Vinyl (HBO): Is Richie Finestra A Murderer?

Of all the questions I have gotten about my Season 1 recaps, the most persistent was "why I say Richie murdered Frank "Buck" Rogers?"

So, now that the season is over, I am going back to do a quick but deep dive into one of the critical scenes of Episode 1 of Vinyl (HBO)

Vinyl (HBO) Episode 10: Zelig, Carnac, or "Record Man"

This is my Episode 10 recap of Vinyl (HBO) - The Season One Finale

They call the episode "Alibi" and I call my recap: Zelig, Carnac, or "Record Man."

In this episode, Richie kind of wins, Zac definitely loses, and The Nasty Bits are fictionally amazing?

Wow! HBO fires Winter in Spring for Vinyl

I am sadly not shocked to see that HBO released Terence Winter from his responsibilities as the showrunner of their series Vinyl.

Why does this move sadden me? Read on Vinyl lovers.
