19 TV Shows (And 1 Film) Set In The Same Universe As Lost

17-16. Pushing Dasies And Once Upon A Time - Fairy Tales And Flight 815

You might chalk Crossing Jordan's use of Oceanic Airlines as coincidence and Flahsforward's advertisement as a homage to the show that proceeded it. But then how do you account for all the other over appearances of the fictitious airline throughout TV history? Take Bryan Fuller's one hit wonder Pushing Daises, which clearly featured an Oceanic Airlines advertisement in a travel agency during its pilot episode. You might all remember the airplane that flew over Storybrooke in season one of Once Upon A Time. It turns out that plane that belonged to none other than Oceanic Airlines. Once Upon A Time, you'll note, features among its many fairy tale characters, Sleeping Beauty and Maleficent, proving that there is a distinct link between this classic tale and the passengers of flight 815. But these are all small fry compared to the next entry, a day Oceanic Airlines wants everyone to forget€
