‘General Hospital’ Releases Tearful Promo for ‘Remembering Bobbie’ Tribute Episodes
General Hospital is unveiling its first look at the previously announced tribute episodes to late star Jacklyn Zeman with “Remembering Bobbie.”

As viewers will recall, Zeman, who played nurse Bobbie Spencer for 45 years died in May of 2023 after a short battle with cancer. The actress and character will get a two-episode tribute beginning Wednesday, January 10, and concluding on Thursday, January 11. In the promo released by ABC, Laura tells funeralgoers (and viewers), “Bobbie Spencer was an experience.”
As the crowd takes these words in, we’re shown archival footage from Zeman’s years on the show as the beloved nurse and sister to the notorious Luke Spencer (Anthony Geary). Among the highlights are Bobbie’s early years in the field as a nurse, and her final appearance at the 2023 GH Nurses’ Ball.

As the tribute’s teaser logline states, “Bobbie Spencer’s life is celebrated as her friends and family say goodbye. Plus, Carly gets some closure and Laura remembers her friend.”
