About 10 minutes into last night’s episode of “Alias”, Sydney (Jennifer Ganer) was having a birthday bash at her place, and needed to stop out onto the patio to talk with her SpyDaddy Jack. Someone opened the door to interrupt, and in the background you can clearly hear the song “You Are Everybody”, by Driveshaft playing.
Driveshaft is a fictitious band from the TV series “Lost”. Charlie, one of the castaways, used to be in a hugely popular british rock band fronted by two brothers who didn’t quite get along. Yeah, Charlie was in Oasis. Except not Oasis, Driveshaft.
The connection between the shows is that the creator/producer of both is JJ Abrams. Another connection is that the pilot of the downed airplane in “Lost” is played by the same actor who portrays Agent Weiss on “Alias” - and happens to be a childhood friend of Abrams.
Abrams was also responsible for that show about the chick with the big hair who goes to college a few years ago. Something that started with a “k” or a “t”, I think. Anyways, I never watched that one, so I don’t know of any relations between that show and the new ones (although I think Pilot/Agent Weiss had a role on that one, too; as did Jennifer Garner).

I think the show was “Felicity” and yes, I believe Weiss was on it too.
