Bates Motel is an American psychological horror drama television series based on characters from the 1959 novel Psycho by Robert Bloch that aired from March 18, 2013, to April 24, 2017.[1][2][3] It was developed by Carlton Cuse, Kerry Ehrin, and Anthony Cipriano for the cable network A&E.[4]

A "contemporary prequel" to Alfred Hitchcock's 1960 film Psycho, it depicts the lives of Norman Bates (Freddie Highmore) and his mother Norma (Vera Farmiga) prior to the events portrayed in the film, albeit in a different fictional town (White Pine Bay, Oregon, as opposed to Fairvale, California) and in a modern-day setting.[5][6] However, the final season loosely adapts the plot of the novel Psycho. Max Thieriot and Olivia Cooke both starred as part of the main cast throughout the series's run. After recurring in the first season, Néstor Carbonell was added to the main cast from season two onward. Both Nicola Peltz and Kenny Johnson had main cast roles at different points throughout the series’s run.

The series begins in Arizona with the death of Norma's husband, after which Norma purchases the Seafairer motel located in a coastal Oregon town so that she and Norman can start a new life.[4][7][8] Subsequent seasons follow Norman as his mental illness becomes dangerous, and Norma as she struggles to protect her son, and those around him, from himself. The series was filmed outside Vancouver in Aldergrove, British Columbia, along with other locations within the Fraser Valley of British Columbia.

A&E chose to skip a pilot of the series, opting to go straight-to-series by ordering a 10-episode first season.[4] Bates Motel is the longest-running original scripted drama series in the channel's history.[9] The series's lead actors, Vera Farmiga and Freddie Highmore, received particular praise for their performances in the series, with the former receiving a Primetime Emmy Award nomination and winning a Saturn Award for Best Actress on Television. Bates Motel also won three People's Choice Awards for Favorite Cable TV Drama, and for Favorite Cable TV Actress (Farmiga) and Actor (Highmore).

[edit]
Main article: Bates Motel (season 1)

The first season follows Norma and Norman Bates as they buy a motel after Norman's father dies. On one of the first nights of the two owning the motel, the former owner breaks in and rapes Norma. Norman knocks the attacker out, and Norma stabs him to death. She decides it is best not to call the police and to cover up the murder. She and Norman dispose of the body. He complicates the cover-up by keeping a belt that belonged to the victim. When the town sheriff and his deputy notice that a man has gone missing, Norma and Norman must keep them from digging too far.

The third season focuses on Norman's waning deniability about what is happening to him, and the lengths he will go to, to gain control of his fragile psyche.

Meanwhile, Sheriff Romero begins to distance himself from the Bates family after he suspects Norma is lying to him about her husband's death.

Season 4

[edit]
Main article: Bates Motel (season 4)

He agrees to marry Norma because his insurance will enable her to place Norman in an expensive psychiatric hospital.

Season 5

[edit]
Main article: Bates Motel (season 5)

Development

[edit]
The cast promoting the series at the Paley Center for Media in 2013 (left to right): Thieriot, Peltz, Highmore, Farmiga, and Carbonell.

On July 5, 1987, a Psycho spin-off film written and directed by Richard Rothstein, titled Bates Motel, aired on NBC. Starring Bud Cort, Lori Petty and Moses Gunn respectively as mentally disturbed youth Alex West, teenage runaway Willie and local handyman Henry Watson running the titular motel after Norman Bates passes away, it was intended to be a pilot for a proposed TV series that was to feature supernatural elements. The series was not picked up by the network.[citation needed]

In 2012, A&E was developing a television series also titled Bates Motel that would serve as a "contemporary prequel" to the Alfred Hitchcock film Psycho.[10] The first script was written by Anthony Cipriano.[11] Carlton Cuse and Kerry Ehrin joined the project in March as executive producers and head writers.[12] Cuse has cited the drama series Twin Peaks as a key inspiration for Bates Motel: "We pretty much ripped off Twin Peaks... If you wanted to get that confession, the answer is yes. I loved that show. They only did 30 episodes. Kerry [Ehrin] and I thought we'd do the 70 that are missing".[13] A&E gave Bates Motel a straight-to-series order in July.[14] Chris Bacon was hired to score the music for the series in January 2013.[15]

Casting

[edit]

The casting for the series started in August 2012. Vera Farmiga was the first to be cast in the leading role of Norma Louise Bates.[16] Freddie Highmore was cast as Norman Bates in September.[17] The same month, Max Thieriot was cast as Norman's half-brother, Dylan Massett.[18] Shortly after, Nicola Peltz was cast as Bradley Martin, a possible love interest for Norman.[19] Olivia Cooke was the final main cast member to join the series, in the role of Emma Decody, Norman's best friend.[20] Nestor Carbonell was cast in a recurring role as Sheriff Alex Romero in the first season, but was upgraded to the main cast at the beginning of the second season.[21] Kenny Johnson, who recurred as Norma's brother Caleb Calhoun in the second season, was promoted to a series regular for the third season.[22] Rihanna later appeared in the iconic role of Marion Crane for the fifth and final season.[23]

Filming

[edit]

A replica of the original Bates Motel set from the film Psycho was built on location at approximately 1054 272 Street in Aldergrove, British Columbia, where portions of the series were filmed.[24][25] The original house and motel are located in Universal Studios, Hollywood, Los Angeles. Additional filming for the series took place in multiple areas in Metro Vancouver, including Steveston, Coquitlam, Horseshoe Bay, West Vancouver and Fort Langley. In February 2017, after filming was completed for the series, the Bates Motel exterior set in Aldergrove was demolished.[26]

The fourth season of Bates Motel was met with critical acclaim. Rotten Tomatoes reported a 100% positive rating from 17 reviews. The site's consensus reads, "Bates Motel fulfills its menacing potential in a fourth season that confidently careens toward the mother-son duo's ghastly destiny".[33] Alan Sepinwall of Uproxx considered Bates Motel to have only become a good series midway through season four due to obtaining a better narrative purpose and "tragic grandeur" with the season's latter episodes.[34]

The fifth and final season of Bates Motel received a score of 81 out of 100 on Metacritic.[35] Rotten Tomatoes reported a 100% rating from 21 reviews. The site's consensus reads, "Bates Motel's final season brings the franchise full circle, with a satisfyingly creepy conclusion to the trials and tribulations of Norman Bates".[36]
