Bates Motel premiered last night (Mon. 18th) on A&E!

[Monsters For Sale]

Loved it.  Nice ending to the season.  Kinda expected the ending just didn't know which woman or girl it was going to be.  Really starting to like the sheriff.  Really liked the line "Not in my town."  Although I don't think I could have so easily thrown $150,000 into the water.  Very satisfying ending to season one.   

The money bothered me, too.

But, then I figured if the money was found with the body no one else would bother to come looking for the killer(s).

Pssh...  Well, you don't own a town, now do you?     I imagine that was a mere pittance to this guy.

Seriously. He's got to be pulling in major kickbacks from the whole pot-growing ring deal. I think he can forgo sex-slave money.

I feel so bad for Emma. Her little cupcake scene last week was a hoot. "This is supposed to be fun, but I'm not having any fun. When does the fun start?" But the dance this week was just horrible. I'm betting Bradley's boyfriend ends up on the wrong end of a kitchen knife, some day.

I agree, Count Z.! I hope that idiot that hit Norman- gets his just reward! And that dance....it was pretty bloated with decorations!
Not to mention the heartwarming story Norma decided to lay on Norman- right before his FIRST dance! Couldn't she have waited to share her disturbing childhood trauma with him? Or was that part of her control system......hmmmm? Maybe she didn't want himto have a good time.

Pretty sure Norma thought she was going to die that night. Remember, she had that confrontation with "Abernathy" at midnight. She was pretty sure Sheriff Romero wasn't going to do anything, so...she wanted someone to know, just in case.

[charp13]

Ahhh- I had forgotten that she had the big midnight meeting ahead of her when she divulged her trauma to Norman.

[The Creeper]

I also thought that since he knew Norma was there he might have done that for show.  And know maybe he is the leader of the sex slave ring?  I just can't wait for the new season to find out!

Sheriff said he was the third partner of somebody...  Did anyone catch what that was about? 

[Count_Zirock]

Maybe he's the third partner in the pot plantation. Would make sense, considering the big nothing that's happened with the investigation into Bradley's father's torching. I don't think Romero's involved in the sex slave ring. I may be wrong, but Romero seems like the type that has his own moral code. Some lines he'll cross, others he won't.

I'm a little surprised to hear myself saying this, but, I'm gonna miss not having a new Bates Motel episode air tonight.

Anyone know when Season Two is scheduled to begin?

Anyone know when Season Two is scheduled to begin?

Early 2014 is all I'm seeing listed anywhere!

[Monsters For Sale]

Out of curiosity, I checked tonight's TV listings to see what has replaced Bates Motel.

It is American Hoggers.

Ugh!

[Mord]

Well at least it wasn't "Honey Boo Boo"

[Monsters For Sale]

Well at least it wasn't "Honey Boo Boo"

How do you tell the difference?

[Count_Zirock]

Holy crap, no new episodes until "early 2014," according to A&E.
