Genie Francis was "front and center", and written great storylines, all the time. She was raped to the soundtrack of "Rise", by Herb Albert. She was charged with Murder. She was 50% of the phenomenon known as "Luke and Laura". And then...she somewhere along the line...became "Luke's love interest". Anthony Geary's side kick. I, personally, was never a great fan of either Genie or the character Laura, but I know inequality when I see it, and this WREAKS of it. I hadn't watched GH in quite a long time, and just recently checked in to see how Steve Burton's return would be handled (hope springs eternal that Stone Cold will be resurrected as Jason Q, as opposed to Jason Morgan). I think that Steve's return was handled well, boosted ratings, and may have contributed to more of the Sonny/Jason show, and the demise of "Laura". Until the actresses on GH are treated with the same respect the actors are, I am OUT.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864344470910760864.post-7615512011925816282018-01-22T19:25:50.445-05:002018-01-22T19:25:50.445-05:00I totally agree.

There are (were) leading ladies on other soaps that were always front and center and always nominated when awards season rolled around. But have they ever really wrote for Genie a storyline she could sink her teeth into and show exactly what she is capable of on screen?<br /><br />I almost want to say when she returned from cassadine island and luke was mayor and saw her from the balcony. But they dropped the ball with that.<br /><br />Maybe when Lulu was sick and they introduced Nikolas as her son?<br /><br />I really like her. I wish they would give her that big great "grand dame" storyline that she is capable of. <br /><br />Instead...<br /><br />I know she has given us great performances. and I know she has had storyline, but is there any one big great "yes!" storyline that comes to mind for you that was written to make her shine?<br /><br />PS. I am old school on not on twitter. I am sending a letter via snail mail. Or maybe a valentines day card that says "I Love Genie"davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16260570056875039463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864344470910760864.post-60120960586343165512018-01-22T16:33:55.169-05:002018-01-22T16:33:55.169-05:00Thanks for posting that, Karen.
