An Empire Within a Family?

...

So In all, the show deserves all that comes to it in the awards department. The family in Empire really do indeed illustrate how to represent powerful, influential, musical, black family in today's society. In evaluating the show on its modern diverse society, and the American family the show is excellent, believable, valuable and accurate based on the background and demographics of each individual of the family. The show does experience conflicts within the family but it also shows the good within the show. So in all, Empire is the best social institution/representation of a music family evolving to make odds meets for their empire.

Self Assessment

Overall I learned through writing my essay about evaluating the hit tv show, no matter what goes on in life, no matter what hardship, stumbles, trials you may have just call on family. I really think this is my best essay cause I really do enjoy both of these shows even though I couldn’t think of a good way of explaining the difference of the shows because I love them both, I really think I did a good job.
