NCIS (8pm, CBS) - Season eight ends with team members in grave danger as they confront the Port-to-Port killer.

One Tree Hill (8pm, CW) - In the eighth season finale, Haley and Brooke get ready to operate Karen's old cafe and Chase takes off for the Air Force.

The Good Wife (10pm, CBS) - In the Season 2 finale, Alicia and Kalinda temporarily put aside their strained relationship to help prove that a client is innocent of murder. Also, in light of Alicia's separation from Peter, Will reevaluates his relationship with Tammy.

The Voice (10pm, NBC) - I hate this 10pm timeslot for "The Voice." I think it's no coincidence the show's big ratings drop last week coincided with its move to 10. Tonight, part two of the battle rounds as teammates are pitted against each other, with one being eliminated from each pairing.

Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel (10pm, HBO) - Included tonight, a look at the Yankees and Rex Sox efforts to help Bridget Johnson, who lost her leg in an accident, and a profile of broadcaster Bob Uecker.

Haven (10pm, Syfy) - Audrey's new Haven friends throw a surprise birthday party for her at a local hotel, but the celebration sours when the group learns that a predatory shape-shifter has replaced one of the party-goers. I hate when that happens.

Tonight is part one of a two-part finale, and the four remaning chefs -- Angelo, Ed, Kelly, and Kevin -- square off in Singapore. If Angelo (right) keeps making love to his dishes, he will most likely win the whole thing.
