Technically it's true. If you count up all the 70's, 80's and 90's vet talent on GH the show is more vet heavy now than it's pretty much ever been. For all the newbies on GH the cast is enormous and a lot of that cast has been associated with this show for two decades or more. Even the much maligned Sonny is a vet.

Yeah well lots of people are sick of Sonny.

Of course the biggest Monty fail was Lesley Webber. Ugh. Still don't get that. DA was still very popular, beautiful and a good actor. The way the pushed Lesley out WAY before her time was disgusting.

Anna, Alexis, Carly, Luke, Tracy, Sonny, Liz, all vets. You don't have to like them, or want them, but to say that GH doesn't give tons of airtime to it's vets is wrong.

The OP specifically referenced KW, KS, LH as the ones whose usage could be counted on one hand (yes, a hyperbole).

A hyperbole that actually makes no sense when you consider how much they've actually been on. Not as much as we want, but nowhere the blink-and-miss level people constantly whine about here.
