Bates Motel on A&E's nearest ten neighbors split across actors, TV personalities, and fellow TV shows — with no single dominant pull, but a clear paranormal thread running through the set. Similarity here measures how closely two entities' audiences resemble each other in composition; a score near 0.90 indicates very tight overlap.
Supernatural leads at 0.90, followed immediately by Zak Bagans at 0.90 and Aaron Goodwin at 0.89 — both TV Personalities associated with Ghost Adventures, which itself appears at 0.87. The Dead Files rounds out the paranormal cluster at 0.88. That's five of the top ten neighbors connected to supernatural or horror-adjacent television, even though Bates Motel is a psychological thriller rather than a paranormal property. The remaining five neighbors are more varied: actors Mark Sheppard (0.89) and Channing Tatum (0.87), rock music outlet Loudwire (0.87), musician Ozzy Osbourne (0.87), and actor Rob Dyrdek (0.87). Three of the ten neighbors share Bates Motel's own TV Shows subcategory; the other seven are actors, TV personalities, a website, and a musician — a cross-kind spread that defines the flat shape.
The overall picture is an audience that sits at the intersection of dark-themed television and rock-inflected celebrity culture, with no single neighbor pulling far ahead of the rest.
