Bates Motel - Season 2 - Carlton Cuse Interview

30 Jan 2014

The first season of Bates Motel is coming to Netflix on Saturday, so you now have some weekend plans (unless there’s a big football game or something). So we jumped on the phone with creator Carlton Cuse to ask a few quick questions about the upcoming second season of the cult hit starring Vera Farmiga and Freddie Highmore as the oddest and scariest mother-son couple on TV. Bates Motel gets underway on A&E on March 3 (trailer below).

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Body count: Higher or lower than season 1?
CARLTON CUSE:
Um… you know, the body count is not extraordinarily high. But there’s definitely some mayhem that goes on in the town of White Pine Bay. I think one of the things that really distinguishes our show there’s a lot of humor which is not true of a lot of shows that deal with serial killers. It’s more of a family thriller than a horror show. Season 2 is very character-originated. There’s lot of stories about Norman’s love life and Norma’s love life and we learn a lot more about the world of White Pine Bay.

You say Norman and Norma’s love life as if they are two entirely different things. What are the odds the incest that we keep being teased with is going to be consummated?
Cuse:
Odds are straight-up not high. There’s creepy and then there’s too creepy. While they have a close relationship that complicates everything, I think actually having them consummate the relationship will have them fall into category of too creepy — at least at this point.
