Sucks that there's only two more episodes this season and that we probably have to wait until around March of next year for the third season. I'm really enjoying the series a lot though and can't wait to see how the last two episodes this season play out!!

Well it looks like Emma is leaving. That would be a shame.

I also thought for certain that Dylan was a gonner.

It is ending too soon.

I did not know Olivia Cooke who plays Emma is British

There is a Bates Motel After Hours special too next week after the finale.

That was my favorite episode this season, and quite possibly my favorite episode of the series.

Poor Emma - even Sheriff Romero brushed her off.

I wonder who Norman is going
Spoiler:
to shoot
next week?

The past couple of episodes have been pretty good and I can't wait for the finale. I think Dylan will eventually killed off the show.

I thought the trailer for this episode looked awful, but that shows what I know. It was very good. I never thought they could use the drug story to advance the story that I really care about (Norma and Norman), but alas they really did.

Have they said who's going to be on it this time? Hopefully they've realized their mistakes from the last one and actually make it enjoyable.

All they needed to make it enjoyable last time was a host who ACTUALLY KNEW SOMETHING ABOUT THE SHOW.

That, and to not try to make it so social media based.

I assume Emma gets killed in the crossfire or something between the gangs. The character hasn't had much of a central storyline this season and she's had more screen time with Norma than Norman. It's a perfect way to write her off the show.

I'm not quite as optimistic about this season as some around here, it has been saved by Vera Farmiga's incredible performance as Norma.

I'm really bored with all of the drug turf war shit. I hope it ends with the next episode.

It's easily the least interesting thing on the show and seems to eat up the most screen time.

You're right, I missed it.

I wasn't teasing, it just totally looked like a post that Kinison would have made, if he were alive and posting on DVDTalk.

Maybe Olivia Cooke (Emma) will die since she was in some horror movie that came out recently and might do more movies but I assume she is a central character and must have a bigger role later as Normans true love interest.

I read an interview online where Olivia says they start shooting Season 3 in October...whether she's just being coy or not, who knows? I hope she stays on the show.
