Having the guy that played Richard on LOST play the sheriff doesn't really help with the displaced in time vibe they've got.

I'm not really digging the whole "Mom" instead of "Mother" thing.

I mean, I know it's set in the modern day but come on. It's Norman Bates.

No Sheriff in the world asks this many questions for no reason.

The show is about how Norman Bates became Norman Bates. If you know anything about the character, his mother played an incredibly big part in his transformation into a serial killer.

I know. The psychiatrist spelled it out pretty well at the end of Psycho. I was just saying calling her "mom" doesn't sound the same.

A boy's best friend is his mom.

Decent first episode. I saw enough to keep me watching. Hopefully we see a lot more of Norma's vicious side

Same. Highmore and Farmiga look pretty solid for these roles. Interested to see where this goes.

pretty good first episode. The only complaint I have is Freddie Highmore's godawful American accent.

I liked it enough to keep watching. I only remember like one or two characters that didn't give off some really creepy vibe. I think that's what they're going for though.
