Jackie Geary – The Goldbergs

The character Jackie Geary, also known as Adam Goldberg’s love interest on throwback comedy The Goldbergs, was recast after five seasons, which upset many fan of the show. Rowan Blanchard was replaced by Alexis G. Zall, leaving fans to wonder why that happened.

Initial rumors arose that the recast was the decision of the producers, but Blanchard was the one who passed on the season. The show semi-cleverly played off the switch by claiming that Jackie went camping and came back a “new person.”
