Well, I have to hand it to him, Mr. Murphy really delivered this time.

All in all, "Chapter 6" is a promising start to the back half of the season. It's too late for Season 6 to be declared a complete success, but it might be able to pull up from its nosedive.

As promised, Chapter 6 offered a massive twist, and it didn't even wait until the last 20 minutes to get crazy.

I legitimately love this reality show redux twist. Admittedly, I wasn't entirely confident that AHS could pull off this sort of mid-stream switch-up. But this episode was so much fun to watch.
