There is no doubt that the fifth season will please viewers with new storylines and unexpected twists. We remind you that the focus of the viewers' attention is the Lyons family. Many years ago, Lucious and Cookie Lyon were engaged in drug trafficking, but their criminal activity was exposed. Then Cookie gives all the money to her husband and takes the blame upon herself. With this money, Lucious organizes his own company, Empire Entertainment.

17 years later, Cookie is released from prison and demands half of the business. From this moment, everything interesting begins. In the finale of the first season, Lucious' son - Jamal, becomes the heir to the empire, but the rest of the family members are against such a decision. They unite to change everything. So even former enemies become temporary allies. At the moment, two full seasons have already been released, the first one had 12 episodes, and the second chapter of the story had 18 episodes. The third season promises to be interesting and intense, the finale will take place in 2017. So the Lyon family story will have an interesting continuation.
