3. Abrams and Lindelof Lied Their Faces Off

Going into the production, ABC executives were concerned that Abrams was going to make his show a little too serialized. You see, the continuing adventures of Sydney Bristow had made Alias a difficult show to jump into; in other words, it was pretty inaccessible to new fans. In order to skirt this criticism, J.J. Abrams and Damon Lindelof straight up lied to executives and claimed that every episode of the new series would be self-contained. Meanwhile, the masterminds behind Lost intended a four-to-five season arc (at least) right off the bat.
