Use this Thanksgiving break -- and Christmas too -- to rest up. Don't overdo it during the holidays. You'll need to be strong to survive the onslaught of good TV that is coming in the new year.

The trailers below remind us that 'Justified,' the terrific FX drama starring Timothy Olyphant as a U.S. Marshal, comes back in January.

Also returning that month: 'Portlandia' (Jan. 6), 'Downton Abbey' (Jan. 8), 'Shameless' (Jan. 8), 'Spartacus' (Jan. 27), and that's to say nothing of the new shows that'll premiere that month, notably HBO's 'Luck' and Showtime's 'House of Lies.' It's going to be a busy, busy time.

Your next question no doubt is: What day does 'Justified' premiere? Well, we don't have an exact date yet, but I'll keep you posted if one is announced.

Raylan Givens fans are in for something of a dry spell. Now that the second season of FX's outstanding 'Justified' is over, we'll likely have to wait until early 2012 to see the U.S. Marshall again. The good news is that we'll also get a new Raylan Givens novel, appropriately titled 'Raylan,' from Elmore Leonard early next year.

At the Peabody Awards ceremony on Monday, Leonard spoke about the show -- the first television adaptation of his work to have both staying power and critical acclaim -- and I also sat down to talk with Graham Yost, the show's creator and executive producer, about what transpired in season 2 and where the show might go in season 3.

There are no spoilers as such in what's below, but it sounds as though the stories of Raylan (Timothy Olyphant) and fellow Harlan, Kentucky native Boyd Crowder (Walton Goggins) will be even more deeply intertwined going forward.
