In Fox’s new drama EMPIRE, created by Danny Strong and Lee Daniels, we are in the world of hip-hop music. The new series introduces us to music mogul Lucious Lyon, played by Terrence Howard. Lucious is suffering from a serious illness and struggles to retain power while also trying to plan his legacy. Son Jamal, played by Jussie Smollett, is perhaps the most talented and qualified choice, but Jamal is gay, and Lucious cannot bear that. Challenging Lucious on virtually everything is his ex-wife Cookie, played by Taraji P. Henson. Henson and Howard previously worked together in 2005’s HUSTLE & […]Read On »

Syfy’s miniseries ASCENSION, which runs in three two-hour blocks this week, is set in space – in the present. In creator Adrian Cruz’s premise, President Kennedy secretly authorized a project to send a number of people on what will be a hundred-year mission to reach the nearest inhabitable planet, which will be the salvation of the human race if Earth is destroyed by the nuclear threat that then seemed imminent. It’s now fifty years into the journey. The population aboard the Ascension has reached six hundred, though no one aboard has any contact with Earth or indeed even knows if […]Read On »

The Fall Finale is the first two-parter of the season leaving viewers dangling at the edge as to what will […]Read On »

And that’s a good thing considering winter finale’s need to have an impact. It’s a better thing for show such as AOS that at times seems to drag its feet on a lot of its storylines or misses the boat entirely. The first half […]Read On »

Doyle Director: Milan Cheylov Network: Airs on ABC, Tuesdays @ 9 p.m. Original Telecast: Nov. 18, 2014 There was a lot of moving parts on this week’s MARVEL’S AGENTS OF SHIELD. After last week’s really poor episode, I wasn’t sure if we were ready to take another nose dive on this show or if it was a one-time thing. Luckily, “The Things We Bury” really did a great job of righting the ship in the […]Read On »
