Recurring Role
A recurring character is a fictional character, usually in a prime time TV series, who frequently appears from time to time during the series' run. Recurring characters often play major roles in more than one episode, sometimes being the main focus. They may be contrasted with "regular" characters, who typically appear in every or almost every episode of a series.

Sometimes a recurring character eventually becomes part of the main cast of characters; such a character is sometimes called a breakout character.
