Threshold

Perhaps you are watching Invasion because it is on after Lost. I assure you that the superior alien invasion series this fall is Threshold, Friday nights on CBS.

The basic setup is Carla Gugino (always glad to see her) and her nerdy pals in Team Threshold (including Brent Spiner and Peter Dinklage) attempt to clandestinely prevent aliens from mutating the genral populace. Charles S. Dutton is their government liason. Oh, and several of the characters might be mutating, as well.

The writing and acting can be subpar at times, certainly (what planet is Dutton giving his performance from?), but there's something genuinely creepy every episode, and I am a big sucker for aliens, as well as Gugino. Plus there's nowhere else on TV where you can get your recommended weekly dose of Dinklage.
