In case KoCoLoCo isn't around...my sister found this recipe and I used it last year and it was easy and a pick hit.  I skipped the fresh herbs and just used salt and pepper and then added juices after the turkey was done.

 

1/2 cup all purpose flour
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) butter, cut into pieces
5 cups canned low-salt chicken broth

3 tablespoons minced mixed fresh herbs (such as parsley, sage, savory and/or thyme)

For gravy:

Toast flour in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat until pale golden (about the color of peanuts), stirring constantly, about 7 minutes. Remove skillet from heat. Add butter and whisk until butter melts and mixture is smooth (mixture will become very dark). Gradually whisk in broth. Bring to boil over medium heat, whisking frequently. Reduce heat; simmer until gravy is reduced to 2 1/2 cups, about 30 minutes. (Can be made 8 hours ahead. Cover and chill.)
