What’s the reference game in Bates Motel, a show which continues to elude me, like? Having not watched since the first season, I’m admittedly entirely unsure of its current timeline, and thus entirely unsure if this new promo for Season Three is a stylized, cheeky tease (there is a dude named Romero in the series, after all) or a specific look ahead.
I’m guessing the former. Explicitly stating this isn’t official show footage, and accompanying the clip with a note urging viewers to catch on up, it seems Bates Motel and A&E are having a bit of fun referencing one of Norman’s secret moves: the peep hole. Actually, he could look through the peep hole all the time on the show and you guys are reading this, eyes rolling into oblivion. Basically, I know nothing about Bates Motel. Tell me if I should catch up.
