My first experience with J.J. Abrams, came from my obsession with the show LOST. LOST was a television show that revolutionized how television was experienced. Before, it was thought of as a medium for cheap laugh tracks and never ending dramas. LOST turned television into an event outside of the screen. It became a community where LOSTies (as they called themselves) would get together and discuss theories about the show. Because of LOST, I decided to check out other J.J. classics and have grown fonder and fonder of his work, as time has passed. This fondness led me to J.J. Abram's TED talk entitled "The Mystery Box."
