As the series barrels towards its final six episodes and inevitable denouement, the stakes have been made abundantly clear. Gone are all the notions that the show is “about” some massive scientific experiment gone wrong that was perpetrated by the Dharma Initiative. Indeed, I can’t remember off hand the last time the group was mentioned by name, although as it so happens the name “Dharma” means “righteous path.” And it’s become evident that that is what the show is truly about: following a righteous path toward, perhaps, enlightenment. The light is now dawning for all the remaining survivors and, thank God, for the viewer.
