Yes Mother: What We’ve Been Watching COVID style

Wow– hey guys! Sue and I made an attempt at podcasting again. We talked about how we’ve been keeping ourselves busy these days especially in the world of streaming. I have no idea what I’m doing anymore and it’s been a small miracle that I’ve gotten this podcast to this point. It’s amazing what being […]

Yes Mother: Bates Motel Commentary (No, not that one- the OTHER one)

Now I can’t stress this enough- THIS IS NOT A COMMENTARY OF THE BRILLIANT A&E SHOW BATES MOTEL! It is a commentary of the lesser known, less….uh….good pilot show called Bates Motel made in 1987. It didn’t get picked up, I know– we were all shocked and you will be too after you watch it. […]

Yes Mother: Bates Motel S5E10 FINALE “The Cord” Recap

The long awaited recap of the finale. You can’t blame us for taking so long, it’s kind of like if we don’t post this, it’s not really over. Or maybe I’ve just been busy and recovering from a bike accident. At any rate– here you go, we recap this beautiful episode of television. (And then […]

Yes Mother: Bates Motel S5E10 “The Cord” Finale Feedback

We read your feedback on the finale, reveal a song listener Mike wrote for the podcast, break a record on the time it takes us to read one piece of feedback (we blame Daniel…jk…), and do some epic Yes Mother-splaining with a sprinkle of shush. We hope we help you all shush a few of […]

Yes Mother: Bates Motel Finale Commentary

Did you wish you could have gone to the Yes Mother Bates Motel Finale Party and watched the last episode ever of Bates Motel with Em and Sue (and Cat and Kristen)? Well– you can come close! Sit back, grab a sandwich or turkey pot pie, relax, and turn the episode on (or not- you […]

Yes Mother: Bates Motel S5E9 “Visiting Hours” Recap

Now for our recap. Em and Sue look back on this episode and try not to panic about all the stuff that somehow needs to be in the finale. Trust the writers has been a pretty good, fail safe mantra so far, so that is exactly what we are going to do. We talk a […]

Yes Mother: Bates Motel S5E8 “The Body”

Here we are at the end of the series (not quite but close enough!) and things are definitely coming to a head. We are confused by the title though…THE Body doesn’t seem to be descriptive enough. Bodies is more like, but this episode or the lake didn’t seem to have enough bodies in it […]

Yes Mother: Bates Motel S5E7 “Inseparable” Recap

We recap this week and try to come up with scenarios that possibly could be where the show goes from here. We came up with a few good ones, but we know we are wrong, cause this show has made it abundantly clear that it is smarter than us. But Emily is crossing her fingers […]

Yes Mother: Bates Motel S5E7 “Inseparable” Feedback

It’s feedback time! The action at the hotel this week slowed down a little, but don’t get too comfortable, the yellow crime scene tape should be pretty easy to dodge. The B & B heard a lot of commotion in the main room and kitchen, but that didn’t wreck game night in the least. You […]

Yes Mother: Bates Motel S5E6 “Marion” Recap

Join us on this episode as we recap this game-changer. This week, Marion Crane checked in, Norman offered stationary and a sandwich, and then she took a shower. I’ll stop there and just quote my favorite tweet of Monday night, by @GeneHarl0w: “Dear Feminist Version of Psycho. I didn’t know I needed you. But thank […]

Yes Mother: Bates Motel S5E6 “Marion”

This week, Bates Motel when full Psycho! Haha– just kidding cause man I’m getting sick of reading reviews that say that, because they’ve been saying it since the end of season 2. So can we put a moratorium on saying that finally? Anyways– this was a pretty cool episode and in this podcast we read […]

Yes Mother: Bates Motel S5E5 “Dreams Die First”

Interesting episode, missing 3 of it’s major players. But can Freddie Highmore carry an episode that lacks 3 of his most dynamic costars? YOU BET HE CAN! And he can do it in a wig and lacy things (even though we sadly have to rely on our imaginations for that- but our imaginations are vast). […]

Yes Mother: Bates Motel S5E4 “Hidden”

We managed to fit it all into one episode this week (although you’d never know it given the time it took us to record yesterday). But that’s our business. This episode felt very much like we are on the precipice of mayhem, shenanigans and stabby stabby good times had by all, and we couldn’t be […]

Yes Mother: Bates Motel S5E3 “Bad Blood” Recap

Em and Sue recap this week’s episode of Bates Motel.

Whatever is happening with everyone in this episode, […]

Yes Mother: Bates Motel, S5E2 “The Convergence of the Twain”

It’s week 2 and Em and Sue are having a great time discussing this season with all it’s intricacies. There is so much to pull apart and we find ourselves interpreting many things differently, so hopefully that makes for an interesting discussion and no- Sue isn’t psychic– in the second half of this discussion we […]

Yes Mother: 78/52 and Bates Trailer Talk

Sue and Em had the opportunity to see the film 78/52 at the Sundance Film Festival this year, and we took that opportunity since it was all about the film Psycho, more specifically though– the infamous shower scene.
