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.

Empire Talk Week 4: False Imposition (FoxTV)
Here we are 4th week of Empire and I thought this was going to be the first week I couldn’t watch at 9pm, cause I had a screening I couldn’t miss, but then lucky for me they changed the screening time from 7:30pm to 6pm, so I was home with 15 minutes to spare – just enough time to make myself a cup of hot cocoa with brandy and turn on Cookie and them! 7 Highlights (Recap) from Episode 4 of EMPIRE “False Imposition” Directed by Rosemary Rodriguez 1.

Empire Talk Week 2: The Outspoken King (Fox TV)
By Le Anne Lindsay, Editor So twitter was really hot during Empire last night. Looks like the show is catching on. It’s an all out crazy, fun, campy, black soap opera.

EMPIRE Talk Week 1 (FOX TV) Lee Daniels, Taraji P. Henson, Terrence Howard
There’s no better feeling than to find out people are watching what you’re doing, I’m not talking about Fox’s new drama Empire yet, created by Lee Daniels and Danny Strong, I’m talking about me, and Tinsel & Tine. A PR Rep for the show and FOX TV contacted me to ask if I wanted to be a Blog Ambassador for #EMPIRE. And it didn’t just come with an email, it came with a phone call from LA! I was told they’d been following my movie tweets and posts and felt T&T would be a good fit. Auspicious beginning to 2015! So now I’ll be watching the show EVERY WEDNESDAY at…
