In a very special livestream event, in honor of the late Jackie Zeman (Bobbie Spencer), several of her General Hospital co-stars participate in a tribute to their longtime friend and colleague.
Joining host Michael Fairman will be: Rick Springfield (ex-Noah), Brad Maule (ex-Tony), Kin Shriner (Scott), Sam Behrens (ex-Jake), Tristan Rogers (Scorpio), and Tamara Braun (ex-Carly).
The actors will share stories of their time working with Jackie, and their remembrances of this beloved and iconic member of the GH family. Zeman had celebrated her 45th anniversary with the daytime drama series back in December of last year.
Jackie passed away just over three months ago, and while the soap community was devastated by this loss, we come together on Thursday night, August 31st to celebrate her. Join us live beginning at 8 pm ET/5 pm PT.
Make sure to 'subscribe' to the Michael Fairman Channel for upcoming livesteams, celebrity interviews, events and more.
Simply the BEST!!! Jackie and Tony Geary were the best ever brother-sister combo ever on daytime. Nurse Spencer was a big part in making GH the best soap ever...a family and community . Beautiful and talented, she had our hearts with Aunt Ruby. Love her...those were the DAYS!!!!!
I remember Jackie setting up the fireworks display with Luke when she first came on the show.
True
Beautiful tribute to Jackie
@@user-eh2nz4ri1e oh yes it’s very 😞
I agree ☝️
Big thanks to Michael Fairman and all friends of Jackie who appeared in this special tribute. We fans really appreciate you sharing stories and insights that help us put her loss in better perspective.
Did they give Jackie a tribute on the show or was that only for the large nurse?
@taroman7100 they haven't addressed her death yet. We're still waiting.
@@taroman7100nope not yet Carly thinks her mom is still alive cause they have not done nothing yet. I sure hope they do so us fans can say goodbye. I had just saw her doing the nursing ball then found out she died so sad
I just started watching again and have to catch up. I 1st watched at 8 yrs old in 1963 with my mom. I would come and go over the years due to a,busy life❤
@4:45 I was there!!! I was there!!! My mom took me and my sister to see Tristan Rogers and Jackie Zeman at Brooklyn's A&S dept store in 1981 when they were making those personal appearances! Me and my sister had a good time that day!!!
Seeing these actors from General Hospital bring back such fond memories.
💯
Kin is the coolest dude on daytime, and for me Brad Maule is one of THE greatest actors in TV history. Whoever approved killing off Tony (and so many others) needs their head checked.
This was such a lovely tribute to the fabulous Jackie Z. Hard to believe we will never see her again.
And gosh, Tamara is so gorgeous. Hasn't aged a day in 20 years. Same exact thing happened to me when my best friend died, with the dream. Same dream and peaceful feeling.
I so agree with Tony's death being a huge mistake!
actually brad maule ( tony jones) asked for his character to be killed off
@@sue450 Good to know! Thank you!
Who is siting behind Kin eating?
@@JRAMSEY000 It's Kin's partner Trish Ramish.
Bobbie and Luke came into town and everything was different in Port Charles ever since. They knew how to party. Bobbie was such a great addition to the show. She was a excellent actress and will be missed by all of us.
I agree. Bobbie and Luke’s arrival to GH transformed the show to something very different and special.
Jackie was always one of my all time favorites. Even when the show hardly had her on, I always thought about Jackie and Bobbie and how she needed to be there. RIP sweet Jackie, your fans will always love and miss you....
So nice to see co-workers say such nice things about Jackie.
Bobbie was the bomb!
where is genie francis and tony geary....that is bs that rick springfield had to leave...he just did not want to stay on...what an asshole
Thank you for this. I'm currently reliving the 80s on GH and Bobbie, Luke, Scotty, Laura, Noah, Robert... It was a time for us to be alive. I was in my early 20s and obsessed. Today at 63, I'm getting obsessed all over again. If the ptb at ABC realized how many of us there are, a boxed set of the 80s and 90s would make a fortune! While the original fans are still alive. This made me miss my late mom even more. She loved GH and all of these men, just like me. This was very sentimental and personal. I loved it. ❤
It sure would!
Too many storylines for just one box set, but they could try a bi-monthly set. Like january/ february 1980 set, then if that sold well, continue releasing them. Although Dvds are slowly going the way of vhs tapes.
Me too!! My kids were born in 78 and 79 and being home with them I got back into it. Had started at age 8 with my mom. I miss my mom too when I watch it. I'm 68. Would LOVE Dvds of 80s and 90s bc I still do dvd playerd!!! Baby Boomers!!!
@@jonibrown4427I was gonna say, "does no one remember mom watching Dr. Steve Hardy and the rest when they were knee high to a grasshopper?"
The 80's on GH were the BEST times.
As a gh fan from the80’s, thanks for doing this. Really miss seeing her.
I’m 34 and have been watching soaps all my life. I remember back in the 90’s it was Jackie Zeman and Brad Maule that pulled me in. She shined and I was a fan from then. My first memories were of Bobbie and Tony in the brownstone. May she rest in the sweetest peace ❤️
It's so sad. Jackie zeman was a fixure on GH. One that the fans never got sick of seeing.! Rest in peace beautiful Jackie AKA Bobbie. We your fans will always love you. We'll miss your bubbly presence. I'll be praying for her family and friends.
I still cry when I think about B J s story. Amazing acting!
Unforgettable
This was a beautiful and deserving tribute to our dear Jackie. You are so right, Michael, about Jackie was deserving of an Emmy. That she never received one is one of biggest travesties in Emmy history. 😊
That only shows how currupt hollywood has become.😢
Jackie Zeman, l watched her on General Hospital for 45 years, she was Amazing and wonderful. My prayers and thoughts go out to her daughters and family and friends. Jackie, will be missed. This was a excellent tribute for Jackie, thank you all so much for doing this. I hope they will do a tribute on General Hospital also.
Kin you will probably never see this, but back in the 80s my son and I were vacationing in L.A. huge G.H. fans. We got to come to the set and a taping. You came up to my son (10 yrs old) his hair was just like yours was then (spiked) you rubbed his hair with your hand and said "hey nice hair"! So kind and so funny, we all laughed so hard. Thank u for that, meant alot to a 10 yr old and me. Also his cousin passed away of cystic fibrous and Leslie Charleson was so kind to him, that is her foundation. Was such a fan of all of you and the entire show. Loved Jackie and Bobbie! Thank you all!!!
How nice for the family that they all did this! She will be missed!
What an amazing tribute to Jackie! I loved seeing everyone again. It was great to see Sam, one of my favorites ❤
Great tribute to Jacklyn Zeman.....You are sooooooo missed. Can't wait to see it again
Truly miss her on GH. Such a beautiful woman and actress. Thoughts for healing for her family and friends. Thanks for these tributes💔
✨ Oh my goodness. I am saddened by this news about Jackie.
✨ I absolutely loved her character (Bobbie).
✨ For many years I loved GH.
✨ My Favorite Characters Were: Rick Springfield 🤩
Tristan Rogers (Robert Scorpio)
SN: I used call Tristan Rogers my Australian Cousin 😇😂.
Anna Devane
Scotty Baldwin
✨ OF COURSE I LOVED ANTHONY GEARY aka Luke
There were so many Characters that I loved on GH.
I am sending prayers to all of Jackie’s family, friends, and loved ones.
✨ May the Lord continue to bless each of you. 🙏🏽❤️❤️
Truly an incredible human to have everyone say she never had anything bad to say and to help people in scenes..
So sorry I missed this! I've watched GH since 1966 so remember all these wonderful gentlemen and Jackie very well. I just saw Rick in concert here in Omaha on Wednesday night. Great show! 4th time I've seen him. Thanks so much for coming here again. Love "Automatic". Thank you to Kin, Tristan, Brad and Sam also for your remembrances of Jackie. Thanks, Michael, for doing this for GH fans.
Loved Jackie Aka Bobbi Spencer. She was a classy women and will be missed💜
I watched this beautiful tribute LIVE but I wasn't able to be in the chat, unfortunately. Thank you Michael & Kin for putting this together. Thank you to all of the great former GH cast members & Tristan for sharing your special memories. I loved Tamara's story of Jackie, after her passing. I laughed & cried during this hour.
I had the pleasure of meeting Jackie once, many yrs.
ago. She was so lovely, friendly, bubbly, gracious and
down to earth. We bonded over our shared passion
for dogs. I miss her presence on GH, what a lady💓
I will miss her so much it was great to see a moral about her
I wasn’t able to watch this live - thanks so much for keeping this up on UA-cam. I was incredibly shocked when I heard that Jacklyn Z died. She was just one of those people who I thought would live (close to) forever. She had red hair before it was a popular hair color to have. I admired her work on GH - loved seeing her with every incarnation of Carly. Her pivotal storyline with Brad (BJ’s death) was a landmark in soap opera history. I loved watching her work with Kin, Rick, Jake, and the character of Ruby. So many good memories that GH has provided for us over the decades. Tremendous actress and actors.
brrad maule was incredible during the nervous breakdown.
This is for you Jackie. You were truly respected, and truly loved.❤🙏🏾🕊
Im still shocked that shes gone. She didnt look one day sick. This is why we wear make-up!! I loved her story lines. I will miss you sweet lady. Ive been watching all soaps on 7 at the age of 8. Its hard to watch your favorites die for real. xo
Ms Zeman played her character so well.
Oh wow I didn't even recognize Robert Scorpio or Rick Springfield! Scorpio was one hot man back in the day when he first appeared on General Hospital! My favorite seens were the ones with Jackie working with Tony Geary! So funny that time when Luke wanted to be alone on the boat with Laura so he let all the air out of Scotty's tires! Barbara Jean grabbed up the lug wrench & hid it in the bushes. Then when Scotty came back couldn't find it & asked the girls if anybody saw the lug wrench. Bobbi says "what's a lug wrench" knowing very well she hid it in the bushes! lol I just loved how close a brother/sister realtionship Luke and Bobbi had on set!
She was the best ever. RIP Jackie. ❤❤
I remember being SOOOO Excited that she was cast on GH after I had loved her on OLTL !! LOVED Bobbie Spencer and I sure HOPE they do her justice when they do a special tribute episode especially for Bobbie. I assume it has to be in the planning!!
Michael, Kin and all. Thank you so much. I shed a few tears.❤
It was wonderful to see Brad Maule again!
My thanks to all of you for sharing your memories and feelings about Jackie. Her zest for life and big heart came through in her portrayal of Bobbie. My sympathies to her family and friends who are missing her physical presence. My thoughts are similar to those of Tamara - the love and spirit remain and surround us.
Thank you all. Jackie was and always will be a legend.
That was a fantastic tribute to Jackie Zeman who played Barbara Jean Spencer on GH. Bobbie was Luke's little sister and she was a great prostitute turn nurse on the soap general hospital but in real life the people who knew her had only nice things to say about her. She will be missed😢. According to these people she was also a great person.
Even if Rick doesn't remember Bobbie faking blindness to keep him, I remember that! I also remember what Tristan was talking about, regarding the scene where they had a contest for King of the disco or something like that, it was a silly scene but they did play it well, he's right:))
Thank You Mr. Fairaman for this wonderful tribute to Our Beautiful Jackie Zeman. She will always be OUR BELOVED BOBBIE SPENCER R.I.P Jackie.
Sure miss her on GH. She was one am awesome actor. Thanks Kin
Good Lord, I remember having mad crushes on every one of these men! The storyline on BJ's death...the writing and the acting still remain unmatched on any soap. Heck, no movie actor or actress making millions ever affected me as strongly as Brad and Jackie (along with Kristina and Jack) in those scenes. Unforgettable performances. Don't want to believe that beautiful lady is really gone.
Thank you! What a beautiful tribute! RIP Jackie ❤
Finally had a chance to watch this, what a fantastic, touching walk down memory lane reminiscing about the one and only Jackie Z. Loved seeing Brad Maule again, miss him as Tony. Rick Springfield doesn't seem to age, great to see him. Sam Behrens was before my time as a fan of the show, but nice of him to come. Good to see Tamara Braun again, and of course the legends Kin Shriner and Tristen Rogers. Great job leading the discussion, Michael. Thank you so much for doing this, I thoroughly enjoyed it. Jackie was part of the backbone of GH, she'll be sorely missed!
Thank you for this. Still can't t believe she is gone. What great memories they all had of Jackie. Everyone looks good. Love them all but so great to see Sam,Brad and Rick! Thank you again Jackie we love you!!!!!
Jackie was an amazing actor and everything you all said about her showed in her spirit. I’ve watched General Hospital since the first show and always like bed her story line.
You she was a TRUE LEGEND since 77 til the present sadly miss in our town im super glad this guys pay tribute 2 jacklyn now you know general hospital is definitely going ALL OUT 4 THIS DIVA rest in peace ms jacklyn ❤❤❤❤❤😊
Beautiful Tribute!
This was an incredible gift to the fans. Soap fans know that you watch for so long that the characters start to be as important as your family and best friends. You go with them through the ups and downs, and many times their problems offer respite from the problems we face.
I first saw Ms. Zeman when I was kid. My mother watched General Hospital, yet I was the one that became the lifelong soap fan. I remember Scotty and Bobbie when they were dating, and Bobbie was viscious (in a delicious manner) toward Laura. I remember when she was married to Jake. I remember when she was married to Dr. Jones. I remember when she was married to that evil man that terrorized several people in Port Charles.
Bobbie grew as a character, just as I grew up and went through life changes.
Jackie's passing is a blow to the fans, and I'm so sorry for her family and friends. Fans will come to UA-cam when we need to see Bobbie. I know how hard it is to be in the situation where someone you see regularly is no longer there.
Thank you to everyone who participated. This was such a tremendous gesture to the fans. Thank you.
These are my favorite og actors from GH! Such nice guys! So sad, Jackie is missed.✌️
Sincerely felt tribute. Great seeing, though unfortunately under these circumstances, Brad Maule and Sam Behrens pay tribute to Jackie even though they worked with her decades ago. Blast from the past for some of us viewers... Everyone's recollections were warm; each expressed an affection for Jackie Zeman which came through. A loss for those who knew her in real life and for those of us who have memories of her from a wonderful bygone era on GH. Always loved her and the Brownstone scenes....
Thank you Michael for this wonderful tribute to Jackie Zeman. I had the pleasure of meeting her at a fan event and she was just a sweetheart. She will be sorely missed. General Hospital is not the same without her sparking presence.
Beautiful tribute
Thank you all for sharing the best of Jackie. She
Thank you for having the tribute
Just love these men. She was so lucky to have worked and known these men. She will be missed, loved her so much. Thank you for sharing this with us. Glad I found you.
Great job Michael. Amazing actress 👏 ❤️ 🙌
Thank you Michael for putting this together for her fans and her GH family RIP Jackie aka Bobbie God Bless 🙏🙏🙏🙏
I loved Bobby have been watching this show for 38 years and I miss her on the show, when I heard she died I cried, eventhough I never met her, thank you for this show
Such a sweet tribute by Kin. Jackie was foundational to GH. Great actress playing a solid, great character.
We love you. Jackie Zeman you are a good person we will miss you forever thank you to all that was in the zoom and sharing your experiences with the fan Bobbie Spencer will be greatly missed on the show forever rip BobbyIe Spencer thank you for all you have done rest in peace Jackie Zeman❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Such a great tribute!!! I started watching in high school 1980...I rem the actors pretty well.....I was fortunate to have met Tristen (my fist bump buddy), Jackie, my ring sister, Anna and more.....she was very sweet....Tristen and Anna were cool, too!!! I am soooo lucky to have met many of the cast....it was a great experience.🥰
I CANT I JUST CANT WATCH THIS RIGHT NOW IM NOT READY...TOTALLY CRYING 🥀💔😪 WATCHED HER MY WHOLE LIFE 🙏 📺❤💋
Thanks Sam for coming. Everyone else too.
So great to see Sam! I love them all. They honored Jackie so beautifully ❤
@@user-dianejcmlSo true.
This just came up in my UA-cam feed. How nice of all of you to participate and speak of Jackie. I am 55 years old and grew up with the General Hospital crew with Luke, Laura and Bobbie. She was a wonderful actress and you men were wonderful leading men. God bless you all.
This was so great to hear all the stories from these fellow co-stars. I just really wish the show would get on the ball and address her character one way or the other. I think a recast would be awful considering how much she owned the character of Bobbie. They really have no choice but to write her out in death, it would be the only way to do it IMO. It really needs to be done soon...
Writers' strike...
@@birdsfan57 Someone is writing the show. It hasn't stopped production so the strike is no excuse for it not being addressed...
@@Julieglam3 I think they're trying to get Tony Geary to sign on for an "ark" that will address her death and it's aftermath on all the characters. It's also possible that some of her castmate's emotions were still too raw to attempt to address it onscreen sooner.
The rat pack of GH... the G.O.A.T.S! Loved this tribute. ❤️
This was a beautiful tribute to Jackie Zeman. Thank you so much! She was beloved. Really enjoyed hearing the stories and seeing the familiar faces.
I love that Kin told that Murray The K story. I remember working at my first job in radio in the mid-80s when I learned Jackie had been married to him.
I didn’t get to watch this live, but I look forward to watching all of it. Jackie was awesome and I can’t wait to hear everyone’s memories of their time working with her over the years and your friendships.
Loved listening to all of you!! We all Loved Jackie! Sure hope the show does a tribute to her because she sure deserves one ❤
So awesome to see and hear how many lives Jackie touched on the set and also in our lives watching gh for yrs..I've been watching since 1977
Thank you all so much for this. It is a real tribute to Jackie that all of you shared your memories with us. I watched all of you talented actors during this time on GH. I looked up to Jackie as the feisty, smart curly haired redhead as there were so few curly redheads like me on tv.
Such a lovely event. Thank you for this. Tamara’s dream story was so beautiful.
It’s so great to see these legends together talking about Jackie. She is part of the reason I’ve been watching for 48 years:
Thank you all for doing this.
I missed it live, but I will enjoy hearing this.
The BJ storyline of Tony & Bobbie giving Maxie BJ's heart was excellent & gut wrenching. So, so, so sad!!! Very well acted, especially by Jackie!!!
Michael, Thank you for doing this. Watching from the UK and loving all of it. Jackie Zeman was a beautiful person and greatly missed. ❤
Thanks guys for the tribute
No one talked about the story line between brother & sister Luke Spencer (Tony Geary) & Bobbi Spencer {Jacgueline Zeman) Was so AMAZING! How they always watched out for each other. Close siblings. Jackie dedicated her whole life to GH! She deserves a "Special" tribute/memorial from GH set! That's the least they can do! They (GH) should have thanked "Jackie Z." for their high ratings. Heaven gained a gorgeous angel 😇 Jackie Z. Thank you! for being such a "GREAT" actress! I've been a "loyal fan" back in the day. To Jackie Z's family & friends sorry 😔 for your loss. And to all her "fans" sorry 😔 for our loss. Rest In Peace "Jackie Z." 🕊️ Love, 💕 Della R.
This is just lovely!♥️♥️♥️
Thank you Michael for doing this! Great to see all of these guys!
Thank you to all who participated. I remembered Jackie from when she Lana on One Life To Live. So I had an opportunity to watch her grow as an actress.
Truly amazing you all shared what she meant to you and how much joy she brought you not only on a professional level but spiritually. May the beautiful memories of Jackie live on.
These beautiful people and oh so talented artists have a treasure trove of memories of the fabulous Jackie Zeman. RIP beautiful lady ❤🙏✝️
It's so good to see everyone, the 80's were GH's golden times. I pretty much stopped watching after '85 -86, the show just wasn't what it once was after that.
I was addicted to GH for about 25 years. It was a hard habit to break. Really enjoyed seeing all these great men who I watched every story of. Thanks guys. I have great memories of that time in my life. Was sooo thankful when we got our first VCR and could tape the shows! Haha Jackie was amazing and a joy to watch. Loved her giggle.💕
Great tribute to Jackie. She will be truly missed. Great seeing the actors who are no longer on GH. I missed them too
I remember Lana McClain w/ Jameson Parker on OLTL!
From a distance as a soap opera fan Jackie Zeeman always seemed so vivacious in her love for Bobbie and General Hospital. A great supporter of the genre.I was sad to imagine this positive force gone. Jackie did not seem like the type of person to die.
Jackie Zeeman: A cheerleader for all. As it seemed to me...
I love you, Rachel Ames. My all time favorite who endured so much at the hands of Mrs. Nelson, baby blackmailer in 1971. My happiest soap day was when Audrey walked out of her prison cell into the arms of her baby having beaten the murder rap of her ill advised babysitter.a moment to remember. .
Jackie & Kin: I love Smoke House with their prime rib more than either one of you!
I watched this, and it was a wonderful tribute. I was in college in the fall of 1980 when it was Luke and Laura. i'd watched Days of Our Lives since the late 1960's, but the student lounge would be jammed every day - boys and girls, tuning into General Hospital. This went on for the entire year and probably the ones after, but I transferred to another school so I don't know. It was very nice of Ms. Zeman's co-stars to pay tribute to her. May she rest in peace.
Nice peek of Kin's lady! Love seeing Trish on GH! She has always been memorable on the show! Glad her role has been expanded!
Thank you for doing this. The memories are beautiful
Thank you Michael and the rest for this wonderful tribute to such a wonderful person. I've been a long time fan of GH and Jackie's loss still makes me sad. Just had to say even though I've never met her, she was always one of my favorite actresses.
Beautiful tribute to Jackie Zeman all around. Tamara's dream- I've had dreams with people I've lost and it confirmed that they are all around me and still keeping watch and so I can absolutely relate to the peace Tamara felt with that dream and it is a gift. Those who cross over know how we're doing and what we need. Kin was obviously such a close friend for decades, I loved the interview he and Jackie did on State of Mind with Maurice, and how wonderful of Kin for helping to put this all together and honoring his long time friend, Jackie, but the blonde woman in Kin's house, in the background, was really champing at the bit to be seen in this video and doing everything she could to be noticed, and was a very distracting presence.
Michael this was so fantastic of you to do. How great to see everyone and hear what they had to share. Of course Kin. But to see Tristan, Tamara, Brad, Rick, and Sam.....so great...
It was a special time back in the day!
Thank you for this! It was a beautiful tribute to a beautiful soul! ❤❤❤
Thank you all so much for doing this! Such beautiful & fun memories. She was truly a blessing! 💖💖💖
Michael, another beautiful tribute❤😊
Jacket you are so missed RIP 😢
