Were you happy with the finale?
I think it was a beautifully written end to the show. I think Kerry Ehrin & Carlton Cuse were so smart to refer back to the pilot and bring things full circle. It felt very satisfying and a little heartbreaking.
The promise of season 5 of Bates Motel, and the utter thrill of last week’s episode, came with the all-important knowledge that the series would finally be catching up with its source material.
Could you have done this episode without having a shower scene with an actual murder?
Cuse: Had we not done a shower scene people would have been really pissed.
