THR: Where will season two pick up? Will there be a time jump?
Cuse: I don't want to say exactly how we're going to do that. Certainly the events at end of this season are very much in play when season two opens. One of the big questions looming is: What is Norman's awareness of his own self, how much does Norma know? How much does she know about what Norman is really all about? For us, the thing that's really engaging is this wonderful relationship between two people, which is so complicated and complex and has so many components and dimensions to it. We love writing for Norma, Norman and Dylan and we're exited about the ways in which we're going to spin them on down stream next season.
THR: You're also adding to the writers' room for season two.
Cuse: In the first season, Kerry and I did a huge amount of the writing ourselves and we have a full writers room this year, which wasn't something we had in year one. We have a real all-star team in Liz Tigelaar (Nashville, Life Unexpected) and Alexandra Cunningham (Prime Suspect, Desperate Housewives) and Nikki Toscano (Revenge, Detroit 1-8-7). Adding those three writers is going to be a huge benefit for season two. Our goal in season two is to increase the audience's understanding of the world in which our characters live. Most importantly, a deeper understanding of who the characters themselves are. And we plan on having plenty of thrills and chills along the way.
THR: There's all sorts of evidence pointing to Norman and his borderline inappropriate relationship with Miss Watson. Will next season be a search for her killer?
Cuse: Coming to terms with Miss Watson's death is a component of next season. It's not the main narrative focus of next season but it is one of the stories we're telling. It's important for the audience to get some resolution about that story and we've got a good way to do that. But there's a lot of other stuff going on in White Pine Bay that we're going to need to pay attention to as well.
