This has felt like a huge problem with the show, I agree. I can't help but wonder if contracts are some sort of issue, like they keep signing people for multiple seasons before even considering how these characters will fit into a storyline. The cast is just cripplingly huge at this point, it's literally an ensemble cast crowbarred into a drama/horror plot, and that just doesn't work. They don't NEED to start killing people off, they can just not bring characters back/relegate some to a single-episode cameo or a few background appearances, but right now they're just dragging everyone along for the ride, and everyone's characterization is suffering as a result.
