season 2 had a really rough development
the initial plan was a proper continuation of s2 that was about clementine and christa's journey to a safe settlement and getting over omid's death/ loss of the baby
ending would've been getting to said settlement and having an interview type thing to see if they get to stay or not
kenny was planned to return right from the start but was supposed to die iirc, he is mentioned to have a new gf but it was never said what happened to her, it's likely she was a possible survivor
the edgy story was the third draft of the script and more or less was a much darker version of the game we have
a lot of cut plots were supposed to be in it, like luke vs kenny, and the final choice would've been clem abandoning aj in the snow for a better chance of surviving herself or lying down and dying with him
it's worth noting that s2e1 was mostly unchanged despite all the rewrites, which is why it feels the most like s1 tonally, because some of the og writers worked on it
