probably because they need so many new extra casts they take on a lot of new and unknown actors to play parts

Happy Days had Ron Howard of course. But a string of guests got their start there, including notably Robin Williams..
Also. Steven Spielberg wanted an "unknown " for Saving Private Ryan. and chose Matt Damon, who had just finished work on "Good Will Hunting" with his fellow unknown, Ben Affleck. Who knew??😷
