Just saw this. Andrea was a complete sweetheart. We used to banter back and forth on facebook. She was a great woman and a great mother to Kylie. I was floored that we lost her.
I feel so sorry for Andrea's daughter losing her mother. I know Andrea loved her so much. This was a great and sometimes fun tribute to Andrea Evans! I bet Andrea was watching, too, and loves that they all did this for her.
Tina and Cord storyline got me through a rough time of my life. At 11 & 12 yrs old I was in a hospital and wheelchair for a year. It got tough. I couldn't do much of anything but watching both John and Andrea was my light. I can't thank Andrea but John I want to thank you
Yes, I loved & will always love Tina & Cord. They are SOOO 1986. At the exact same tine I just loved seeing Tina be Tina. This was a great period for the show and Andrea Evans stood out. Her style & performance defined 80s One Life for me. I am grateful for that memory. For a 7 year old Tina was soaps. I would learn talents latter , however she was my introduction !
So true. Andrea was the true epitome and who could dislike her version as Tina. Mainly other actresses, I never cared for their version as the character, except for Andrea and Krista is a close second I liked
Andrea Evans was one of the reasons I became a lifelong One Life to Live fan. Tina was definitely a force when she joined the show. It was just a glimpse of whst was to come. When it was revealed that Tina was Viki’s sister, it was pure soap opera gold. Once Cord, Max, and Gabrielle were added, it was must see. It was in the early days of VCRs, and OLTL and Days of Our Lives aired at the same time. My mom had to switch the channels to make sure my sister and I had our shows. When Bo and Tina were paired, it seemed odd, but then it was the faux Bo. While I watched OLTL until the very end on ABC and then Prospect Park, I always yearned for Tina to return. It was such a gift that she did return. Of course, there were other characters that became powerhouse denizens of Llanview, so I don’t criticize them. Tina was just so magical that her presence was always missed. Sometimes, her line delivery was absolute perfection. I still remember when she and Gabrielle fell into Eterna, Tina stood up and said, “I’ve survived worse falls than that.” It was in reference to the Iguazu Falls. I had the chance to tell her, on Social Media, that I still remembered that line and her delivery. She was so gracious, and thanked me. I had not expected a response, and was literally giddy for a couple weeks. Thank you, for bringing this to fans. It was nice hearing John is still in touch with Barbara Luna. I loved her as Maria. One Life to Live still holds a special place for fans. Andrea Evans will always be a very special person, and she gave us a tremendous gift through her performance as Tina Lord.
It was an amazing tribute! Having Erika, Bob,John, & Fiona on screen made me emotional. This show was & still is amazing. It should still be on the air.
At the time when they ended one life to live . Actually it had higher ratings than GH. Never understood why they took it off😢sad still won’t watch another after this incredible show . Loved Andrea Evans aka Tina Lord ❤❤
It was so nice seeing some of the "fan" favorites, here, paying such respect & love for Andrea... She was so beautiful funny, & had such class ! It was like ""must see TV "". Ryan's Hope, All my Children, One life to live, & General Hospital ! Thank you to the host, who was kind enough, to do this.... To All the Star's in Heaven,, Thank You For making our lives, a bit brighter, RIP ❤❤❤
Wonderful tribute! Tina and Cord's storylines were among my very favorites to watch. I remember being so scared for Andrea Evans when I saw her talk about having a stalker and was sad when she left One Life to Live to be safe. She was one of my favorite soap opera characters out of the 3 ABC soap operas. I started watching ABC's afternoon soaps when I was 6 yrs old w/ my grandma. I may not have understood storylines, but I still enjoyed spending time with my grandma and having something to talk to her about. One Life to Live & All My Children were my 2 favorites until they were for some reason cancelled. I remember as a teen pretending to be sick so I could stay home from school if there was a really good storyline I just HAD to see or calling home from school saying I didn't feel well around noon so I was home in time to see something exciting. lol (though being I was actually a sickly kid, I didn't have to make up stories very often) I still miss watching both of these great soap operas and will never understand why they were dropped while G.H. was kept. I wish there was a soap opera streaming service that would replay these 2 shows from the beginning... I'd pay a monthly fee to have them back.
I was lucky enough to go to the 1985 daytime Emmy's, as a 16 year old wanna be actress, & I was so blessed to meet & talk with my favorite soap actors! I saw Erika & Robin, & they signed autographs & took pictures, & they had similar traits as their characters, but they were beautiful! However, Erika was ethereal & Stunning in person, & I couldn't take my eyes off of her! What an exciting day, & I will never forget it; it was like I got to be Cinderella that day! A few weeks later, Andrea Evans was at the Roosevelt field mall, in Garden City, but for some reason, I could not go, so, my sister got autographs for me, and the picture she brought home with Andrea was just stunning. Those eyes, that hair, her mischievous grin, and laugh. She was a memorable character, and I'm so sorry to hear of her passing; she will be missed greatly. Having just got a new angel, in you, dear Andrea.💜🥰🌟☀️🙏🎁🕊️✝️🥹💔
I met Andrea in an LA restaurant after the ABC series was canceled and the Prospect Park version was about to air. I went up to her table(she was dining with 3 other people), and I said 'Hello, I am a big fan of yours, are you joining the Prospect Park version?" She was very timid and meekly said, "no, Im not", I wondered why she was so timid, almost scared. One of the men at the table looked at Andrea nodding in approval. I interpreted it as - he was comforting her implying there are nice fans out there. Now I understand why, - dealing with a stalker for years and years. So sad.
My friend went to Argentina for a college semester in Argentina about 5 years ago and she showed me pictures of her boating trip through Iguazu Falls. I said joking "like Tina on One ife to Live?" and she said simply "Yeah". I was floored! She went on the trip as a fan of Tina. I never knew!
I started watching One Life since high school and my mom watched it longer than I had. We miss Andrea and will remember. It was so sad that One Life had to go off air. They should bring it back. My mom and I love One Life. We met a lot of One Life cast members but we never met Andrea. Andrea Evans R.I.P.
Andrea was a such a legend. So honored we got to call her a friend. She was a big supporter of the band and we continue to do what we love in her honor. Thank you for this wonderful tribute!
I had not heard of Andrea's passing. My heart goes out to her family and friends. And also her fans like myself. I really miss OLTL and their stories. Love you all....RIP Andrea.....Damn cancer, too many precious lives lost to this awful disease, including my husband....thank you for this tribute to Andrea...
Andrea Evans was definitely the reason why I watched OLTL. She was such a wonderful and beautiful actress. She made Tina an Iconic character. May she Rest In Peace.🕊
I am so sorry to hear of Andrea Evans’ passing😢. I miss my ABC soaps! Since ABC cancelled the whole daytime lineup, I only watch them one hour a day, 5 days a week (General Hospital). No need for cable, I’m at work when it comes on and never miss it. I watched the soaps online as they finally waned them out, but I sure do miss everyone. Occasionally GH is bringing in some of the oldies from the cancelled shows. I love it!
I have tears in my eyes 😢 Thank you for putting this together & thank you Andrea Evans wherever you might be for giving us fans so many memories. Her portrayal of Tina Lord Roberts will live on forever in our hearts & minds. I continue to rewatch old episodes & scenes & even after all these years I still love the character ❤ RIP beautiful 🙏🏻
When I heard about Andrea, I couldn't believe it. What a time it was in soaps! Next to Genie Francis and Meg Ryan, she was the best teen to adult soap actresses ever! What a sweet, cool person! Just a wonderful reunion seeing Erica, Fiona, Robert, and John. I wish the circumstances were different. The stuff she went through, tough woman. RIP Andrea; you really made an impact on daytime drama. Oh, I think the name if Gabrielle Medina is one of the greatest names in soap history!
This is incredible. Andrea Evans was so distinctive and memorable. You can visualize her right before your eyes. Erica Slezak, my soap favorite of all time elaborating in detail on Andrea's New York stalker is most enlightening. What a cross for Andrea to have born. What I did not know or remember is ditzy Tina putting all others to shame with her photographic memory leaving all her acting partners struggling.The photographic memory hs certainly got to be the key to success in every field! I would like to comment on John Loprieno in the video. John always seemed to be such a wonderful guy. You imagine he is Cord. Modest and stalwart. i remember when OLTL was at its end John was moving into college theater of some sort as a teacher. So here he is X number of years later having fufilled that plan photographed in his college office surrounded by posters of all the shows he has produced. I was in Play production in high school for 3 years, worshiped the drama teacher, etc and so this very much calls to me. You know John's many students, past & present love him! I also know a kind of jockular guy, Larry Heimgardner of Harbor College in Long Beach, CA who's career has been head of drama there for many years. He always seemed more a football coach which was kind of charming and I am reminded of him as I think of JL in the same role.
A beautiful tribute to Tina !! I Never missed a show , just loved her and other characters .. thinking about it had a crush on Bo .. thank you for all the good memories 🙏 Rip Andrea
This was an absolutely stellar and uplifting (and moving) tribute to Andrea- Michael, this was wonderful and I cannot tell you how much it means. Truly great job and I think Andrea would be so pleased-
Andrea Evans was one of the most beautiful female soap opera tv stars who been on One Life To Live for many many years and decades since she started as a teenager who had a long beautiful hair and a young look.She will be missed and our thoughts and prayers to her family, friends and all of the cast for her wonderful memories.😅😅😅😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😢
Bravo!! I too would rush home from school to catch the last 10-15 minutes of OLTL and loved watching during the summer. Andrea Evans is iconic with soaps. She will be sorely missed!
Thank you for a wonderful tribute to Miss Tina Lord Roberts a OLTL icon who has the most beautiful, sparkling eyes I’ve ever seen 🦋🩵🦋🩵🦋🩵🦋 Thoughts & prayers to Andrea’s friends and family 🙏🏻
I Loved Andrea So Much ! Wonderful Actress. SHE was an Icon in the time when Soaps got their due. Thank you for paying tribute to her RIP Andrea and Jackie Z😢
Thank you for this wonderful tribute - Tina , Viki and the entire One life to live family gave me so much joy - I am so happy Erika took the time to share her memories their time together - OLTL was a delightful roller coaster ride
I am ecstatic to be watching this. Love seeing all these wonderful cast members talking about the memories of and paying tribute to Andrea Evans as well as talking about some of the OLTL storylines, in particular the Faux Bo one. That was the storyline going on when I first started watching OLTL in 1988 and it was tragic to see Didi die in that storyline. I also loved watching the evolution of Gabrielle and how she and Bo got together. Seeing all these cast members on here shows me the magic between all of them is still there. We lost Andrea way too soon. Fantastic job, Michael. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.
How wonderful to hear all the lovely memories from her co stars. I miss this cast so much! Hard to believe the show has been off the air for so long, I still hold out hope. Great seeing some of our faves together to give the fans a way to celebrate the life of an iconic soap actress and give insight into the person she was.
My mom(not my real mom lol just in case people took it serious lol) Fiona ❤❤❤❤… she raised me the villain with a heart I am today 😝.Loved this tribute to Andrea ...Fiona and Andrea was my two favs.
... i just happened upon this on RUclips and i seen the picture of Vicki played by Erika Slezak (with whom i just loved her performance on One Life to Live) and began listening to the story. it saddens me to hear the passing of Andrea Evans who played Tina on the soap opera, but it also bought me joy in the fact of remembering Mrs. Evans performance on One Life to Live and ALL the joy that the soap opera bought me. Thanks for sharing this with us . I am sure Tina (Andrea) is stirring up things in Heaven now! c. peter morgan. 08-27-2023.
Wonderful tribute to Andrea Evans. I’m sad for the reason behind it, but it’s great to see so many people I watched for years come together to honor their friend.
Michael, thank you, thank you so much for doing this!! It was wonderful to see, former cast mates of Andrea. I loved seeing, Erika, Fion, John & Bob, & Ron!! What a fabulous treat!! This was such a great tribute to Andrea!! ❤❤❤
I’ve always loved Andrea Evans and Ericka Slezak!!! Both great actresses!! It is wonderful seeing Ericka!! She looks amazing!! I really want to see her on Y & R!!! That would be great!!! ❤❤❤❤
What a great loving tribute to Andrea Evans!!! I LOVED Tina Lord Roberts. I became a big fan at 13 years old. I would pretend to be sick just so I could stay at home from school to watch OLTL. Tina and Cord were and will always be my favorite couple on soaps. Andrea's character was sweet but yet sneaky and manipulative and loved money. I will miss Andrea so much😊😊😊
I loved her on that show. Sad to think that both her and Ben Masters (Julian) are gone now. I still get a laugh at the thought of her with the donkey and the smirk on her face.
Thank you so much, Michael for creating and hosting this tribute to our beloved Andrea Evans. A few weeks ago, when I heard from my best friend that lovely Andrea had passed away, we were both saddened, (more than we would have imagined), to read that. Andrea was a luminous soul so full of life, it is still hard to even believe that she has crossed over, I hope to a wonderful place. I was reminiscing with the same friend Tracy about the time, in May of 1986, when I was 7 months pregnant I developed a DVT in one leg, which made it painful to bear any weight at all on that leg for several weeks, and Tracy (who used to be my neighbor in Venice CA, and had moved back to MI) flew out to LA to be my nurse for a week while my other half had to make a work related trip. She was a life saver, but my fondest memory was that I was still watching OLTL at 1 p.m. every day, and while T was staying with me, she would watch with me, and she got into the show as well. On the show at that time, Tina had gone to TX, hoping to dig up some dark secret re Clint and the mysterious woman, Maria Roberts, and while Tina there, she met the sweet and handsome young man who would become the love of her life, Cordero Roberts. That was a nearly magical story line. Little did we know that this story line, which was just beginning, was the start of a unique and unforgettable soap couple who were wildly popular with the viewers for the life span of the show.
I am so glad you did this . I loved OLTL and it is nice seeing everyone. I did not know Andrea passed. She was so good as Tina. May she rest in peace. Such a nice tribute, I like to think she can see it.
This was very special. OLTL was always my favorite soap, and seeing Erika again is prize enough! But Andrea Evans was so iconic... Tina's fatal fight with Maria Roberts is one of my earliest, strongest memories from the show. I just couldn't believe how outrageous it was. I miss that sense of outrageousness combined with budget and superb acting. We don't quite get that anymore. OLTL in the 80s and 90s were the peak! And Andrea was a huge part of it.
I am so glad you brought back John, Erika , Fiona and Robert to talk about Andrea aka Tina Lord . I absolutely adored her and all. Tina def was my fav . Cord and Tina were fantastic couple on one life to live . It was a very sad day when one life to live ended . This was my last soap I watched . I grew up with my mom watching this fantastic show . Thank you Michael . Rip Andrea Evans 😢😢😢❤❤❤
OLTL never should have been cancelled. It was excellent and a cut above the rest in the way it covered social issues. It had HEART -- not just sex scenes like some others. Andrea Evans was ideal playing Tina. And I hope her sick stalker deserves the same hell he put her through. It is so sad when some actresses get stalked by such sick people. No one should have to live like that. And that Iguazu Falls storyline was one of the best! And then Tina getting Gabrielle's baby and interrupting Cords wedding by walking up the aisle carrying the baby.
Andrea Evans is why I fell in love with soaps. I was a wee lil gayby back then, but my earliest memories of “One Life To Live” was any scene featuring Tina. I was obsessed before I even know what that word meant with everything about her. The hair, the pouty red lip, the furs, that “dune…dune…dune…da dune…nah nah nu nu nu…” theme music that would under score her whenever Tina was up to something (how i miss the 80s) it was so good! I remember being so sad when she left the show, and finding out years later the reason why she had to go, I hated for her she went through all that but it was great to have a little bit of closure for the character having Tina return (with Cord) before the series ended. No shade to any of the other actresses that played the role, but Andrea Evans was THEE one and only Tina Lord Roberts to me. She will forever be my all time favorite soap diva. She’ll truly be missed. Thank you Michael for putting together this wonderful tribute & bringing her co-stars on to share their memories of working with her. RIP 💔🙏🏿
She was a beautiful woman. She did a great job. I loved her with Tina and cord. I love her with you acting with her sister she was just great. I’m sorry that she had to die so young what a beautiful lady
This was so thoughtful ❤and amazing tribute to the wonderful Andrea Evans we will miss her forever she was so great as an actress we love Tina ❤and Andrea
Love you Erika! Miss seeing you M-F! I did see you recently on Blue Bloods. You did a great job as usual! I loved Tina & Andrea too! Great to see Bob, John & Fiona too and loved each of your characters! I miss OLTL soooo much! Peace, love & happiness to you all!
One Life to Live was my favorite soap opera. Loved the actors/characters and the writing. There were some crazy plot lines, but they kept fans entertained for decades. It was one of the first soaps to feature people of diverse ethnicities with good stories. Agnes Nixon worked magic with this and All My Children. It is so nice to see some of my favorite actors speaking about the radiant and talented Andrea Evans. I was shocked to hear of her passing. She was the best "Tina". Her presence lit up the screen. RIP to her, and thank you Michael for hosting this event.
Looking forward to hearing tributes to Andrea Evans and more about her life from the One Life to Live cast. I am disappointed as I have watched more than 30 minutes and it seems so much time is spent visiting with each other. The actors are even talking quite a bit about themselves and also people other than Andrea. I understand these actors have a long history with each other, but they could have visited and shared other memories off camera, and saved this video for Andrea. At another time I would be interested in their experiences but not during a personal tribute. The letter ready by Michael Fairchild from Barbara Luna was lovely. Her words were heartfelt describing Andrea Evans as a person, an actress and in expressing emotionally how Andrea's life and death impacted her. I hope the letter reading changes the tone of this video.
Wow, I am late seeing this, Andrea was my favorite Tina, it's sad seeing this... May she rest in Peace... It is very good to see you Erika, you look very well!
Thanks so much for doing this! So many of us loved Andrea’s work! What a beautiful light she was in this world. One Life to Live was my favorite! She brought joy to so many people! Such a terrible loss 😢 Rest in peace sweet Andrea 🙏❤️
Both great great actresses who had such a bond to the audiences who gave far more to your audiences than you all ever received personally. The world was gifted with you all . Thank you .
Just saw this. Andrea was a complete sweetheart. We used to banter back and forth on facebook. She was a great woman and a great mother to Kylie. I was floored that we lost her.
I feel so sorry for Andrea's daughter losing her mother. I know Andrea loved her so much. This was a great and sometimes fun tribute to Andrea Evans! I bet Andrea was watching, too, and loves that they all did this for her.
Tina and Cord storyline got me through a rough time of my life. At 11 & 12 yrs old I was in a hospital and wheelchair for a year. It got tough. I couldn't do much of anything but watching both John and Andrea was my light. I can't thank Andrea but John I want to thank you
Tina and Cord were magical together! I am so glad you had them at that time in your life.
Yes, I loved & will always love Tina & Cord. They are SOOO 1986. At the exact same tine I just loved seeing Tina be Tina. This was a great period for the show and Andrea Evans stood out. Her style & performance defined 80s One Life for me. I am grateful for that memory. For a 7 year old Tina was soaps. I would learn talents latter , however she was my introduction !
Andrea made it impossible to dislike Tina even when she was doing bad things. RIP ❤
So true. Andrea was the true epitome and who could dislike her version as Tina. Mainly other actresses, I never cared for their version as the character, except for Andrea and Krista is a close second I liked
Andrea Evans was one of the reasons I became a lifelong One Life to Live fan. Tina was definitely a force when she joined the show. It was just a glimpse of whst was to come.

Thank you, for bringing this to fans. It was nice hearing John is still in touch with Barbara Luna. I loved her as Maria.
One Life to Live still holds a special place for fans.
Andrea Evans will always be a very special person, and she gave us a tremendous gift through her performance as Tina Lord.
Erika looks amazing! Thanks for this tribute everyone. ❤
She looks ageless!
Why is she blinking her eyes so much behind her glasses? Does she have a medical condition?
It was an amazing tribute! Having Erika, Bob,John, & Fiona on screen made me emotional. This show was & still is amazing. It should still be on the air.
I couldn't agree with you more, Michael! ABC really messed up cancelling this amazing show!
I cried quite a few of times during the interview..I'm glad Andrea' life was contented. God bless her and her family and friends.
Very lovely tribute to Andrea Evans! Truly enjoyed seeing her friends & co-stars from OLTL! 🥰
@michaelbollinger1129, They network needed to leave the soaps on 7 alone! That relly pissed off a lot of fans and the stars!
At the time when they ended one life to live . Actually it had higher ratings than GH. Never understood why they took it off😢sad still won’t watch another after this incredible show . Loved Andrea Evans aka Tina Lord ❤❤
It was so nice seeing some of the "fan" favorites, here, paying such respect & love for
Andrea... She was so beautiful funny, & had such class ! It was like ""must see TV "".
Ryan's Hope, All my Children, One life to live, & General Hospital ! Thank you to the host, who was kind enough, to do this.... To All the Star's in Heaven,, Thank You
For making our lives, a bit brighter, RIP ❤❤❤
Fiona’s voice brings back wonderful memories of the show. Her and Andrea were a dream team.
Erika looks fabulous. No Botox or anything fake. I was a fan of One Life to Live and Erika was my favorite.
Erika Slezak was great on One Life to Live. I enjoyed her character, Viki Lord and her many personalities.
Yes Viki was the truth 💐
Still is my favorite. Viki is family and Erika is someone I am just glad is still around. I'm always in her debt for being Viki for 41 years.
It was a wonderful tribute to Andrea Evans .
Wonderful tribute! Tina and Cord's storylines were among my very favorites to watch. I remember being so scared for Andrea Evans when I saw her talk about having a stalker and was sad when she left One Life to Live to be safe.

Tina & Cord!!!! They don’t make love stories like that anymore. 😢❤❤❤❤❤
Cord was very handsome.
Fine as frog 🐸 hair
I was lucky enough to go to the 1985 daytime Emmy's, as a 16 year old wanna be actress, & I was so blessed to meet & talk with my favorite soap actors! I saw Erika & Robin, & they signed autographs & took pictures, & they had similar traits as their characters, but they were beautiful!

Andrea slayed Tina!!! No one would ever play that role as well as she did. 🎉❤😊
100% Agree
Beautiful tribute. Ericka still looks good 💐🫶🏾
I met Andrea in an LA restaurant after the ABC series was canceled and the Prospect Park version was about to air. I went up to her table(she was dining with 3 other people), and I said 'Hello, I am a big fan of yours, are you joining the Prospect Park version?" She was very timid and meekly said, "no, Im not",
I wondered why she was so timid, almost scared. One of the men at the table looked at Andrea nodding in approval. I interpreted it as - he was comforting her implying there are nice fans out there. Now I understand why, - dealing with a stalker for years and years. So sad.
Sad such a portion of her life was taken from her
My friend went to Argentina for a college semester in Argentina about 5 years ago and she showed me pictures of her boating trip through Iguazu Falls. I said joking "like Tina on One ife to Live?" and she said simply "Yeah". I was floored! She went on the trip as a fan of Tina. I never knew!
@jaredbaratta8589 Lol!
@jaredbaratta8589😂😂😂
I started watching One Life since high school and my mom watched it longer than I had. We miss Andrea and will remember. It was so sad that One Life had to go off air. They should bring it back. My mom and I love One Life. We met a lot of One Life cast members but we never met Andrea. Andrea Evans R.I.P.
Thank you for responding
Your welcome
Andrea was a such a legend. So honored we got to call her a friend. She was a big supporter of the band and we continue to do what we love in her honor. Thank you for this wonderful tribute!
I miss seeing Erika Slezak on my tv screen!
Thank you John, Fiona,Robert Erika for sharing memories and stories...
I had not heard of Andrea's passing. My heart goes out to her family and friends. And also her fans like myself. I really miss OLTL and their stories. Love you all....RIP Andrea.....Damn cancer, too many precious lives lost to this awful disease, including my husband....thank you for this tribute to Andrea...
Huge fan, nice seeing you again, Erika!
Loved Tina and Cord! Bless you Andrea.
I STILL can't wrap my mind around that my girl Andrea's gone! LOVED her and ALL the daytime characters she played! And I'll NEVER forget them!
It was great to see the cast again & hear the stories of Andrea❤
Andrea Evans was definitely the reason why I watched OLTL. She was such a wonderful and beautiful actress. She made Tina an Iconic character. May she Rest In Peace.🕊
I am so sorry to hear of Andrea Evans’ passing😢. I miss my ABC soaps! Since ABC cancelled the whole daytime lineup, I only watch them one hour a day, 5 days a week (General Hospital). No need for cable, I’m at work when it comes on and never miss it. I watched the soaps online as they finally waned them out, but I sure do miss everyone. Occasionally GH is bringing in some of the oldies from the cancelled shows. I love it!
I have tears in my eyes 😢
Thank you for putting this together & thank you Andrea Evans wherever you might be for giving us fans so many memories. Her portrayal of Tina Lord Roberts will live on forever in our hearts & minds. I continue to rewatch old episodes & scenes & even after all these years I still love the character ❤
RIP beautiful 🙏🏻
Would you happen to know where Tina is? I know she faked her death and I wish she would just come back at this point.
Tina was honestly very modern. Viki was old school soap and Tina was super 1980's vampy lady. That dichotomy was viscerally entertaining!
A very good way of looking at it
When I heard about Andrea, I couldn't believe it. What a time it was in soaps! Next to Genie Francis and Meg Ryan, she was the best teen to adult soap actresses ever! What a sweet, cool person! Just a wonderful reunion seeing Erica, Fiona, Robert, and John. I wish the circumstances were different. The stuff she went through, tough woman. RIP Andrea; you really made an impact on daytime drama.
Oh, I think the name if Gabrielle Medina is one of the greatest names in soap history!
Liked both Andrea and Genie Francis. I felt Meg would act with her hands on ATWT...IMHO
This is incredible. Andrea Evans was so distinctive and memorable. You can visualize her right before your eyes. Erica Slezak, my soap favorite of all time elaborating in detail on Andrea's New York stalker is most enlightening. What a cross for Andrea to have born.

So here he is X number of years later having fufilled that plan photographed in his college office surrounded by posters of all the shows he has produced. I was in Play production in high school for 3 years, worshiped the drama teacher, etc and so this very much calls to me. You know John's many students, past & present love him! I also know a kind of jockular guy, Larry Heimgardner of Harbor College in Long Beach, CA who's career has been head of drama there for many years. He always seemed more a football coach which was kind of charming and I am reminded of him as I think of JL in the same role.
Great Tribute, Andrea was an incredible actress. I remember her from Y&R as Patty Williams and B&B. RIP Andrea, work well done!
I hope Erika Slezak's health is okay, I've noticed a lot of facial tic's. Andrea Evans was amazing.
A beautiful tribute to Tina !! I Never missed a show , just loved her and other characters .. thinking about it had a crush on Bo .. thank you for all the good memories 🙏 Rip Andrea
I truly miss One Life To Live
ABC network made a big mistake by taking All My Children and One Life to Live off the air.
This was an absolutely stellar and uplifting (and moving) tribute to Andrea- Michael, this was wonderful and I cannot tell you how much it means. Truly great job and I think Andrea would be so pleased-
Andrea Evans was one of the most beautiful female soap opera tv stars who been on One Life To Live for many many years and decades since she started as a teenager who had a long beautiful hair and a young look.She will be missed and our thoughts and prayers to her family, friends and all of the cast for her wonderful memories.😅😅😅😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😢
Bravo!! I too would rush home from school to catch the last 10-15 minutes of OLTL and loved watching during the summer. Andrea Evans is iconic with soaps. She will be sorely missed!
Andrea is an outstanding actor, loved her on One Life and her work on Y&R she will be sadly missed.
I agree 💯
They all look so great!
Didn't realize how much i missed these people until i watched this. Such a shame the show was canceled. I watched them from 76 until it ended 😢
Bob Woods looks good! He has aged very well!
Rest in Peace Andrea! I so loved watching this show. What a beautiful tribute!❤
Thank you for a wonderful tribute to Miss Tina Lord Roberts a OLTL icon who has the most beautiful, sparkling eyes I’ve ever seen
🦋🩵🦋🩵🦋🩵🦋
Thoughts & prayers to Andrea’s friends and family 🙏🏻
I Loved Andrea So Much ! Wonderful Actress. SHE was an Icon in the time when Soaps got their due. Thank you for paying tribute to her RIP Andrea and Jackie Z😢
I miss these people so much! Great tribute
Me too! It was like losing an entire family.
RIP Andrea Evans, she fought the good fight; Also, Tina & Cord was very good together!🎗❤
Michael, that was a delightful tribute to Andrea Evans! Thank you so much for making it happen.
Thank you for this wonderful tribute - Tina , Viki and the entire One life to live family gave me so much joy - I am so happy Erika took the time to share her memories their time together - OLTL was a delightful roller coaster ride
She was the star of the bar!!!!!❤😢
I just wish I could hug the whole show!! I am so very sorry for your loss and mine and all the fans and family!!
I am ecstatic to be watching this. Love seeing all these wonderful cast members talking about the memories of and paying tribute to Andrea Evans as well as talking about some of the OLTL storylines, in particular the Faux Bo one. That was the storyline going on when I first started watching OLTL in 1988 and it was tragic to see Didi die in that storyline. I also loved watching the evolution of Gabrielle and how she and Bo got together. Seeing all these cast members on here shows me the magic between all of them is still there. We lost Andrea way too soon. Fantastic job, Michael. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.
We miss all of you.
How wonderful to hear all the lovely memories from her co stars. I miss this cast so much! Hard to believe the show has been off the air for so long, I still hold out hope. Great seeing some of our faves together to give the fans a way to celebrate the life of an iconic soap actress and give insight into the person she was.
My mom(not my real mom lol just in case people took it serious lol) Fiona ❤❤❤❤… she raised me the villain with a heart I am today 😝.Loved this tribute to Andrea ...Fiona and Andrea was my two favs.
... i just happened upon this on RUclips and i seen the picture of Vicki played by Erika Slezak (with whom i just loved her performance on One Life to Live) and began listening to the story. it saddens me to hear the passing of Andrea Evans who played Tina on the soap opera, but it also bought me joy in the fact of remembering Mrs. Evans performance on One Life to Live and ALL the joy that the soap opera bought me. Thanks for sharing this with us . I am sure Tina (Andrea) is stirring up things in Heaven now! c. peter morgan. 08-27-2023.
Wonderful tribute to Andrea Evans. I’m sad for the reason behind it, but it’s great to see so many people I watched for years come together to honor their friend.
I miss one life to live.
Michael, thank you, thank you so much for doing this!! It was wonderful to see, former cast mates of Andrea. I loved seeing, Erika, Fion, John & Bob, & Ron!! What a fabulous treat!! This was such a great tribute to Andrea!! ❤❤❤
Thank you so much Michael Fairman
I’ve always loved Andrea Evans and Ericka Slezak!!! Both great actresses!! It is wonderful seeing Ericka!! She looks amazing!! I really want to see her on Y & R!!! That would be great!!! ❤❤❤❤
This was so lovely. So wonderful to have that beautiful letter and tribute from Barbara Luna too
Miss you all so much. I remember Andrea's earliest episodes she had that star quality right from the beginning. Thank you for this lovely tribute
I thought she was green (like Gina Tognoni); when she first joined, but both actresses (Andrea and Gina); quickly got to show on their own
What a great loving tribute to Andrea Evans!!! I LOVED Tina Lord Roberts. I became a big fan at 13 years old. I would pretend to be sick just so I could stay at home from school to watch OLTL. Tina and Cord were and will always be my favorite couple on soaps. Andrea's character was sweet but yet sneaky and manipulative and loved money. I will miss Andrea so much😊😊😊
Andrea also playing Rebecca on Passions was pure gold
Such a vixen
I loved her on that show. Sad to think that both her and Ben Masters (Julian) are gone now. I still get a laugh at the thought of her with the donkey and the smirk on her face.
Thank you so much, Michael for creating and hosting this tribute to our beloved Andrea Evans. A few weeks ago, when I heard from my best friend that lovely Andrea had passed away, we were both saddened, (more than we would have imagined), to read that. Andrea was a luminous soul so full of life, it is still hard to even believe that she has crossed over, I hope to a wonderful place. I was reminiscing with the same friend Tracy about the time, in May of 1986, when I was 7 months pregnant I developed a DVT in one leg, which made it painful to bear any weight at all on that leg for several weeks, and Tracy (who used to be my neighbor in Venice CA, and had moved back to MI) flew out to LA to be my nurse for a week while my other half had to make a work related trip. She was a life saver, but my fondest memory was that I was still watching OLTL at 1 p.m. every day, and while T was staying with me, she would watch with me, and she got into the show as well. On the show at that time, Tina had gone to TX, hoping to dig up some dark secret re Clint and the mysterious woman, Maria Roberts, and while Tina there, she met the sweet and handsome young man who would become the love of her life, Cordero Roberts. That was a nearly magical story line. Little did we know that this story line, which was just beginning, was the start of a unique and unforgettable soap couple who were wildly popular with the viewers for the life span of the show.
This was great I loved it thank you
Thank you for the beautiful tribute!
Beautiful tribute 😢😢❤
My favorite soap and these three actors were my favorites and of course Tina was who I had the hots for as a young man.
I am so glad you did this . I loved OLTL and it is nice seeing everyone. I did not know Andrea passed. She was so good as Tina. May she rest in peace. Such a nice tribute, I like to think she can see it.
This was very special. OLTL was always my favorite soap, and seeing Erika again is prize enough! But Andrea Evans was so iconic... Tina's fatal fight with Maria Roberts is one of my earliest, strongest memories from the show. I just couldn't believe how outrageous it was. I miss that sense of outrageousness combined with budget and superb acting. We don't quite get that anymore. OLTL in the 80s and 90s were the peak! And Andrea was a huge part of it.
She was my girl seeing this was a great honor to see❤
Thank you Michael for doing this. Andrea was loved by so many.
Andrea Evans went through hell with her real-life stalker.
So lovely!!!! Especially seeing “Vicky” 😃❤ She looks fabulous ❤
I am so glad you brought back John, Erika , Fiona and Robert to talk about Andrea aka Tina Lord . I absolutely adored her and all. Tina def was my fav . Cord and Tina were fantastic couple on one life to live . It was a very sad day when one life to live ended . This was my last soap I watched . I grew up with my mom watching this fantastic show . Thank you Michael . Rip Andrea Evans 😢😢😢❤❤❤
Thank you for posting this.
What a beautiful tribute 😢 for Andrea Evans..Nice to see John, Robert and Fiona, Erica...love always One Life to Live ❤
OLTL never should have been cancelled. It was excellent and a cut above the rest in the way it covered social issues. It had HEART -- not just sex scenes like some others. Andrea Evans was ideal playing Tina. And I hope her sick stalker deserves the same hell he put her through. It is so sad when some actresses get stalked by such sick people. No one should have to live like that. And that Iguazu Falls storyline was one of the best! And then Tina getting Gabrielle's baby and interrupting Cords wedding by walking up the aisle carrying the baby.
Thank you for this.
She was just two years older than me, she lived through so much in her real life, and I was heartbroken to hear about this. Totally heartbroken.
Thank you Michael! That was an absolutely beautiful tribute to a remarkable woman.
Andrea Evans is why I fell in love with soaps. I was a wee lil gayby back then, but my earliest memories of “One Life To Live” was any scene featuring Tina. I was obsessed before I even know what that word meant with everything about her. The hair, the pouty red lip, the furs, that “dune…dune…dune…da dune…nah nah nu nu nu…” theme music that would under score her whenever Tina was up to something (how i miss the 80s) it was so good! I remember being so sad when she left the show, and finding out years later the reason why she had to go, I hated for her she went through all that but it was great to have a little bit of closure for the character having Tina return (with Cord) before the series ended. No shade to any of the other actresses that played the role, but Andrea Evans was THEE one and only Tina Lord Roberts to me. She will forever be my all time favorite soap diva. She’ll truly be missed. Thank you Michael for putting together this wonderful tribute & bringing her co-stars on to share their memories of working with her. RIP 💔🙏🏿
She was a beautiful woman. She did a great job. I loved her with Tina and cord. I love her with you acting with her sister she was just great. I’m sorry that she had to die so young what a beautiful lady
This was so thoughtful ❤and amazing tribute to the wonderful Andrea Evans we will miss her forever she was so great as an actress we love Tina ❤and Andrea
😢. Tina was an amazing character! Thank you Andrea, for all the years of joy. I miss this show so much…
GOD BLESS ANDREA AND ALL OF ONE LIFE 2 LIVE VERY NICE TRIBUTE MAY SHE RIPARADISE
Love you Erika! Miss seeing you M-F! I did see you recently on Blue Bloods. You did a great job as usual! I loved Tina & Andrea too! Great to see Bob, John & Fiona too and loved each of your characters! I miss OLTL soooo much! Peace, love & happiness to you all!
One Life to Live was my favorite soap opera. Loved the actors/characters and the writing. There were some crazy plot lines, but they kept fans entertained for decades. It was one of the first soaps to feature people of diverse ethnicities with good stories. Agnes Nixon worked magic with this and All My Children. It is so nice to see some of my favorite actors speaking about the radiant and talented Andrea Evans. I was shocked to hear of her passing. She was the best "Tina". Her presence lit up the screen. RIP to her, and thank you Michael for hosting this event.
Looking forward to hearing tributes to Andrea Evans and more about her life from the One Life to Live cast. I am disappointed as I have watched more than 30 minutes and it seems so much time is spent visiting with each other. The actors are even talking quite a bit about themselves and also people other than Andrea. I understand these actors have a long history with each other, but they could have visited and shared other memories off camera, and saved this video for Andrea. At another time I would be interested in their experiences but not during a personal tribute. The letter ready by Michael Fairchild from Barbara Luna was lovely. Her words were heartfelt describing Andrea Evans as a person, an actress and in expressing emotionally how Andrea's life and death impacted her. I hope the letter reading changes the tone of this video.
My absolutely favorite soap I watched with my grandma❤️
How wonderful to see Erica again thank you for this very moving tribute wishing you peace and Light❤
This was fantastic. Thank you. Yes, One Life to Live was the underdog. But it was absolutely the very best soap ever!
I was very sad when All My Children and One Life to Live were cancelled.
What a wonderful tribute!! Great job Erika!!
Wow, I am late seeing this, Andrea was my favorite Tina, it's sad seeing this... May she rest in Peace... It is very good to see you Erika, you look very well!
Thanks so much for doing this! So many of us loved Andrea’s work! What a beautiful light she was in this world. One Life to Live was my favorite! She brought joy to so many people! Such a terrible loss 😢 Rest in peace sweet Andrea 🙏❤️
Both great great actresses who had such a bond to the audiences who gave far more to your audiences than you all ever received personally. The world was gifted with you all . Thank you .
Great Episode! RIP Andrea
