“STAR” Preempted For World Series Game 7; Show Returns November 8 (First Look)

The “May The Best Manager Win” episode will now air on November 8.

The Los Angeles Dodgers have forced a Game 7 in their World Series battle with the Houston Astros.

FOX’s coverage of that seventh game will air on the night of Wednesday, November 1.

As a result, the previously scheduled installments of “Empire” and “STAR” will be bumped to November 8.

Entitled “May The Best Manager Win,” the “STAR” episode will address numerous ongoing plot points.

“Ayana is quickly reminded of the tremendous pressure she is under to make her family proud, when her father (guest star Richard Roundtree) – a legendary music label executive – pays a visit to Midtown,” says the official FOX synopsis. “Alex continues to be haunted by her lies to Derek; Star and Simone differ on how best to deal with Brody’s mysterious return; and Noah faces a tense encounter with the police during an event thrown by the label. Meanwhile, Jahil works on a plan to debut a new duo he’s discovered, featuring his nephew, Angel (guest star Evan Ross), and Ayanna’s assistant (guest star Elijah Kelley).”

Viewers will have to wait until November 8 to actually watch the episode.

They can, however, view photos from the broadcast right now. FOX shared production photos from “May The Best Manager Win,” and we embedded the gallery below:
