Look out, television world:
The Lyons will continue to roar all the way through 2016 and beyond.
Via its panel discussion this morning at the Television Critics Association winter press tour in California, Fox announced that it has picked up Empire for a third season.
Considering it was just nominated for Best Drama at the Golden Globe Awards...
.... Considering Taraji P. Henson actually won a Golden Globe for Best Actress...
.... And considering it is the highest-rated series on broadcast television among 18-49-year olds, this was not exactly a surprise.
But it's still exciting news!
The series, unfortunately, remains on extended hiatus (although you can always watch Empire online via TV Fanatic) until Wednesday, March 30 at 9/8c.
Among other significant announcements made by Fox today:
- Scream Queens has been picked up for a second season.
- 24: Legacy will likely air some time in 2017, using the same real-time format, yet bringing in an entirely new cast to replace Kiefer Sutherland and company. (Yes, we're about to have 24 without Jack Bauer.)
- Wentworth Miller and Dominic Purcell will reprise their roles from Prison Break in a nine-episode revival of Prison Break.
- Tim Curry will narrate The Rocky Horror Picture Show remake as Criminologist Narrator.
- Country music singer Trisha Yearwood has landed the role of Mary, the mother of Jesus, in Fox's The Passion.
- Bones will likely NOT be renewed, with Fox co-chairman and CEO Dana Walden saying producers will receive plenty of time to create a "meaningful" finale if the network chooses to go in that direction.
Which of these announcements has you most excited?
