you can’t act information and you can’t act history. So in terms of drug addiction and all these other things, those are things that exist, whether I relate them or not because that’s just what happened. So unless it’s something specific in terms of dealing with the addiction. I just take that and say yeah, that’s what happened and that’s what he’s gone through, and that’s that. But he can’t really perform that reality.

what's going on with them? Have they been getting actual scenes?

deep within me 02-15-2014 10:52 AM
YES, they are fighting over Emma's affectionate and want to be her girlfriend. :lol: So what they say to each other...that's not something you would want your kid to talk like that. :no:

eww gross. Really? What do they say?

deep within me 02-15-2014 11:01 AM
Spencer would call him names because he's not rich like him and is average guy so would be like why would Emma want to be with you when she could have prince? And Cam would call him names because of how snob he is. So yeah, so brats.
