Game 7 of the World Series is the reason why the show didn’t air on Wednesday, November 2, 2016.
If a World Series Game 7 is necessary the episode will be preempted. When a television show is preempted it airs the next day or after the program that took its time slot. On Wednesday, November 2 tune in to Fox at 9 PM. If there is a Game 7 the network will advise viewers when the show will air.
We’re hoping that the fifth episode of season 3, “One Before Another” will air on Wednesday, November 2, 2016! The third season just started and we’re back to that uncomfortable, familiar feeling, desperate for another shot of Empire. The third Presidential Debate will air on Wednesday, October 19 on Fox. On Wednesday, October 26 the second game of the World Series will air on Fox.
