I want to say it’s because just because an actor is on a show doesn’t mean they are in EVERY episode. The same reason for why we say “so and so is in episode #” because they are actually in the episode. Just because someone is on a show doesn’t mean they are in every episode. Most shows, there will be a filler with only side characters.
