I binge watched all five seasons, then watched Psycho I, II, and III. Good stuff! The series is not a true prequel per se and overlaps with the movie, but does the material justice. This isn't Shakespear or anything.

The original was enjoyable, but hasn't aged terribly well. I'd seen it before but it had been a long, long time.
