Bates Motel serves as a prequel to 1960's film 'Psycho'
It stars Freddie Highmore as a young Norman Bates and explores the events of his childhood and being brought up with his Mother, leading up to what happened in Psycho.
Leading Cast :
Vera Formiga - Norma Bates (Mother)
Freddie Highmore - Norman Bates (Son)
Max Thieriot - Dylan Massett (son)
--------------------
This is brilliant, it's full first season run in America ran through ten episodes to great reviews and viewing numbers, although if that happens over here will remain to be seen. I've been watching it online and it brilliant!!!

I've seen the first three episodes so far, need to catch-up on the rest asap, the pilot was really gripping. The leads are great, Freddie Highmore is adorable.

Getting through this now. The cast is largely spot on, i mean Highmore basically IS a younger Anthony Perkins isn't he ohmy.gif

I'm still slightly dubious about it all though but it's fun so far and i'm intrigued with how far it'll go.

I did think it was all a bit much on the first episode with so much happening but I think it's pacing itself nicely smile.gif

I'm watching it, but I missed last Thursday's episode due to CSI:NY with a 4 parter on 4 consecutive nights, I know the repeat is on tonight, but it clashes with X Factor, so I guess missing an episode is on the cards, I can quickly catch up quite easily.
