So apperently the character who is shown to know real music and be the underdog on the rise in this show is gay.
Such a spit in the face to black people.
Oh we can make a good black character but be gotta be gay
the creator of the show is gay black man.

more like he is just channeling his own ideas about himself through the talented character. On the show the gay dude is shown to be a coward and sacrifices his personal life for stardom.
Also he was thrown in the trash.

Yet the gay dude is rising up slowly on his way to upstaging the whole cast.more like he is just channeling his own ideas about himself through the talented character. On the show the gay dude is shown to be a coward and sacrifices his personal life for stardom.

The gay son is the only one with good traits, most lie okay down on purpose thanks to the gay creator and the gay agenda and the threat he made aginst his younger brother when he got ran up on the studio showed he wasn't cowardly.
Open your eyes.

He is a coward. Twice now when he was prompted to come out the closet he ran back in. He got the muscial talent but he does not have the bussiness sense of the older brother. He also lacks the charisma of the younger brother. They all got strengths the others lack.
but if you see an agenda.
I just see a soap opera.

Of course he represents the gay creator who got there thanks to the gay agenda which shows black gay men going to the top and straight black men falling.

So the creator only got there because of the gay agenda not because his latest films have gotten tons of awards.
but that was all part of the gay agenda as well.

Primetime television has never seen a ratings growth story like Fox’s “Empire,” which CONTINUED
to defy the odds on Wednesday night by drawing a series-high audience for a sixth consecutive week.According to Nielsen estimates, “Empire” averaged a 5.1 rating/15 share in adults 18-49 and 12.9 million viewers overall in the 9 o’clock half-hour — up 6% (0.3) in the demo and gaining nearly 1 million total viewers (from 11.96 million) vs. last week. It built by a best-yet 89% in 18-49 over its “American Idol” lead-in (2.7/9 in 18-49, 10.5 million viewers overall), with the music competition about on par with last week and sweeping its hour.
Since bowing with 9.9 million viewers on Jan. 7, “Empire” has grown with each week in total viewers: 10.32 million, 11.07 million, 11.35 million, 11.47 million, 11.96 million and now roughly 12.9 million. In 18-49, it has set highs with five of its six episodes following its premiere, which did a 3.8 rating/11 share: 4.0/12, 4.4/13, 4.3/13, 4.6/14, 4.8/15 and now 5.1/15.
Compared to its premiere, last night’s “Empire” was up 34% in adults 18-49, 55% in adults 18-34 and 30% in total viewers.
The only drama to bag a higher 18-49 rating for any regular telecast in recent years has been AMC’s “The Walking Dead.” The last broadcast drama to hit a 5 demo rating was ABC’s “Grey’s Anatomy” more than four years ago.
Fox crushed the competition on Wednesday, with its two-hour 18-49 average (3.9 rating/12 share) besting the combined three-hour totals of second-place ABC (2.0/6) and third-place NBC (1.4/4).
Elsewhere, ABC’s “Modern Family” was Wednesday’s No. 2 PROGRAM
in demos (3.0/9 in 18-49, 8.8 million viewers overall) but down two or three tenths from last week (depending of whether it’s revised up to a 3.1 in the nationals as expected). The rest of the net’s comedies held up better, with “The Middle” (2.2/7 in 18-49, 7.7 million viewers overall) and “Black-ish” (2.2/6 in 18-49, 6.5 million viewers overall) up a tenth and “The Goldbergs” steady (2.2/7 in 18-49, 6.8 million viewers overall). If it holds in the nationals, this would be the top score for “Black-ish” in its four original episodes to air in 2015.“Nashville” was down a tenth at 10 (1.3/4 in 18-49, 4.7 million viewers overall).
NBC had a pretty good night as “The Mysteries of Laura” (1.1/3 in 18-49, 5.8 million viewers overall), “Law & Order: SVU” (1.6/4 in 18-49, 6.4 million viewers overall) and “Chicago PD” (1.7/5 in 18-49, 7.0 million viewers overall) all posted gains from last week. These are the best 2015 scores to date for “Laura” and “SVU,” while “Chicago PD” had its best score since its November crossover episode with “Chicago Fire” and “Law & Order: SVU.”
“SVU” seemed to benefit from the absence of “Criminal Minds” in its 9 p.m. timeslot, as CBS aired the lower-rated “The Mentalist” from 8 to 10. The Simon Baker drama’s series finale averaged a 1.3/4 in 18-49 and 10.2 million viewers overall, about what it did in the demo with its hourlong episode of last week. In total viewers, this was the best score for “The Mentalist” since its season premiere on a Sunday in late November.
Closing the night for the Eye, “Stalker” (1.3/4 in 18-49, 7.2 million viewers overall) was down a tenth from last week.
CW was up a bit with “Arrow” (1.1/4 in 18-49, 2.8 million viewers overall) and “The 100″ (0.6/2 in 18-49, 1.5 million viewers overall), though the latter has consistently been revised down to a 1.5 in the nationals.
Preliminary 18-49 averages for the night: Fox, 3.9/12; ABC, 2.0/6; NBC, 1.4/4; CBS, 1.3/4; Univision, 1.1/3; CW, 0.8/3; Telemundo, 0.6/2.
In total viewers: Fox, 11.7 million; CBS, 9.2 million; ABC, 6.5 million; NBC, 6.3 million; Univision, 2.9 million; CW, 2.2 million; Telemundo, 1.4 million.
