Genelle played Ernie, the good-natured owner of the Angel Grove Youth Center, the most popular hangout for Angel Grove’s youths, from 1993 to 1997. Birthday parties, school activities, martial arts tournaments, and community charity events were all frequently held by him.

He also provided complimentary drinks and food to his customers and assisted them if they needed anything. Ernie abruptly left the Youth Center after four seasons to conduct emergency volunteer work in South America, handing over ownership of the Youth Center to Jerome Stone.
