The CW is planning to make lemonade out of its pandemic shutdown lemons, ending Supernatural’s final season a little early so it can air the series finale—which has been delayed by the coronavirus—along with a handful of the preceding episodes (effectively giving it another final season without actually increasing its number of episodes). Unfortunately, Fox’s Empire won’t be so lucky, with creators and executive producers Lee Daniels and Danny Strong confirming that next week’s episode, the 18th of the season, will be the end of the show. This is Empire’s final season, and it was supposed to to 20 episodes, so this means it will not be getting a proper series finale. Instead, some portions of the 19th episode that had been filmed before production was shut down by the virus will be incorporated in to the 18th episode, but any resolutions to ongoing arcs or answers to ongoing mysteries that were supposed to come in episode 20 will now just… not happen.
