CGiii Comment

Just weird...is it a prequel? Because, if it is...should it not be set in the 1950s?!?!?!?!

To hell with the expense of a period setting - we'll update, Norman Bates in 2013...weird.

Anyway, by the end of series 1, there is absolutely nothing poofy about Norman - he is a little strange in a geeky way...but, he hasn't slipped into a dress yet...we're waiting!!!

Unfortunately, we wait no more...we ran out of patience...for the psychotic thing to happen.
