I hate to be pessimistic, but I don't think they care. They figure they can ride it out and that people will eventually give up. They rode out the dust-up when they cancelled AMC and OLTL. i don't know what would've to happen to get them to bring her back under contract. I certainly think that everyone should keep up the noise. That really might be the only hope.

: I'm sort of excited. This is the first
: response from anyone except "unnamed
: execs" that called the petitions
: possible un authentic bots. So for Nathan
: Varni (exec for GH and Scandal and a couple
: more) to be the first to break the silence
: with a response tweet to Genie's tweet
: (first one to GH) and the pod cast -which I
: need to go listen to-seems to be Big and
: important. Of course they could be blowing
: smoke. The 55th is coming up and I've been
: raising Cain about how are they gonna
: celebrate 55 yrs w/o Genie..I hope they
: aren't sucking up for that. If they get her
: to do clips etc for that and then put her
: back out to pasture I will go nuts on
: twitter and NEVER go back to GH..might not
: go back to ABC..lol. One other (prob. crazy
: idea) I was tweeting Roseanne about
: Genie..posted some old pics..asked her to
: give a shout out.. I just realized Nathan is
: in charge of Roseanne's show.. she's sorta
: opinionated. Maybe she got in his ear.
: Anyway, I think we need to keep the foot on
: the gas or even increase enthusiasm. Genie
: said she'd come back for a good story,
: meaning she didn't have to be on contract
: but wasn't gonna do standing in a corner
: holding a cup of coffee 6 times a yr. ~~~
: Ginger, I do think they misjudged the push
: back. I'm not sure what the original reason
: for dumping her to recurring (other than
: reducing cost and maybe they thought they
: could have a little race w/ her Ned but on
: Recurring. Since Wally, Jon and Her would
: then all be same amount of time.. But she
: walked. Anyway..we'll see what the future
: holds. Wally has tweeted he hopes she comes
: back. others are starting to post things
: too. We need to stay loud or get louder.

: Sorry, but this is garbage. They had a
: story
: for Genie, and they took it away from her.
: They married her to Kevin, and they started
: a story about her running for mayor. I
: don't know what is going on over there. I'm
: not watching the show any more, but they
: have not treated Genie well, and this is
: just a made up story to soothe her fans who
: are very upset. Maybe they are backpedaling
: from a bad decision, but I would like to see
: what they are going to actually do before I
: got my hopes up.

: I just listened to the portion of the
: podcast dealing with.
:
: Host: A lot of people are wondering what
: in the heck is going on with Genie Francis.
: Did we lose Genie Francis? Is she ever
: coming back? What's gonna happen to Kevin
: and Laura?
:
: Varni: Hopefully we have not lost Genie
: Francis. I know there's been a lot of
: chatter online and all kinds of different
: opinions. Um she is technically on
: recurring status, as everyone knows. What we
: want is a prolific, big story for Laura that
: deserves the many talents of Genie Francis.
: So our writers are thinking and working on
: that as we speak. And it's my intention that
: I hope we continue to have a relationship,
: as Genie is, you know, obviously a very
: important part of General Hospital and the
: General Hospital family. But, you know, we
: want to be able to service the talents of
: Genie and we don't want to, you know, just
: have any tiny little story where she blends
: in the background. We want a Laura centric
: story. So we are continuing to work on that
: and discuss that and hopefully that will be
: onscreen sooner than later. So we'll see.
