** In ''{{Series/Alias}}'', Sydney grew up with a dead mother and a distant father. She repaired her relationship with her father during their CIA work, though not without some hiccups along the way. Her mother is actually still alive [[spoiler: and is a major villain, having deliberately abandoned Sydney as part of her mission.]]
** The PointOfDivergence for Abrams's ''Star Trek'' timeline is the untimely death of George Kirk at the hands of the Romulan Nero. James Kirk grows up with a mean stepfather, leading him to be an angrier and more rebellious man than in the original timeline.
** Both of Abrams's ''Star Wars'' films focus on Rey's parentage. In ''Film/TheForceAwakens'', Rey is introduced as a slave of Unkar Plutt after her parents left her on Jakku, and the major unresolved mystery in the film is who her parents are. ''Film/TheRiseOfSkywalker'' then reveals that she is [[spoiler: Palpatine's granddaughter]] and that her parents abandoned her to keep her safe from [[spoiler: his plot to steal her body.]]

* JigsawPuzzlePlot: His "Mystery Box" concept is built around keeping secrets and raising questions so that an audience will keep guessing. This approach has garnered some criticism. The problem is that according to critics, he always [[AntiClimax forgets to put something interesting, satisfying or impactful in said box]] or [[TheUnreveal anything at all]], essentially leading audiences like donkeys with a carrot on a stick. That is not counting the possibility of TheChrisCarterEffect happening.

Contrary to popular belief, Abrams' involvement in ''Series/{{Lost}}'' was marginal; Abrams and eventually Creator/DamonLindelof were asked to help flesh out a concept for the show when Creator/{{ABC}} chairman Lloyd Braun rejected Jeffrey Lieber's treatment, but by the time the first season started to take off, Abrams had already left to direct ''Film/MissionImpossibleIII''. Lindelof, suddenly left alone with the burden of being {{showrunner}}, considered quitting as well, but was convinced by former co-writer Carlton Cuse to stay. Cuse then joined the show as a second showrunner. Abrams remained an executive producer, and later briefly returned to write the season 3 premiere together with Lindelof, but as [[WordOfGod he and others stated in numerous interviews]] Lindelof and Cuse ran the show entirely without him.
