The buzzing Exit sign at the end…

I know you are right. I'm just having a hard time interpreting it that way given the fact that Anthony Perkins looked to be in his mid 30's in the movie. Freddie Highmore doesn't look 21.

What a great series. We won't see another series like this in a long time I'm afraid. With that said, the one thing that bothers me with the ending. This was always billed as a prequel to Psycho. Life before the adult Norman Bates. Technically he's dead before Psycho ever takes place. Guess I was hoping for…

Wonder what's become of Chick's manuscript?

I'm still holding onto if this is a prequel before Psycho then Norman lives on another day.
