FOX’s ‘Empire’ continues to grow!

The Lee Daniels production dominated in its slot last night when its second episode aired.

How much did the Terrence Howard and Taraji P. Henson led music drama draw? Find out below…

According to TV By The Numbers, the series commanded an audience of 10.29 million, rising from the 9.9million who watched its debut a week prior.

The figure serves as a major coup for the show, which features original music produced by hitmaker Timbaland. For, its success streak comes as the annual season of show renewals and cancellations fast approaches.

Needless to say, with ratings like this, ‘Empire’ is almost guaranteed a second season pick-up. Because even if dips await in the weeks ahead (which looks unlikely), its strong start paired with solid social media presence suggests it has established its potential – and ultimately its importance to the network.

We love it, do you?!

    The show is really good, and it has something for most people as well as the characters just sucking you in and you want to know more and more about them

    Guess I’m in the minority. Cookie’s jail mentality is annoying. The whole B. Obama scene was cringeworthy. The constant use of gay slurs (Queen especially) is annoying. It makes you think blacks have zero tolerance for gays. The show is damn near aimless. Hakeem’s overacting is unbearable to watch… Jamal needs to switch roles with the older brother… I mean this show is nothing but a ghetto a*s GLEE. The music is just annoying AF!

    I still for the life of me can’t figure out this show. The whole premise sucks to me. They are trying to make us care about plotlines that I just can’t get into. Terrence Howard dyiing of ALS, who’s gonna take over the company, the gay son, the son who is bipolar, the son who is a spoiled brat, Cookie working with the feds, Are they going to finde out that Terrence killed the dude who thought the year was 1988. None of those plotlines are interesting enough to hold my intrest. The people in wardrobe need to be fired because they have Taraji dressed like a 1972 pimp. This episode was better than the first, but IDK somethings just not clicking.

    The show is way too gay. Between those 2 gay dudes and Taraji acting like a middle aged version of a Flavor of Love rat, this is nothing but a show for tumblr queens.
