I can see why some may not be as critically receptive of EMPIRE as other shows. It has more of an entertainment element than anything, whereas shows like HTGAWM dig a little deeper and make the viewer think a bit more. It's understandable why some many regard EMPIRE as "trash" "low class", etc.

I have to admit, watching the second episode, I just saw stereotype after stereotype. From hip hop, to the black men in prison, etc. But this is reality for many of us black men, so you cannot be too mad at the scripting.

its not that deep
the acting and writing is cheesy.....most people that drag the show state those reasons
Right. As I said, it seeks more of a pure entertainment factor than anything else. The musical performances, guest appearances, etc. Depth is clearly the least of their concerns.

I'd compare it to a pop artist vs. the deep indie artist.

Pop artist makes their music catchy, easy to remember and simple. sells more, but is seen as trash to many people. Deep indie artist gets all the critical acclaim, but almost never see as many sales.
Shut the hell up. You didn't explain shit.

Most 'niggas' aren't into the gay agenda that Lee and his WHITE gay agenda friends are pushing.

USING black people at that.
Also, Lee is one big uncle tom man, he bashes black men just because that don't support the feminization of the black man.
He got threw in a trash can, not a HUMAN SIZED oven.
He did not got through a holocaust, he needs to just be real and admit he can't get a black guy to succumb to his lifestyle so in turn he bashes them and the black community.
My qualm also comes in when he makes one of the sons gay to reflect his life and make the father character look like a bad parent for having his beliefs.


There's also Cookie, the most 'beloved' woman on the show because she's 'a black loud angry woman'.
White people just EAT THAT UP I TELL you.

I won't ever support this circus freak show of a television program.
The devil will STAY a lie.

They should cast Tionne in the upcoming The Little Mermaid live adaptation. She can play Ursula.

Then why do black people watch Love and Hip Hop (insert city) or Basket ball wives? Those are some of the worst portrayals of black people on tv.

That's what they tell you but TVbythenumbers isn't a really accurate source.
