What we're watching: Lost is still the show to watch, we guess. The last few episodes have been a bit of a drag, here's hoping they pick things up. Invasion wraps up their first (and last, thanks Bob!) season tonight, along with CSI:NY, Law & Order and Bones. The Detroit Pistons start from scratch tonight trying to put away the Cleveland Cavaliers with their series tied 2-2. The defending champ San Antonio Spurs however are just trying to stay alive after falling down 3-1 to the Dallas Mavericks. Think Mark Cuban can smell the Conference finals yet?Our traditional high-def listings continue below.

According to what I read in the Boston Globe today, Invasion's first season is also its last. Hope they tie things up tonight!
Ouch. according to TV Squad you're right

It's funny, all the networks had sci-fi shows to start the season and I don't think any of them will be coming back for a second. There was threshold, invasion and the one with the sea monster, is that still on?
LOst is going to eventually have to come up with soem answers...how long can these questions keep going on? Is it going to be sci fi...i hate scifi!
