The end is nigh for Empire, but sadly a couple episodes short of the original order for Season 6.
Now, after “Over Everything,” I’m wondering if the premature ending means a happy ending for the Lyons in the April 21 series finale.
The producers were expected to incorporate in the finale some of the footage that had been filmed for Episode 19 to close the series as best as possible.
The production shut down when Empire had only filmed 18 of its planned 20 episodes for its sixth and final season, and the Fox series will end rather than return at a later date to finish those last two episodes.
