Yeah, think about how many other stories could be told, other characters who survived, different perspectives that could be explored. There is almost an unlimited amount of material to draw from.

Read a book over the summer called The Passage. After the first third the writer completely abandoned all the original characters save one and jumped forward 125 years. It worked beautifully. Point is, in a world full of zombies and survivors you can do a lot of different things and introduce a lot of new characters. I mean, who says the second season even needs to feature Rick?
