J.J. Abrams to Rule the World

J.J. Abrams (creator of Lost, Alias, and Felicity and writer/director of the recent Mission Impossible III) recently signed two huge deals: a 5-year movie contract with Paramount and a 6-year tv deal with Warner Brothers. Combined, it totals upwards of $60 million. I'd rather J.J. stick to one or two great projects. If you're a longtime fan of Alias, you remember how the show took a creative nosedive when he left for better things, and my bet is that the same thing happens with Lost. If J.J. feels compelled to begin a new project, well, a sultry color calendar wouldn't be all that time-consuming.
