What?? You sure we're watching the same show. Hakeem is more supportive of Jamal because it was out in the opening that Jamal is gay. Jamal seem more supportive of Andre situation because in this episode Jamal remember things that Hakeem was to little to understand. they even said that. Maybe You don't like Hakeem because you see his character as coonery. I don't know.

You are right, perhaps the problem is that Hakem is too young to be genuinely supportive. He has no frame of reference and is ignorant. I think my problem with him stems from the fact that he is a justification for all of Luscious' foolery. He's clearly the favored son, and I feel Hakeem justifies so many of his actions through Luscious molding and enabling of his youngest ridiculousness and idiocy on so many occasions, and it's bothersome. Hakeem doesn't have any of the issues, harships or problems that Andre and Jamal have to deal with on a pretty much daily basis, and yet he still ends up acting like the most entitled, pompous, fool of them all. He has low empathy, and doesn't seem to grasp or understand hardships and problems, which is what I saw in the elevator scene. Jamal was the one who really understood and comforted Andre and brought them together, while Hakeem didn't even seem to care what was happening till the end.

So now we're just posting spoilers point blank to ruin other people's enjoyment of the show? How rude....

i do wonder if they're gonna resolve the murder from earlier in the season and/or Cookie's hit by the end of this amazing first season. Seems like a lot to ask. I think they should draw it out into 2nd but given how fast paced the shows have been I won't be surprised if these issues are dealt with quickly.

LOL She's my spirit animal

Which Character From “Empire” Are You?
  1. You got: Cookie
    Bad bitch contest, you’re in the first place. You don’t have time for people’s games. You’re a master of shade, which usually leaves your opponents bewildered, but if they try to come for you — watch out, baby.

    • I loved SOAP OPERA NOW because they  did detailed analysis of the ratings.
    • I love MKA and feel like they never used her to her full potential with India. The character seemed to exist merely to fight with Alex and blackmail men into marrying/sleeping with her. As if! Then adopting an orphan right out of Little Orphan Annie...somebody BTS didn't like her, I think.
    • I mean...Sarah Michelle Gellar did go on to be a household name and food guru. I can see Amber doing the same with the same talent.  Amen.
    • It really is ridiculous how happy episodes from 40 years ago make me. God, MKA is so young!
    • Holy sh.it. THAT was a damn soap opera. I’m at a loss for words for how good that was.
    • A private elevator penthouse with a spiral staircase to the primary suite.  Sign me up! The only deficit was that various riff-raffs seemed to have easy access to the elevator.

    • Same here.  Anyone who voluntarily left Margo's penthouse set (except to go overseas or to Heaven) was immediately on my blacklist.  lol.

    • The penthouse was my favorite set... and it changed hands from Margo to Draper/April to Miles/Nicole then to just Miles... before he opted to give that beautiful place for that drab house with the even more drab Beth.  That was a jump the shark moment for me LOL
