Anybody else enjoying "Bates Motel" ?

I watch very little TV anymore, but the one show I look forward to is "Bates Motel". IMO the acting is top notch all around. It's very creepy, suggestive, approaches taboo, and keeps you guessing. I don't think there's any show like it.

It just keeps getting better and better. The actress who plays Norma is fascinating to watch! As is Norman!

...that he killed his mother, so he keeps her alive in his mind. Vera Farmiga seems to be having fun with the dark humor. "You're mental and I'm dead." I'm not sure of the time frame. My guess is it's been a year since Norma died, because Dylan and Emma suddenly have a baby. I thought it was a nice touch to name the hardware store owner's husband, Sam Loomis, just like the original movie.
