The spring premiere of Empire is upon us.

Lyon patriarch Lucious (Terrence Howard) has lost control of his company. Not being one to go down without a fight, he's going to do anything to get it back. Feeling the sting of Hakeem (Bryshere "Yazz" Gray) siding with his lady love Camilla (Naomi Campbell), family matriarch Cookie (Taraji P. Henson) will do things her way to get the empire back. How will Andre (Trai Byers) and the rest of the family handle the cliff-hanger tragedy that befell his wife Rhonda (Kaitlin Doubleday)? We shall see.

It was announced in January that FOX renewed Empire for its third season.

Empire airs Wednesdays on FOX, 9:00 PM ET.

Television: FOX Announces Renewals

Last week, FOX announced that it ordered a third season of their drama Gotham.

GOTHAM is an origin story of the great DC Comics Super-Villains and vigilantes, revealing an entirely new chapter that has never been told. From executive producer/writer Bruno Heller (“The Mentalist,” “Rome”), GOTHAM follows one cop’s rise through a dangerously corrupt city teetering between good and evil, and chronicles the birth of one of the most popular super heroes of our time. 

Gotham airs Mondays, 8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT

This week, FOX announced that it is renewing comedies The Last Man On Earth for its third season and Brooklyn Nine-Nine for its fourth season.
