Empire’ To End After Upcoming Sixth Season; Still “No Plans” For Jussie Smollett Return

The reign of Empire on Fox is coming to an end next year.

Just two weeks after the Charlie Collier-run Fox Entertainment renewed Lee Daniels and Danny Strong’s hip hop drama for a sixth season and showed controversy ladened Jussie Smollett towards the exit door, it was announced today on Fox’s Upfront call that the self described “groundbreaking cultural phenomenon” of Empire will be canceled once Season 6 s done.

“We are turning the final season into a large TV event, we are trying to go out guns a blazing,” Collier proclaimed on the call of Empire‘s 20-episode last round “You allow fans to lean in and have the ending they deserve,” the CEO added.

Questioned about the possibility that the legally challenged Smollett could return for the final season, Collier dodged and replied with language reminiscent of last month’s press release. “There’s an option to have Jussie in the series but we have no plans for that,” he said, noting that the writers’ room for Season 6 hasn’t even been opened yet.

I liked the music when Timberland was producing it.

I liked Tianna walking around in the camel toe outfit of the week.

Boo boo kitty was sexy as fuck.

The faggot stuff was limited and I would just turn away.

The gayness is way over the top

I'm glad it was the faggot character that fucked up in real life. Shows just where the battyman Shit leads
 
Lee Daniels is a confusing mothafucka

I liked Star because the three leads were cute, including the white girl and they were talented and the songs that were produced for the show were actually good.

Also Lee Daniels seemed to be bold enough to do things like call out white men as the most dangerous terrorists in America but at the same time he features a story-arch that has a grandmother get raped, later on she get's revenge on her rapist, only to get shot by two niggas in the finale.

And many people found that to be very disturbing.

I also read on another forum that Lee Daniels has issues with the Black church and older Black women and that's understandable but to show an older Black woman being raped and then shot up is just too much. I tend to be afraid of what ever else he has up his sleeve
 
"No plans" is bullshit.
It's just to build up suspense to his inevitable return.
Skeptical of his story or not, the gay community has to present him as a "win" for their cause.
