Matt Carter Empire, Empire season 3 review
We are a little late in posting this particular “Empire” review, but we’re very happy to get this one out into the universe now, a couple of days before the next new episode airs. Why is that? It’s because “What We May Be” may be a seminal episode in the history of the series. While […]
