I agree. Also if the writers are good a strong fun adventurous Genie can fly just fine with or withou a reg Man. She has Kevin, most of her fans are happy with him, and in that group are some LnL forever folks like myself that would love for some thing to get tied up with LnL before the end of the show or before Genie leaves the show. There is a number of fans that don't like Luke at all, so there is that. I just don't understand why they can't write her in a dynamic fun way..leading lady way.

: an awkward attempt at some Laura recast. I

: Genie deserves the exact same shot. She's

: And Laura doesn't need Luke. There were
