If I’m Madison and I want to keep everyone safe and somebody is compromising that, what am I willing to do to fix it? Are we going to get to a place where our blended family will have to flee from the herd? That’s something that’s worth exploring. I’m curious to explore, especially if we make it to this boat and that becomes our base camp, who - when you get to a position when somebody you love dearly is compromising the larger group - brings about this strange duality. And the choice to release the zombies had a dire impact on the National Guard service people at the base. Exner’s question - what is family now? - we’ve seen our characters make choices that have impacted their neighborhood, other people that they’re connected to. There are a number of things I’d like to explore and we set them up, to a certain degree, in season one. Season one was about getting to know the family and seeing their evolution in the apocalypse.

They’re looking at each other differently as well. Ofelia has realized that her father was a monster and, in some respects, the loss of Griselda is almost the sins of her father. This tragedy, in some strange ways, has reaffirmed this connection between Madison ( Kim Dickens) and Travis and that will carry on as well. It’s going to be interesting to see how does Chris ( Lorenzo James Henrie) look at his father? How does Travis look at his son? How can they reconcile what happened and what Liza said had to happen and continue to love each other. We didn’t want to jump too far because there’s an obligation to see the aftermath of that and see how that impacts our characters as they try to wrestle with it. There’s too much emotional weight coming off of the finale and the loss of Liza and Griselda. There may be a time jump but it’s not going to be terribly dramatic. Where will season two pick up? Will there be a time jump? But we the audience know that’s not true and that will be the next blow that they suffer. But there’s got to be a place where this contagion hasn’t touched. If I were them, I’d be thinking that there has to be some place to go. They know the city has fallen and know things are incredibly bad and they know that this is happening in other states and potentially other countries but they haven’t had anybody say to them, “The world is over this is our extinction event.” That’s something they’ll have to process as they move through season two as well. They haven’t had the benefit of the CDC download. There are still things for them to discover. We’ll have more of a shorthand going in to season two. Even Travis has had to shed some of his humanity for the first time, which was his great struggle. We’ve learned a lot: our characters in their apocalyptic education have learned what walkers are. We’ll pick up in a more accelerated pace when we go in to the season.

You also don’t want to ignore diehard fans of The Walking Dead and that’s important to think about moving forward. We always attempt to challenge those expectations and make the show as tonally specific and as different as it needs and wants to be.

Once you do that, you have to be mindful of that moving into subsequent seasons. We ended the finale with our first horde and our largest action sequence of the season. We reached the point of critical mass by the end of the season, which was by design. We purposely developed the show in a slower fashion than people are accustomed to. What’s the biggest lesson you learned from season one and how it was received?īeing aware of pace.
