RAFAEL SILVA NAMED SPOILERTV’S READERS’ CHOICE “PERFORMER OF THE MONTH” FOR APRIL 2022

He was recognized for his work in 911: LONE STAR’s season 3 episode, “Riddle of the Sphynx.”

From SpoilerTV:

The Reader side was nearly as close as the Staff side with Rafael L. Silva beating Patrick John Flueger by just 4 votes. This entire round was a shining example of how important each and every vote is. Rafael has been nominated many times, but this marks his first win. His performance in this episode as a loving and supportive partner just trying to understand the struggles of the man he loves gave him some wonderfully deep material to work with. This episode also allowed him a really nice range to play with from the fun side of Carlos to the deeply caring side of him. He delivered a masterful performance that earned him a well overdue win. Rafael L. Silva is SpoilerTV's April Readers' Choice Performer of the Month.

Rafa has secured a place in the 2022 Performer of the Year competition that will take place in January 2023. 

SpoilerTV also shared a comment from a reader to celebrate Rafa’s win:

9-1-1: Lone Star’s Rafael Silva on Tarlos’ Breakup, Makeup, and Future

‘I see people on Twitter ask, ‘Why can’t these characters go through one day without suffering?’ And I’m like, ‘Well, if they don’t struggle, then you don’t have a show.'&#8…

After he and his boyfriend Carlos (Rafael Silva) were drugged by Sadie (Julie Benz)—the deranged former neighbor of his father, Owen (Rob Lowe)—T.K. (Ronen Rubinstein) found this his two years of sobriety had been taken away from him. So he took it upon himself to ensure that he would not suffer a relapse, going 90 Alcoholics Anonymous meetings in as many days. And he took a special liking to Cooper, a former addict who is committed to helping others in the community stay sober—so much so that T.K. asked him to be his first sponsor since moving from New York to Austin.

But after waking up one night to the sound of T.K. chatting away on the phone with Cooper, Carlos—who has consistently reiterated his desire to support T.K.’s sobriety—can’t shake the feeling that T.K. has chosen to exclude him from an important part of his life, which is exacerbated when he unexpectedly meets his boyfriend’s sponsor before one of their AA meetings. When Carlos lashes out later that night, explaining that he “feels like [Cooper]’s getting parts of you that I don’t,” T.K. responds without missing a beat: “Because you haven’t been there—and thank God you haven’t. I need people in my life that have, and if that means that sometimes I’m late getting home, just know it’s only so I will get home, Carlos.”

“This is the first time that we address Carlos’ relationship with not only T.K. but [also] T.K.’s sobriety,” Silva told Observer. “Carlos can choose to be there for T.K., but it has to be of T.K.’s own accord. He doesn’t know what it means to be addicted to certain substances, to go through withdrawal, so this is a world that Carlos has no idea how to maneuver through. And that confuses him and probably pisses him off, and he feels isolated, because Carlos likes to control, he likes to maintain order, and that’s where he gains a sense of self as well. So what happens when he can’t do any of those things? That’s the story that we were telling in this episode.”
