: Only one thread about Genie on the board so
: it
: seems people are just accepting it now.
: Don't know about twitter. I think they were
: prepared to some backlash and were willing
: to just let it run it's course.

: I just wanted to say that if FV were to be
: let
: go, I would bet that a new EP might want to
: reconsider bringing Laura back. After all,
: they just parked her in France. They didn't
: kill her off. So maybe there still is a
: chance...a small window of opportunity to
: save face and redirect the show.
:
: Would Genie even want to do it? I guess
: that depends on what the plans were for
: Laura, the commitment, her personal
: situation at that time. It also would
: depend on why they let her go in the first
: place. Was it a budget problem or something
: else? Lots of people move on when contract
: talks stall, but it isn't done with the kind
: of brutality and surprise that Genie just
: endured.
:
: It got me to thinking. Why would Genie have
: so much difficulty with FV? Why would she
: have had problems with JFP? Aside from
: contract negotiations. an EP has the prime
: responsibility to keep production moving.
: Anyone who throws a snag into the wheels is
: a problem. They operate at warp speed over
: there. There is no rehearsal to speak of.
: You get a call to come to the set, you zoom
: up there, shoot your scene, and you're done.
: Someone who requires more attention (hair,
: make-up, wardrobe, etc) could be perceived
: as a problem. It could be something as
: simple as that. So, maybe a new EP who
: would be more tolerant would be able to
: handle that if it were a problem. I don't
: know anything about Genie's situation. It
: just seems so strange that an EP would fire
: a star without any justification, throw his
: writers into a tizzy, and alienate a huge
: fanbase.
