Have you always thought to yourself "So.....what now?" after you binged-watch a TV series and it's all done?
I, myself, as well, and it's like I wanted to see the finale of the series quickly, but when it's already finished, I felt like a bit sad because it's done!
Is it just me who feels this way? It's kind of hard to move on sometimes. Haha!
Well, I have binged-watch seasons 1 through 4 last year so I could catch up with the latest episode.
It was one of my favorite TV series that I've already seen so far. The performances on this show were absolutely awesome. I loved to dig in to characters and these characters were so full. Every last one of these actors was "bringing it", and I'm so impressed with everything about this. The original actor from the classic film Psycho, Anthony Perkins, must be proud of them as to how they portrayed their role so well. The writing drags you in kicking and screaming. You wouldn't wanna miss any single of its episode like that of Breaking Bad which I binged-watch the whole seasons in just a week! But I'm gonna focus on Bates Motel for now. :)
Bates Motel, a contemporary prequel series of classic "Psycho" film, is about a "mother-and-son unique bond-relationship." You know, the natural love of a mother towards her child and vice versa, but it turns out more creepy and awkward at times. Norma would always think and care for her son whatever it takes, even if it involves her personal life. The part where she loved a sherriff named Alex Romero, played by Nestor Carbonell (Mr. Guyliner, himself) who performed Richard Alpert on “Lost”, was one of the heartbreaking moments for me. I loved them as a couple and the genuine love of this sherriff towards Norma Bates. However, her son would do everything as cleverly as he could just for their "mother-and-son relationship" not be ruined. Their "bonding" will soon forged the son to be violent and will have psychological issues, which later on could lead their life into madness.
In my opinion, this TV series implies that what ever a child has witnessed or experienced in the past, it will surely have an effect later on in his life. It is highly important that for us, as parents, we need to make sure that our kids have a good environment at home. It will start from nurturing them with a right kind of love that will feed their "growing" years into a good person they becoming. I know that there will come a point that we aren't in control of the circumstances in our life. However, we need to allow ourselves to heal from our "dark" past, to move on, and to start a new life. We have to make ways on how to be a better person not only for ourselves but also for our children. Seek professional help if needed, join a support group,and find ways to express yourself in order for you to breathe out the burden from within. Healing is essential.
Each day is our chance to be better than we were yesterday.
That's all for now folks.
