There's a thread here with an interview with Knauf and this is brought up. Basically HBO told them to trim the characters before beginning season 2 so they had to drop Gecko and the twins even though he had plans for them, he also mentions Lodz was killed in season one for the same reason.
I can understand there would be higher costs for the makeup for a character like Gecko, but it's strange that they cut characters from season one, but then just turned around and introduced whole new characters in season two - like (SPOILERS) Samson's ex-wife and her new husband.
