I hope they tackle Psycho a la Hannibal and Red Dragon. Devote a few episodes without sacrificing the original tone of the series.

Got to say Norma played dead good! No involuntary eye flutter when he was gluing her eye lids open.

They must have had a blast shooting that scene. The final scenes at home were as good as anything Hitchcock ever did.

I was a little disappointed that they did not do more with Emma's mother missing. I thought for sure the sheriff would find something a bone or something while planting trees for Norma. I loved the scene where the sheriff was beating the crap out of Norman in the church.

I don't think Emma's mother is a done deal yet. Just like his dog returning, Emma's mother may show up either in Norman's World or the real one.

That scene Janne was so freaking tense! I was really concerned for the guy I hated with a passion three episodes ago! The direction is terrific. My only concern is we have gotten this far and there are still 10 episodes to go. Pretty much every one of the main characters have scattered where their character arcs could just end.

Great interview for those interested:

I loved the finale, the acting by everyone was brilliant, and I look forward to the final season. I forgot how short this show is and how it just flies by.

I loved how they stayed true to the original film, having Norman pick out a "periwinkle blue" dress in which to bury his mother. But in the movie, the sheriff's wife tells Lila Crane that she helped Norman pick out the dress, which clearly didn't happen. Odd that they chose to stay only partially true to the original.

That said, it was an outstanding season finale, and sets the stage for a bonkers final season!

Well, the Producers have gone on record as saying they are not recreating the movie, but using some of the elements.

I do not think I have ever scene such riveting TV. I had a feeling they would kill Norma off this season, and next season focus on the aftermath with Ghost Norma and Marion Crane. Very much Groundbreaking.

Looks like they've found Marion! A very unexpected and big name choice! Hopefully it will draw more light to this show. (I still can't understand the lack of Emmy consideration)

Rihanna?? Really??

A Chorus Line played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013.

How exciting I was hoping they would go this way! But not sure about Rihannan. Can she even act? In such a show with great acting she might stick out like a sore thumb if she can't act

Hmmmm I will hold judgement until I see what they have in plan. It all is going to hinge on her acting ability. I really hope they don't screw up which has turned out to be a stunning series.

Still bummed by the stunt casting of Rhiannon. My favourite show is so good they should be above that. Professional actors like Freddie and Vera though would never say it probably roll their eyes at the news.

Cant wait! I hoped and predicted earlier in this thread that they bring Marion Crane to the Motel, so I am excited about that, though I can not for the life of me understand why they cast Rhianna it.She is no Janet Leigh. I hope she has upped her acting cuz this show has some of the best acting on TV and there is a chance she is going to look very very bad.

It's such a shame this show is marketed so badly. The season begins next Monday, and not ONE talk show appearance this week from Vera or Freddie.

Looks like there is a review show at 930 before the real show at 10. So set up your Tape Recorders!

This is going to be a fun ride. I doubt Rhiannon will be up to the task though.
