Thanks Carm for the nudge. FOUND IT on Netflix ... just started watching Season 2.
LMAO at the password!

Woo hoo! A whole Bates thread that I didn't know about.

I'm interested to get your take on it Molly . Mal, Packy, McDazzle are any of you still watching it, any insight? I really hope that they don't kill Dylan off, I hope he just walks off into freedom. I hope Caleb is thrown into a shark tank.

I don't know if it would be your cup of tea Rumpole. It is very much about Norman's decent into madness, family dynamics, dysfunction and the ties of genetic mental illness. Personally I don't think it is written to blame Norma (the mum) but I do think she is a tide in the perfect storm which makes Norman a psychopathic killer.

It is interesting because it is out of time but it still places you back into the original movie "Psycho".

Hi Carm & everyone

I was able to watch 4 episodes yesterday, plus went back to watch finale of Season 1, first. OMG .. now noticing every single "mother" and giggling ... Norma needs a boyfriend, asap. Today is a busy one, but hope to get a few more watched. They are ALL such good actors it's believable.

I just looked at schedule for Monday & episode 1 will air before the new show.

Hi Molly

Norma needs a good therapist, a new set of genes, and a good whisky Spoiler alert the boyfriend situation doesn't go too well for her

Vera Farmiga and Freddie Highmore audition for Bates Motel


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xjzM1xnQLPA

I can't get it to post properly and I'm out the door in a few minutes so hopefully you can get there or someone (Rumpole will fix it)

This whole thing is great but Dylan's audition

Thanks for the vid, Carm! Ha .. didn't think I wanted to see them as real, their characters are TOO real. Such great actors. LOL at Dylan ... he's hired. I did not realize Freddie is an English actor, wow!

I finished Season 2 last night, great ending getting rid of the bad guys. Even Zane's sister was creeping me out. Then I realized she has Jodi Arias eyes. May watch a few episodes over this weekend. Can't wait to start watching the new season.

Fixing to watch the bloopers.

I can't watch bloopers or it ruins the spirt of the show for me Freddie Highmore played the sweet little boy in August Rush . And usually I don't like to see the real people if I watch a show because 98% of the time they are a disappointment, Sheldon from the Big Bang theory is quite dull in real life .


My major Bates crush is Romero .

My major Bates crush is Romero.

Uh, yeah. After seeing his audition, I'm now okay with the manliner on the eyes.

I'm ready for him to pounce on Norma .. in a good way. Don't you know, he is gentle.

George was ok but too uppity, dripping in money.

Romero doesn't wear eyeliner he even used a make-up pad remover during an interview to show that he didn't . I thought he was an Israeli but he is of Cuban ancestry.Can you imagine having those eye lashes?
