I shipped them since season 1. Am just not convinced Emma suits with Norman and get the right vibe for her from Dylan 😁
i love emma.

It's very difficult to watch this program when A&E places their A&E in big white letters on the screen. This program is filmed in a somewhat dark mode and on my hd tv their A&E symbol is so distracting. Also the last episode they put the credits in big white letters on the screen and continued to run them for the first 10 minutes of the program. This I found just stupid and I stopped watching the program.. They owe the people who watch their program more then this!!!!! The endless commercials are already to much and then they add insult to injury!!!
I get where many Norman and Emma fans are coming from. I was one myself. But the idea that Emma can "save" Norman from his inner psycho with her love is just misguided. No one can cure someone else's ills with their love. It is up to that person to cure themselves, be it through therapy or whatever else, but ultimately it is dependent on themselves and not what others around them do or don't do.
Norman did not psycho out with her because he did not see her as a sexual being and placed her in the friend-zone. He may have asked her out, but to use as his 'beard' because she is his submissive and ever available 'Wendy.' It isn't until he sees her assert herself and breaks up with him that he starts to creep on her and see her as a sexual creature. Just notice his hand while hugging her right after the break up. The psycho was coming out to play.
As with regards to the 'Dylemma' situation coming out of nowhere. In the promo pics for season 2, Emma is staring at Dylan not Norman. And I along with a few others have been waiting for these two to get together since Season 1 when she knocked on the Bates' front door looking for Norman and Dylan opened it.
I mean, when it's put into perspective, I understand why these two do share in their struggles with the Norma and Norman, but I don't understand why it had to be this season. I mean, Emma finally, finally got Norman (though some debate his decision to date her was based off mom jealousy), but I also believe that Emma is the one girl Norman feels fondly of without being triggered into his darkness. Despite his head easily coming off it's hinges, when Norman is with Emma, he seems to truly treasure her, so I just would have liked to get a little more out of them before throwing Dylan in the equation. Because Norman finally asks her out, and they share SO FEW scenes together, and there was even an episode where they weren't together at all – after their argument in the cabin, there was no resolution to that, I guess we were meant to assume it worked itself out by some magic.
Sigh… writer's you're doing a great job, I just wish you wouldn't have been so quick to pull the plug on the Nemma relationship some people waited for since season one. I wish you hadn't put them together and then shown so little of them together.
But, what do I know, I'm just a fan.
