It is unbelievable that she was able to hold her own in all these scenes with much older and experienced actors. I was watching an interview with her and she mentioned that at her young age she was in awe of Tony's acting ability. However, he said he was in just as much awe of her abilities. The interview with both of them was very good. She said she looks back and realizes how weird her teen years really were. She experienced her first kiss ever on the show in front of all of us. She appreciated the way both Kin Shriner and Tony Geary made her feel comfortable on the set.
Wow so cool I didn’t know this. Thank you
The writing was stupendous back then.
Watching Genie here and watching her on GH now, I am again reminded what an incredible talent she was then and is now. She was so mature at only 17 and was beyond anything anybody had seen then. Now she seems younger than she really is. I am still amazed by her, and so grateful that she and Tony can still show that chemistry! My God, they are good!!!
Laura was so good here. I like how she ended up listening to Luke's advice in the end.
Suseezq thank you so much for posting these.
dee rasta Thanks so much for visiting and dating hello!!
She probably worked a little too hard considering she almost had a nervous breakdown by the end of it. I've read so much about how sad & alone she felt growing up among all adults. How she would cry in her car and then she got addicted to drugs and yet still managed to pull herself out of it. I remember an interview where TG said they were both having drug addiction issues & at 33 it almost broke him & he didn't know how GF pulled herself free at such a young age. Pretty strong woman all around
Yes GF is God bless her. Love. Rosie
TG & GF r both amazing actors!! Have always loved Luke & Laura!!
Wow I didn’t know this!
Laura is a fool is she nuts Nov 16 ,2024
Luke told her not to say anything
Yes that's my girl Laura. That girl had more strength and brains than she realized. That could not have been easy. Subconsciously she knew to listen and maybe trust Luke at this time. God they were sooooo made for each other. Damn Guza for ruining the show the way he did.
For all his blunders and awkwardness aside, I think the casting of Frank Smith by Gloria Monte was ,....inspired!
He was terrific in "Tootsie"
He sure scared me when I was young. Sinister.
We never got to see them in Vegas.
Yea would been fantastic to see
A little part of. That
As per usual, Genie knocks it out of the park!!! I miss her and Laura sooo much!!!!
What a talent GF is. So mature for a young woman.
@@labannaosullivan4601 I am so glad she is back on GH. I'm even warming up to her marriage with Kevin now that Luke is dead. I must admit I was kind of hoping that the real Luke had been taken hostage back in the 2000's and replaced by a horrible man pretending to be Luke. Then he would return and profess his undying love for Laura, but I think I am past that fantasy, lol.
I agree... I have always thought that both Genie Francis and Jonathan Jackson were child prodigies.... they had information about human emotion and communication WAY beyond their years!!!!
oh wow yes. It was so disappointing when JJ was replaced. He was great & so was Genie.
He's reading the heck out of those queue cards.
I love the look on Smith’s face
Trying 2 figure out he’s gonna have Laura disappeared.
Laura I'm so glad you took Luke's advice. Good girl! :) I remember this back then. Even tho I was 5 I remember. I remember a lot of scenes with Luke and Laura. :)
LAURA, ARE YOU A LITTLE JEALOUS OF JENNIFER, WHEN FRANK SAY " I THINK MY DAUGHTER HAS BIG PLANS FOR LUKE". OH, LAURA, TWO MEN WHO LOVE YOU WHAT WILL YOU DO.
Yeah for some reason they made Laura older. Laura's birthday is in December and Genie's in May.. that falls in this time period, where Laura had her 18th birhday but not yet Genie... She is crazy good at any age. Naturally gifted (can access her emotions easier I guess) and obviously worked VERY hard at her craft. Did I say I miss her yet?!?! LOL
Thank you so much for lovely praise for GF / Laura. You are a very special person Miss Susezq you work so hard. You make a lot of GH fans very happy thank you so much for your love for GHYour dedication to us your viewer makes for a great day to watch TV. Thankyou Rosie
Did anyone notice that when Frank Smith mentioned that Jennifer has intentions for Luke, Laura was listening intently
With those darting eyes, again.
Smart girl Laura!! Damn near have everyone else a heart attack but did the right thing and followed Luke's advice! I was bricking it trying to remember how this played out!
The opportunity just fell in her lap, wonder if she would’ve went 2 him on her own?
This is a really good performance by Mr.Gains also, Genie just naturally has chemistry[I obviously don't mean romantic here lol] w every actor she works with... To me this was the REAL Frank Smith, I didn't care for the recast in 93'.
Yeh, too bad, he didn't really believe her apology sincere
Yes, the other Frank Smith, I think of as Burke Devlin from Dark Shadows. Ironically, Mitchell Ryan who played the '90's Frank Smith was replaced himself on Dark Shadows.
Jennifer wished Scotty good luck on his bar exams more than Laura did.
Oh ouch!
Which I guess is supposed to say that somewhere inside she does trust him even after everything.
😅😅😅😅😅😅 Laura ❤❤ so smart 😅😅😅
@1964nickel Me too.. and so nixes the idea that Laura is a whimp! GOSH I hate when people have only seen 3 minutes of sick Laura and thinks they know who she is!
Smart girl!
The girl portraying Jennifer seems to stumble over her lines a little. I’ve noticed it in past episodes. Still a cute, able actress...
I like Jennifer very much . She is very beautiful. Plus she is trying. Love. Rosie. Lisa Marie look if she did mess-up at times I still think that she did a bang-up job. God bless take care Good Luke in whatever you may decide to do in your future. We all miss you Love. Rosie
Smith calling Laura’s admission ‘your little confession’ is so annoying and grating. He’s such a great actor he is condescending to her and disingenuous as we view it, but Laura bought it. We fear for Laura here as she’s taken in.
❤❤❤❤❤

Genie's New Jersey accent sneaks out there over the phone "lunch with jennifah" LOL.
Well New York & New Jersey are next door neighbors
My favorite one of those Jersey words is later on in the next year she says "regardless" It is just too cute how that comes out. Look for it.
I remember the show wanted to be very careful about not giving Frank Smith an ethnic name . . . didn't want to offend anyone.
I wish they were invested in those characters and their history.. .but I just do not think they are.
*Exactly.*
Guess they didn't care by the time Sonny Corinthos came along/
Why is laura. Playing with. Fire oct 2024
