Locked up this summer - cough, cough - with nothing to do? Good news! Fans of Fox's massive hit Empire can go back and relive all the catfights, mental breakdowns, and hookups from Season 1 on Hulu Plus, Entertainment Weekly reports. And if you haven't watched the hottest show out there yet, we won't tell if you quietly catch up.

A day after the freshman breakout's Season 1 finale, the streaming service announced that it has snagged the exclusive streaming rights to the first season and future seasons of Empire. In addition to the current 12 episodes now on the site, future episodes will be available the day after they air on Fox. The first season is also available to watch on the FOX NOW app.

"Empire is truly a television phenomenon," Craig Erwich, Head of Content at Hulu, said in a statement. "Empire's story lines and music continue to dominate the popular culture conversation each week. Since its premiere, the series has remained one of the top shows on Hulu and we are ecstatic to be the exclusive streaming home to the biggest show of the year."

It is unknown when Empire will return for Season 2, and how many episodes it will be back for, but it's safe to say the nearly 17 million viewers that tuned into Wednesday's finale won't waste time bookmarking Hulu.
