Bates Motel (A&E Series)

Described as a "contemporary prequel" to Hitchcock's Psycho, one of my favorite all-time films. Debuts Monday, March 18th at 10:00 pm.

One show down & give two thumbs up.

Missed the first one but I will be DVRign the rest. Psycho scared the hell out of me. I showered with the curtain half open for years. Hope it's a good series.

I really liked the Bates Motel. It was bizarre and interesting. I really liked the characters. I think it will develop into must see tv.

I'm sure they'll have a replay. I recommend checking it out.

I hope a lot of people watch it. I want it to stay on the air. Norma Bates is hot, but I wouldn't want to make her mad.

Norma is indeed a nice looking lady.

Just watched the replay a little bit ago; I was impressed. Should be fun watching the rest of it.

Do you all care that the show is a contemporary setting? If I had to list a concern with the show, that might be it.

It is also in color and not black and white, but I don't think any of these things detract from the story. I think keeping it somewhat modern will attract more viewers.

I watched the rerun last night. I think this is a show that I might get hooked on.

If I had one, that would probably be it. From watching the first show, I thought it made it more interesting; guess we will see how the rest of it goes.

It's not a huge deal with me, but if I had to name something that concerned me, the modern setting would be it. But it may actually work out for the better. Can't wait to see how it plays out.
