Reception
In 2012, Kate White from Inside Soap named Antonio as one of her favourite soap opera characters of the last 20 years. She stated "No list would be complete for me without a face from my favourite soap ever, Sunset Beach. I'm going for Father Antonio because he manages to encompass many of the things I love about the show. Father Antonio was the worst priest of all time. When he wasn't blaspheming in scenes where he got busy talking to himself, he was sleeping with his brother Ricardo's girlfriend Gabi and accidentally taping it." White added that Kiriazis was "stunningly gorgeous", which is why fans of Sunset Beach called him "Father Fit."

Famous quotes containing the word reception:
“Aesthetic emotion puts man in a state favorable to the reception of erotic emotion.... Art is the accomplice of love. Take love away and there is no longer art.”
—Rémy De Gourmont (1858–1915)
“But in the reception of metaphysical formula, all depends, as regards their actual and ulterior result, on the pre-existent qualities of that soil of human nature into which they fall—the company they find already present there, on their admission into the house of thought.”
—Walter Pater (1839–1894)
“I gave a speech in Omaha. After the speech I went to a reception elsewhere in town. A sweet old lady came up to me, put her gloved hand in mine, and said, “I hear you spoke here tonight.” “Oh, it was nothing,” I replied modestly. “Yes,” the little old lady nodded, “that’s what I heard.””
—Gerald R. Ford (b. 1913)
