Jeffrey Donovan, who's been pretty scarce since "Burn Notice" ended in 2013, is poised to make a pretty big return this fall.

Most notably for "Burn Notice" fans, he's returning to quirky series drama with a supporting role in the upcoming season of the critically beloved FX crime-drama "Fargo."

He might be a bit hard to notice amid all the other guests, though. This season will reportedly also feature Ted Danson, Patrick Wilson, Nick Offerman, Jean Smart and more.

12 Monkeys, on Syfy

The fight for humanity’s future continues as time-traveler Cole (Aaron Stanford) races against the clock to stop a devastating outbreak before it begins. The thriller is inspired by the 1995 blockbuster movie of the same name.

Q: We love "Downton Abbey," but the seasons only last seven or eight weeks. Why is it so short?

Author: 
Adam Thomlison / TV Media

The basic problem is that "Downton Abbey" is a British show made for British TV, and the Brits make their shows short.

A season with episodes in the single digits ("Downton" started with seven, but later seasons have had nine) is the norm for British drama and comedy shows.
