Empire (Fox – September 27)

Season 3 left off on a tragic note, with Empire Entertainment founder and antihero Lucious caught in a casino explosion, perpetrated by members of his own family.  Left without his memory and unsure who can be trusted, Lucious must rely on his caretaker (Demi Moore) to nurse him back to health and restore order to the Lyon family.  Expect drama, as Cookie struggles to keep family secrets private and adjust to a sudden and frustrating turn of events.   Plus, guest appearances from Vivica A.
