Who knows what would have happened had Genie not been strung out and then mad as hell at Monty for saying it didn’t matter if she died, because Tony was the show. Monty regretted saying it and that it got back to her, and in the mid 90’s Genie made some public comments about how she felt bad about the way she left and knew it upset fans. The wedding might have been postponed too had she re-signed, as they already knew she was leaving when they filmed those episodes. I think the frenzy was bound to die down anyway, but I also think the whole mess with Laura and Jackie Templeton and David Gray would have best been avoided entirely. Had Genie stayed I don’t think we would have gotten Emma Samms either, and I think Holly really helped the show regain some ground with both Luke and especially Robert.
