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?

Vinyl (HBO), Unicorns, and the NYT
Vinyl (HBO), Unicorns, and the NYT

Vinyl has not been universally loved by critics. I am taking this opportunity to answer some of the most prominent and consistent criticisms of the show.
