Gary and Nicole discuss the season two premiere of Empire. We jump forward three months after the season finale. Lucious Lyon is still king of the jungle. Cookie is still trying to work her magic and do what she feels is best for her children. However, Jamal is turning into Lucious junior. We hope this is a temporary thing, and the old Jamal that we love and care for will return. We get to see Anika twerk, and we are introduced to a new character who goes by the name of MiMi.

We loved Empire's season one finale. There were so many highs in this episode, Jamal winning the Empire, and his sort of rap battle. We also loved the other gifts that Hakeem and Andre were rewarded with. Lucious is finally being brought to justice. Cookie and Anika went head to head. We cant wait to see where the characters go next in season two.

Gary and Nicole have made it to the end of Season one of Empire. We enjoyed this episode very much, and all the OMG and jaw dropping moments. We both agreed there were some things that the characters did, that were completely different than from how they were originally portrayed, but that's tv for you. Some of the high moments were Hakeem's diss song and Jamal getting all the love he deserves.

We only have one epsiode left and on to season two. 

Thank you for listening!

Here we are at episode ten, "Sins of The Father", which was entitled very appropriately. The oldest Lyon brother is going through a very difficult time, luckily he has a wife who has his back. Jamal steps up to be a better father, but is he really Lola's dad? Hakeem performs new music, but loses his girlfriend before the night is over.  Lucious is finally shot down by Cookie, and she has moved on to another.

It was another great episode. Be sure to let us know what you think, you can reach us at empire@theverdictsin.com

This was an excellent episode. Anika has walked away from the Lyon's, and into the enemies den. Andre has had a major breakdown, and is now in a 48 hour hold. Jamal is making great moves for the good of the company, and Cookie has offered her cookies to Malcolm.

 In the Jungle, the mighty jungle, the lion sleeps tonight....this was another powerful episode. We are just loving it. Hakeem lets go of his mommy issues. Jamal makes a big announcement, and Andres sneakiness has hit and all time low. We look forward to discussing the last four episodes before the new season begins.

Thank you for listening!

In this seventh episode of Empire, entitled "Our Dancing Days" which should have been called "The Panties Come Off", we get some hot love making from two of our favorite Lyons. An Empire artist is betrayed. One of the Lyon brothers has a major break down, and Lucious finally tells his family his secret.

We only have five more episode and two more weeks before the all new season begins.
