That's the perfect reason to split the actors via episode. If not necessarily the writing, then definitely in editing. For example, Greg Nicotero on Talking Dead spoke about how they had a bigger makeup crew than usual, and they were working nonstop through the entire shoot. By the time they were done applying makeup, they were starting to get extras that were coming in to get the makeup removed.

Just because the show is a cash cow doesn't mean they have an unlimited budget.
