Empire Season 2 RECAP: Ep 5 Be True / Ep 6 A High Hope for a Low Heaven / Ep 7 True Love Never / Ep 8 My Bad Parts / Ep 9 Sinned Against / Ep 10 Et tu, Brute
Empire Season 2, Episode 7, 8, 9 &10 The busy life of a film, food and events blogger means you can’t always be home to watch your favorite shows. So I missed doing an individual post on each of the last 4 episodes of EMPIRE, but you can be damn sure I watched them all on Demand. I think what plays out best on the show is Cookie’s relationship with her sons. She really knows how to talk to, handle and reach each one on their own terms; and in turn they look to her for approval. She’s come a long way from those first few months out of prison…

Empire Season 2 RECAP: Without a Country
Empire Season 2, Episode 2: Without A Country directed by Dee Rees gets going with Cookie, Andre and Hakeem starting their own label. It takes them a while to come up with a name, but by the end of the episode it’s crowned #LyonDynasty, a perfect name to rival #Empire; not to mention, Lee Daniels and Danny Strong’s mega hit is often referred to as The Black, Dynasty. On the contrary, nobody is down with the name Hakeem comes up with for the all girl group he’s looking to produce. What was Hakeem thinking? #Empire #FOX13 #RainbowSensation @YazzTheGreatest pic.twitter.com/cJ4noSHCKH — FOX13 Memphis (@FOX13Memphis) October 1, 2015 Meanwhile Lucious is still…

Empire Season 2 RECAP: Back with a Vengeance
If you were worried #EMPIRE might lose its appeal over the hiatus, worry no more, it’s BAAACK! Season 2, Episode 1: The Devils Are Here Directed by Lee Daniels, picks up 3 months later and Lucious Lyon is still behind bars, yet still calling the shots. Jamal has become his loyal cub. And has not only bulked up his body, but he’s got a swelled head, giving everyone, even Becky, attitude as the new head of Empire. #EmpireSeason2 @JussieSmollett looks like he’s been lifting, kinda bulked up, looks good! #Empire — Tinsel & Tine (@tinseltine) September 24, 2015 A “Free Lucious Lyon” concert is being put on in the opening…

Empire Talk Week 10: Sins of the Father (Fox TV)
by Le Anne Lindsay, Editor Quick Recap/Highlights and Around the Web with Empire Can’t wait for next week’s 2hr finale airing March 18, 2014. No matter what movie screening is taking place, I’ll be home watching Empire. The March 4th episode notched a staggering 5.8 rating (14.3 million total viewers), making it this season’s top-rated drama on broadcast television! #Empire Why didn’t Jamal get a paternity test before gett’n all attached to that little girl? pic.twitter.com/5uZIPlTHxy — Tinsel & Tine (@tinseltine) March 12, 2015 I was surprised they wrapped up the storyline with Jamal and his little girl Lola so fast, with the ultimate shocker being Lucious is actually Lola’s…

Empire Talk Week 9: Unto the Breach (Fox TV)
Quick Recap/Highlights and Around the Web with Empire Note:embedded tweets will not be entirely visible to those receiving Tinsel & Tine via RSS Feed. Only 3 more episodes left of Empire Season 1. I think Twitter is going to miss it most! I couldn’t fit in a post recapping last week’s “The Lyon’s Roar”; but next week is called “Sins of the Father”, boy is that fitting; after that it looks like a two hour season finale, because “Die But Once” and “Who I Am” are both scheduled to air on March 18th. “@KEEPemTLKIN: Porsha and her girls rolled up on Boo Boo Kitty like.. #EmpireFOX pic.twitter.com/aAXp8RYKCv” 😂😂😭😭😂😭😭😂 — S…
