Vanessa Marcil won't do recurring either.
Interesting how I never see her bashed for it.
VM gets bashed for constantly coming and going and the storys get all messed up for her annual exit instead of signing n for more than a year..and I agree it F***S up all the story's because they revolve everthing around brenda and then they have to scrammble to fix it all again after she departs as usual.
Not the point. She NEVER gets bashed over refusing to come back on a recurring basis. Never. Same way I never saw Robin Strasser or Julia Barr attacked for it.For some reason only Genie gets gruff for wanting to come back only on a contract basis.
I'm not bashing GF but can someone tell me what's the differnce between recurring and coming back for short arc's because she has no problem doing that ..Is it a money thing? If you're recurring, you get paid for the day's work, so basically you're a ay player waiting to get called in for an assignment.
If you're on a contract, however briefly, you get paid a set amount regardless of how many days you work. So basically you have a guarantee instead of sitting around wondering if you're getting a paycheck or if you should be out looking for something else.

Genie gets paid very well for her short contracts. Since she said years ago that she expects to be paid what her leading man is paid, I have a theory that Genie gets paid the same amount as Tony does whenever he's on. But that's the reason why she doesn't stick around because they won't ever pay her long term at that rate.
Genie needs to come down to earth.

How funny is it that Genie fans are so hoping for Finola to lose her contract in hopes that Genie will then get one by default. She'll still be the same Laura Bora when back and if she's hard to work with like I heard that won't change. Somehow Finola losing her contract won't mean Genie will get it, I don't think granting contracts works that way.
Who the hell said Laura fans were hoping Finola was fired? All anybody is doing is speculating IF she leaves will they money be filtered to bring back Genie. Same way Genie leaving in 2002 cleared up money for Vanessa to come back on an expensive contract at the same time she left.
Oh please they have brought plenty of new cast members on with contracts after Finola. If they really wanted Genie they would have brought her back with or without Finola having a contract.
Yeah I don't see this as a Genie vs. Finola thing. I'd like them both on canvas. But I've already heard rumors that they want to put RB on contract.

Well right now she's sitting at home doing nothing, oh wait she is off promoting a diet program that most likely won't work.

Genie was big at a time when major players didn't do recurring. A lot of the old school major vets have had to take recurring because the money's dried up and they have no choice. But Genie has a choice. She's got a very rich husband and isn't hurting for cash. She can afford to hold out I guess. She just can't see Laura as another Lucy, Kevin or Bobbie. She sees Laura as a major character that must have some kind of set story when she returns, even if it's short term. I don't blame her one bit,in fact the constant coming and going's are annoying and would like to see Laura back in PC full time with her kids and NEW LOVE INTEREST, so sick of all her arcs being about Luke.

I don't see why it's a big deal. If an actor (or any professional for hire) can afford to turn down anything less than what they want or what they think their time is worth, more power to them. Not everyone is so lucky. Exactly

I don't think Jack is ever returning to this show on contract.
I don't either. And I wouldn't want him to. I want Frisco in and out, just enough time to make up with Maxie, grab Felicia, and hop on a motorcycle out of town and into the sunset. If the drops are true that RC's been laying the groundwork in hopes of a Frisco return, it's probably for a short arc. The Hallmark series he and KW are regulars on film on location in Canada from November through March.
* sits with you*
Make room for me!
