Supporting/Minor Characters that I think should’ve lived/lasted a little bit longer than they did.

Oscar and Axel: - I felt that they had a lot of untapped potential and should’ve at least been kept around a little bit longer, I think Oscar should’ve been killed during the prison shoot out in 3x11 and Axel should’ve been killed during the prison battle in 4x08

Lizzie and Mika: - I think Mika had a lot of potential to grow as a character and become a bad ass survivor. I think she should’ve been kept alive so that Carol would’ve had at least one kid that lived and she could’ve been the show’s version of Comic!Sophia. And I would’ve loved it if Lizzie had just ran away instead of getting killed so that she could return as a whisperer in season 9, being mentored by Alpha. I think that would’ve add a new layer of conflict for Carol and Mika (cuz she’d still be alive too)

Owen (The Wolf Morgan saved): - I think he could’ve become a good character if given the chance, and he already started to show signs that he was changing when he saved Denise in 6x09. It would’ve strengthen Morgan’s “all life is precious” motto if Owen had been rehabilitated and joined the group.

Jessie: - The only things dragging her down was her sons. She was already starting to show signs of becoming a strong survivor and I think she would’ve grown even more as a character if only her sons were out of the picture. Dare I say, she could’ve been almost like Carol, given their similar experiences with abusive husbands.

Paula: - I found her character to be interesting and I liked the dynamic she had with Carol. I wish she had listened to Carol and just ran, then showed back up later in season 7 or 8 and became an ally to Team Family and maybe have her die during the savior war or be a pike victim.

Gavin: - Gavin was the only one out of Negan’s lieutenants that seemed to have a conscience. He didn’t like doing what he did, but he did it out of fear of being killed by Negan. I think he should’ve been kept alive and become an ally for Team Family during the Savior war, then go on to join the council in Alexandria in season 9-10. I think he should’ve met his end as a pike victim.

Mary (Gamma) - I think it was a mistake to kill off Mary so soon, I wanted to see her interact more with Adam and become part of the group. I wanted her to be in it for the long haul and I think she could’ve done so much more.

D.J, Arat, and Laura: - I don’t like that they killed off all three of them, I think at least one of them should’ve lived to the end. I didn’t like how Arat’s death was handled, so I would’ve preferred if she survived that encounter with Oceanside and then become a pike victim later in the season instead of D.J because it would’ve been an amazing transition from her first big scene with killing Olivia in cold blood, to fighting to save the people in the barn who were once her enemies. D.J can take Laura’s death, but probably have more of a battle with Beta instead of being thrown around like a rag doll. And finally, that leaves Laura, whose character in the comics survived all the way to the end and also there’s no reason why Alden should have to be the only named savior left alive.
