 Re: "Empire"
OMG the season two premiere was epic. I love literally everything about Marisa Tomei's character and Chris Rock's is-he-or-isn't-he cannibal character. And there were so many great one liners.
Jamal sucked though. He needs to get his act together soon.
Can't wait for the rest of the season.

 Re: "Empire"
Terrence Howard's song last night was so unbelievably horrible that I'm shocked anyone bought that it suddenly became this "hit" record  Also, why was Cookie dressed like a "Mad Men" character at the end?

 Re: "Empire"
This season is OK but definitely a step down from season 1. Taraji P. Henson is still awesome and Cookie is the best. But the original songs are ranging from forgettable to downright awful this year.
Also let's hope that Freda character never comes back. I LOATHE her.

 Re: "Empire"
This season has been a fucking mess.
Thank god for Queen Taraji, this would be unwatchable without her.

 Re: "Empire"
I'm curious to see how this does when it returns March 30th. I feel like keeping it off the air for this long was a mistake - I forgot literally everything that happened in the first half of the season already and it was so mediocre I'm not really excited about revisiting this show.

 Re: "Empire"
I'm calling it now, this show will return down sharply from the first half of the season. The buzz is gone.

 Re: "Empire"
Catching up on this now. Did they fire the people who wrote the songs from season 1? The music this season is so, so, so bad. If I never hear this "Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom" trash again it will be too soon.

 Re: "Empire"
On the penultimate episode now. I may be done with this show after this season. The writing is just terrible, and not in a fun, campy way anymore.

 Re: "Empire"
The finale was so bad.
