      UNCENSORED QUOTES OF THE WEEK:

      I am cool with it, but they dropped my story recently and put me on the back burner. I am not working right now. I am popping in for one show every couple of weeks. I hate when that happens. I like it for a couple of weeks, 'cause I get the break. But then after a couple of weeks, it’s like, ‘C’mon. I want to work.’ I have a feeling they won’t really have a nice story for me till the fall. You also know how soaps are. We have such an enormous cast. I think that Y&R has a knockout gangbusters cast. There is only so much air time and everybody needs to have their turn at bat. We have to pass it around.

      —Genie Francis sounds off on her lack of storyline in a recent Michael Fairman ON AIR, ON SOAPS interview

      Translation: These darn Y&R vets are cutting into my scene-chewing time!

      What I noticed with me is; they do not play me heavily in spring and summer, but they play me really heavily in the fall and winter, which is fine. That is when the adults are home. Right now, the show just brought on a whole lot of young people for the summer, who are really good. So they are turning up the juice on the younger storylines, which is the way to do it, and it’s smart. I am a little involved in that, but not too much. But, Genevieve will be back.

      —Francis in the same interview

      Translation: I think they’ve been on this show longer than I have!

      "I think Elizabeth Hendrickson is a really wonderful actress. I know Nancy Lee Grahn, she is also a wonderful actress. But… Becky Herbst, I would love to see her win, to be honest. She has done some wonderful work! I will tell you the year I did win; she was nominated alongside me as well. I have to say she came to me with a full heart and said, ‘I am so happy for you, Genie. It has been so many years and you deserve it.’ She came to me and put her arms around me and I hugged her and said, ‘Your time will come. Your chance is going to come.’ You are young
