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

13. Alias - Because Even The Coolest Agents Love Driveshaft

Before he started executive producer duties on Lost, JJ Abrams also served as the mastermind behind spy drama Alias. Given the Abrams connection, it's not surprising that during the fourth season of Alias (which ran concurrently with Lost's first year), there are connections between the two shows that establish a shared universe. Continuing with the Oceanic Air connection, a season four episode featured Sydney Bristow at LAX airport, where a boarding announcement for €œOceanic Airlines to Sydney" could be heard over the loudspeaker. But Lost also has a musical influence on the show; Charlie's band Driveshaft. In the same season, their hit song "You All Everybody" plays during a party at Sydney's house. At least his music was appreciated long after the band was dissolved.
