Empire: Jussie Smollett's legal troubles are causing the show to be in limbo. The show has yet to be renewed for another season, and cast and crew are certainly panicking. Yet, the show is still the highest rated scripted show on FOX, barely beating 9-1-1. For the highest rated show on FOX, it should have been renewed by now, but it is not. I still think it will be renewed, but it will have to depend on whether Smollett gets fired.

Proven Innocent: Proven Innocent remains low, very low on Friday. It premiered DOA and is still steady around that number. But since WWE is coming to Friday, there is no need for Proven Innocent. It's certain to be canceled.

But for the other shows, the biggest race is Star vs. The Resident. Star leans cancelation due to expenses, while The Resident leans renewal. They are the shows I would argue to be pure toss-ups. It depends on Lee Daniels, and it definitely depends on WWE. We'll know more once Star returns and then we'll reassess.
