"Empire" Season 3 will again go on a hiatus and will return to screen with all-new episode on November 30. Rumors suggest that the FOX Network decided to delay its airing for Episode 7 because of Thanksgiving holiday.

The show has also been in hiatus for several weeks before because of the World Series and Presidential Debate. It can be recalled that "the highest-rated scripted series on TV, Fox's Empire, had a rough re-entry after a month-long hiatus for baseball coverage. In its first airing since October 12, the drama posted series-low marks of a 2.9 Live+Same Day rating in adults 18-49 and 8.1 million viewers," as reported by Deadline.

Many believed that the show will once again experience a significant drop in ratings when it goes back to screen next Wednesday and might eventually be canceled after Season 3. For some, the show is like being stuck in traffic where in every few minutes, you have an opportunity to be in motion a bit but then get jammed again and forced to wait in disappointment.

However, it has been said that fans of the series must look forward to the next episode as it will offer a lot of interesting scenes to make the lengthy wait worth it.

The Episode 7 entitled "What We May Be" will feature Cookie preparing for a dinner party to astound Angelo's mother.

The synopsis for the new episode reads:

"Cookie looks to Candace for tips on how to plan an elaborate family dinner that will impress Angelo's mother, Diane (guest star Phylicia Rashad). Meanwhile, old home videos cause Cookie to face secrets about her relationship with her father that she had tried to hide from her kids, and Andre organizes an unlikely duet."

In the sneak peek video of the episode, Jamal is criticized on TV for destroying his music career after getting shot by Freda gatz.

Lucious, on the other hand, is seen scolding his son for not performing again. "Artists that don't perform die, "he tells Jamal.

The promo clip also shows Cookie's planned dinner ruined by Lyon family. This is something very exciting.

In other news, Nia Long will return to Fox's hip-hop drama series play the role of Giuliana (Giusi), "a queenpin who runs a club in Las Vegas and makes brash moves in the gangster underworld of New York to secure a deal with Empire," according to Deadline.
