Lens Flaring Up: LOST's 2006 third season premiere
J.J. stepped back into the ring multiple times after creating, writing and directing LOST's pilot, most notably in the third season premiere "A Tale of Two Cities," which despite the second season's lukewarm reception got us right back on track with the curveball revelation of the Others living on the Island in their own little suburban society, and gave the show a renewed sense of momentum to carry itself for four more seasons.

Lens Flaring Up: 1998 on
Where would our favorite TV shows be without the iconic title cards and theme music that accompany them? That's why we owe Abrams our ears for composing the catchy memorable tunes behind Alias, Felicity, and yes, even Fringe! Take a listen and let it reverberate through your brain!

Lens Flaring Up: The 2009 MTV Movie Awards
Whether or not you enjoy Andy Samberg or pay any attention to the MTV Movie Awards, you couldn't help but enjoy the spot-on parody "Cool Guys Don't Look At Explosions," and the seemingly random cameo from guilty offender J.J. Abrams on keyboard. So pull up a chair, and watch for yourself! We promise, minimal lens flares.
