Hiatus is their break. When the break is over they make one episode after another. One scene at a time. It all gets done on schedule in that frame (which we aren't entirely clued in on for this paticular break) and with proper management a dozen or so episodes make it to air in time without a hitch.

There's only one show on television that could probably go without a hiatus despite being animation and they do it anyways (South Park) but that's because everyone needs their nap.

Now I'm wondering how a wage interacts with a hiatus. Do they still get paid or is it put on ice while they don't produce anything?

I've never had a job like that if you can tell. holidays were my "Hiatus." and by holiday I mean a day off.
