Dylan: “You shouldn’t be living here alone.”
Norman: “Living anywhere else is not an option.”

Creepy!! A&E has just released the official season 5 trailer for Bates Motel, after a couple of teasers last month. The story of a young Norman Bates (Freddie Highmore), and his dysfunctional relationship with his mother and reality is in its last season. As sad as that is, we have one more juicy season ahead of us, and I plan to enjoy every second.

Check out the trailer below.

You have a little over a month to binge 4 seasons…40 episodes before Bates Motel returns for its 5th and final season. A&E announced the premiere date yesterday with a little gift: a sneak peek at what our little psycho will be up to.

Check out the press release and sneak peek below (spoilers below if you have not binged yet!).

Bates Motel haunted San Diego Comic-Con tonight as EPs Carlton Cuse and Kerry Ehrin, along with Norman and Norma Bates, Dylan Massett, and Sheriff Romero (Vera Farmiga, Freddie Highmore, Max Thieriot, and Nestor Carbonell) held a panel to talk about all things Season 5 (the end…) and more.

Check out the tweets and announcement video below.

This weekend kicked off another fan convention, Walker Stalker Con, in Edison, NJ. As with last week’s Heroes and Villains Fan Fest, this had a main show focus (The Walking Dead – last week was Arrow, with a few others sprinkled in). At this one, my main sprinkle was Max Thieriot, who plays Dylan Massett on Bates Motel.

Spoilers (!) if you are not caught up on Bates Motel, which at this point means go immediately and watch all 4 seasons without eating, drinking, or sleeping, and then return to read this.

Last week on Bates Motel, Rebecca tried to get Romero (Nestor Carbonell) to confess while wearing a wire, but he caught on. Dylan and Emma (Max Thieriot and Olivia Cooke) were leaving, and Dylan tried one more time to get Norma (Vera Farmiga) to listen about Norman’s instability, at Romero’s urging. She refused to listen, and broke up with Alex for trying to get between her and her son. Norman (Freddie Highmore) found Emma’s mom’s suitcase and realized that they could not live in this world any longer. He lit the furnace and closed all the vents except for the room in which they were sleeping. Romero finds them and starts CPR on Norma, shredded by grief.

Beware! Spoilers from tonight’s Bates Motel are below.
