I'm all teary now. No offense to the other actors, but JJ really is the only Lucky. So glad to have him back.

Jonathan Jackson was by far one of the GREATEST actors on GH ever! His role as the "real" Lucky Spencer from back in the day was dynamite! He earned this award and two other Emmys he got later on!

I got hooked on GH when I first saw Tony Geary and Genie Francis in 1981. I fell in love with Jonathan the first second I saw that kid, and he has had my heart ever since. How many young men win FOUR Emmys?!

Now, he's gone. I don't like how they did it, and I'm heart broken he's gone. I still hope he'll come back later. I adore little Aiden, I'm glad he's still playing the part, and I see Jonathan in him in so many ways.

@waterlilyqueen I just checked. They were Erin Torpey (OLTL) and Courtland Mead (Y&R).

I wish I had seen who the other nominees were. I hope I can find it on the internet.

Adorable. I cried too. Even at this age JJ had such a good heart.
