A&E has announced the premiere date for its murderous drama "Bates Motel".

Season 3 will launch Monday, March 9th at 9/8c.





Expect to see the ongoing evolution of the Bates family as Norman (Freddie Highmore) continues to struggle with what's happening to him, and Norma (Vera Farmiga) becomes reluctantly more aware of his mental fragility in the wake of the dramatic events of Season 2.

She'll also grow closer to Sheriff Romero (Nestor Carbonell) and eventually find herself turning to Norman's half-brother Dylan (Max Thieriot), relying on him in ways she never expected. Naturally, this triggers jealousy in Norman and a new kind of love triangle between Norma and her two sons erupts.

Estranged brother and uncle Caleb (Kenny Johnson) also returns to haunt the family, which challenges them even further.



New cast additions for Season 3 include Kevin Rahm (Mad Men), Tracy Spiradakos (Revolution), and Ryan Hurst (Sons of Anarchy), whose characters will bring pressure from the outside world when they arrive in White Pine Bay.

Is it already up to season 3? Wow time doesn't fly when a cable drama goes on hiatus for almost half a year without even showing reruns of older episodes for new viewers to catch up with.

This show needs to have more than 10 episodes a year. 15-16 would be great. I love this show. Really creepy.
