Bates Motel

The second season begins March 3, which makes me very happy since I just finished watching the first season. Vera Farmiga gives a dead-on portrayal of someone with borderline personality disorder and is alternately horrifying and hysterically funny. Freddie Highmore channels Anthony Perkins while giving Norman his own spin. Plus inscrutably deadpan Nestor Carbonell. And it's all so very, very weird. I said on FB "it started out as a combo of pre-Psycho and Twin Peaks. And then it got weird."
Anybody else watching?

Absolutely watching. It's utterly compelling television.

I watched half of season one and then got sidetracked and was not too addle brained to DVR. What are the chances of being totally lost if I start in on season 2?
