Nice concept, in which Norman Bates' backstory is set in the present. It is a feast of recognition through the iconic locations. Freddie Highmore plays an increasingly better Norman as the series progresses, but it is Vera Farmiga who steals the show.
Unfortunately, the series sometimes feels very much like an MTV teen series and the subplots are often anything but interesting.

I have now watched another 5 episodes, but subtle is not in the makers' dictionary... there really could have been so much more if this had been better structured. Now I'm annoyed by the almost constant banter between Norma and Norman, while it could have been very nice if it had been done in better doses. But I'll persevere a little longer, because it's really not all bad. Half of it will certainly be lost.
