Even though General Hospital viewers often complain that the show's cast is so bloated that they cannot find enough time to fit their favorites into enough episodes, they still yearn for more. Half of the overused and overall boring characters could have taken a step back to allow others to shine.
Here are 10 characters who could potentially return to Port Charles, but the writers refuse to bring them back, no matter how much sense their presence would make.
Tommy Hardy
Tommy is a perfect character to bring back and build any kind of storyline around. The last time we heard from him was over a decade ago – a message that he had finished medical school – so the character can be built from the ground up. As Liz's cousin, he would fit right in with Port Charles.

British screenwriter Simon Stephenson has accused the makers of The Holdovers of plagiarism, saying its similarity to his 2013 script, Frisco, is “brazen”.
Mere hours before Alexander Payne’s comedy drama The Holdovers was garlanded with an Oscar win – Da’Vine Joy Randolph walked off with a Best Supporting Actress gong – controversy suddenly blew up thanks to a report published by Variety.
According to British novelist and screenwriter Simon Stephenson – whose credits include The Electrical Life Of Louis Wain – The Holdovers was “plagiarised line by line” from Frisco, a screenplay he wrote in 2013.
One of the scripts shortlisted for 2013’s Black List of unproduced screenplays, Frisco is about a middle-aged, grouchy pediatrician who strikes up an unlikely friendship with a 15 year-old patient. This, Stephenson has argued, is markedly similar to the premise of The Holdovers, in which a middle-aged, grouchy teacher (played by Paul Giamatti in the film) strikes up an...

Chace Crawford and Diplo are among the celebs who competed in the 2023 Malibu Triathlon!
The event was held to benefit Children’s Hospital Los Angeles on Sunday morning (October 1) in Malibu, Calif.
Also participating were Timothy Olyphant, Royal Pains actor Mark Feuerstein and his son Frisco, Big Brother‘s Corey Brooks, and model Parker Gregory.
Chace shared his advice for anyone thinking about attempting a triathlon.
“I think the advice is to start small,” he told The Messenger. “I was so intimidated by this but also intrigued just being able to complete it the first time around. I think I was in my early 30s, but you’d be surprised if you stay consistent with the training how far you can actually go.”
“At first, I remembered saying, ‘I can’t do this’ but as you progress, you really can surprise yourself and that’s totally part of the fun...
