The Legendary Genie Francis

45 Years ago a young blond woman walked onto the set of General Hospital  and made her  mark on the soap world for years to come. 

That young girl was none other than the extremely beautiful , talented the one the only legendary Genie Francis. 

Genie  has so much grace , poise  and  class seeping out of every fiber of  her  being  and that's why we  fans  love  and  adore  her.

As Laura Collins she's loved,  she's lost  she's been  raped ,  also been kidnapped , framed for murder , been on the run became a mom and over came being catatonic.

However the biggest  roles  of  her  life was  being  grandma to  six kids and becoming  mayor  of  Port Charles.

On  the episode for June 22nd Laura was shown being  so  sweet  and kind  to  Violet who  was  suffeing  from poison oak.

Britt  called Laura a dead  woman walking  umm  rude.  And the  Quartermaine's gathered to  discuss ELQ.

Then we  saw  Scott receive information that could hurt  Laura .

All of the heavy hitters of Port Charles rallied around her when a hate campaign against her very quickly emmerged.

Scott informed her of  this fact which  lead  everyone to gather in support of  their  friend and lady mayoress.

We discovered that Bobbie accidently signed  a petition  to  remove  her  from  office. 

We  saw  a few  flashbacks  of  Laura with Scott and Bobbie.  But none  with Luke or her mom or  kids.

One  thing that bugged me was why  weren't  the rest of kids  who  play  her grandkids involved?  How  about  waking  up  Lulu ?

We  saw Scott propose to Liesl only  to  be  rebuffed. Carly and  Alexis confronted Ned to  see  if  it was him  who had  written the  OP-Ed .

We found out that Miss WU  knew  who had  set up  the  hate  campaign  against  her  and  told  Sonny.


Laura went to see Cyrus , and  she  confronted him on it.   He  owned up  to  it  and  typical  Laura  she  forgave  him.

At the  end  of  the show  everyone  gathered at  Charlie's  to  toast  our  Lovely Laura and Genie.

All in all  a great  episode to celebrate Genie's  45 th Anniversary.

Here's  to  many  more ...
