There's a new tv show coming on the Fox network on January 7th called Empire with Terrence Howard and Taraji Henson. I wanna know what time does this show come on? I didn't see what time it comes on on imdb.com. I wanna see this show and I like Terrence and Taraji. Terrence and Taraji have done 2 movies called Hustle and Flow and Four Brothers. Terrence is from my hometown Cleveland, Ohio.

I saw on Youtube that it comes on at 9pm which sucks for me because I don't get off work until 10. I'm gonna have to set my vcr to record it.

I think Fox.com will let you watch previous episodes either a day after or a week after it is aired. I don't watch many shows on Fox but those that I want to see; I go to: http://www.fox.com/.
The quality of the play back is excellent and it usually has the past 5 episodes of the show.

I came in with a strong bias against "Empire" but I kind of like it! Music was pretty good and acting was decent and the script was good too. It was complete surprise! Now I kind of looking forward to the next episode. I think will be a hit show! It kind of a hip-gangster-music drama series!

I like your picture of Charlie Sheen with 2 women LOL. I saw Empire and I liked it. It was very good. Terrence and Taraji are good actors and Taraji was looking good. I like her hair. LOL@Taraji beating her son with a broom hahahahahahahahahahahaha. LOL@Terrence and Taraji has a gay son who has a Hispanic boyfriend hahahahahahahahahahaha. I like Terrence's son white woman and I like Terrence's lightskin black woman. I see Malik Yoba is on there and he played on New York Undercover tv show. Cuba Gooding Jr is gonna be on next week's episode and I like Cuba. Cuba and Terrence did a movie called Red Tails but I didn't see it. I hope this show lasts about 3-4 years but I doubt it because I wouldn't be surprised if it got cancelled after a year or two. This show is too hardcore for a regular network like Fox because it has cursing and violence and it needs to be on a cable network so it can last longer.

"Empire" is Fox's Highest-Rated New Show in Years
by James Hibberd
Jan 8, 2015
After struggling in the ratings this fall, Fox just received some very welcome news: Wednesday night’s hip-hop drama "Empire" has opened strong.
Blessed with an "American Idol" lead-in — yet also improving upon it — "Empire" premiered to 9.8 million viewers and a 3.7 rating among adults 18-49. That’s Fox’s highest-rated series debut in three years (since 2012’s Touch).
"Empire" ranks as the top-rated show in the demo, beating ABC’s "Modern Family" head-to-head, and grew from its "Idol" lead-in by 19 percent.
"Empire" outperformed Fox’s heavily hyped "Gotham" premiere this fall, and managed to retain its rating throughout its hour — another good sign.
* UPDATE:
Fox fast-ordered some updated, more accurate numbers from Nielsen and both "Empire" and "Idol" went up a tenth of a point.
What this means: "Empire" now ties ABC’s "How to Get Away with Murder" as the highest-rated new show premiere this season.

LOL@Terrence Howard's hair hahahahahahahahahaha. I hope Empire stays on for at least 2-3 years because I think it's gonna be a good show but I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't stay on long. That's good that the ratings were good for the first episode.

HarryWild, thanks for posting that Fox network website because I just watched the 2nd episode of Empire because I set my vcr last night to record it and it didn't work because I did something wrong. The 2nd episode was good. I just wish Terrence would fire the fat black woman Gabourey who's his secretary because she's nasty to look at hahahahahahahahahahahaha. He needs to hire a cute woman. I like his lightskin black woman. She's hot and I've never seen her. She was half naked at the beginning of the 2nd episode. She has a nice body. Taraji Henson is ghetto on here LOL. She says the word b*tch a lot LOL. What's up with her ghetto black woman assistant? She could've hired somebody that's educated and got some class.

You are welcome! The Fox Over The Air website is called Fox Now!
The link is: http://www.fox.com/fox-now
I now for some reason am hooked to Backstrom! LOL! It kind of silly show about a nerdy, problem, foulmouth outsider type detective that happens to be a lieutenant and is in charge of a special unit!

The genius of the Fox drama is that it reinvents the Big Spectacle serials of the '80s without looking like some cheap clone from another era, says Josef Adalian. "While much has (rightly) been written about the role of race in Empire's rise," he says, "not nearly enough attention has been paid to another key factor: It's a fully realized, brilliantly executed soap opera — arguably the best to hit prime time since 'Desperate Housewives' and the most over-the-top since the days of Dallas and 'Dynasty.' Scripted soaps targeted at broad swaths of viewers were once prime-time staples, but they've been in short supply of late."
