rock out with your stock out

Am I crazy for thinking expanded universe content might sell? Like if they decided to tell the story of Front Man's game and what led to him being in the position he is now,I feel like that would be interesting, but probably not sufficient to make an entire new season. Though I guess there's no reason they couldn't make a special or something and also just throw it on Netflix. I feel like this is too successful not to continue in some way, and that filling in some backstory/showing another game might be easier/faster than immediately moving the show forward and dealing with the repercussions of this season.

Yea, I could see a second season if it heavily develops out Front Man’s experience with the games, giving an alternative experience through the games and a concluding perspective that is in opposition the 456’s. If they intercut that with the present story, it might have enough juice to make another 8 episodes.

I wonder if they’ll address the small private army the games employ in season two. I guess looking back at the games, not a whole ton of people are eliminated ambiguously, but some mentioned earlier that Ali could technically still be alive makes me think it might be interesting if other losers got conscripted. The games look like they’ve been operating for a few decades.
