Mayim Bialik made Call Me Kat fans emotional with behind-the-scenes footage of her late co-star Leslie Jordan.
The Jeopardy! host shared a clip on Instagram from the Fox series, showing Jordan's chipper demeanor at work.
The video begins with a masked Jordan striking a pose for the camera, making an off-camera Bialik crack up. In another part of the montage, Bialik says, "Hi Leslie!" while the actor is on the soundstage, and he responds with a smile, "Oh, hi!"
It didn't take long for fans to comment on the sweet video. "This show brings me so much happiness. Miss him. Love you. You are helping so many of us," wrote a fan.
"How can I miss someone I've never met as much as I miss Leslie!! 💔💔💔," lamented a fan.
"This brought tears to my eyes. 💕," said another.
A fan noted that the show's way of writing off his character Phil, by having him marry Jalen (John Griffin) and move to Tahiti, felt apt for the actor. "He went out in such a Leslie Jordan way tho. Loved that guy 💜," they wrote.
Another viewer commented, "Think about him and miss him everyday ❤️."
Jordan died on October 24, 2022. He suffered from a sudden cardiac dysfunction, which made him lose control behind the wheel and crash his car into a building while on his way to the Call Me Kat set.
During a recent appearance on The Jennifer Hudson Show, Bialik shared that the cast found out about Jordan's passing while on set waiting for his arrival. "It was a sudden thing," she recalled. "We were all at work and waiting for him to show up at work, so it was very, very, very complicated to have the whole crew there and the whole cast."
She added, "We were a family."
