Is anyone else watching Tiger King on Netflix?
We are on episode 2 and can’t quite believe what we are seeing.

Batshit, Crazy, mad and totally addictive.
Having spent a lot of time in Miami, it’s easy to recognize these sorts of people.
I can well believe that Scarface was based on Mario Tabraue (allegedly smuggled drugs by stuffing snakes full of them).

Episode 3 is bonkers and it just keeps getting crazier.

WineGetsMeThroughIt · 31/03/2020 02:24

It's train wreck TV. I'm obsessed. 😂 I've never seen so many mullets in my life. I honestly didn't know these type of people actually existed in real life lol. I'm also amazed that the guys two husbands - who clearly were never gay from the start actually formed a relationship with him. They go from looking like normal decent young lads to trailer trash hillbillies throughout the show. I genuinely felt bad for them.

Have a fantastic evening all you cool cats and kittens 😂🐯

EVERYONE is watching Tiger King, it's incredible!

yatapina · 31/03/2020 02:50

I binge watched it this week and still have no idea who the hell was up to what 😳

I'm sure the main mullet man was on a Louis Theroux show years back too.

rainbow1982 · 31/03/2020 03:36

Yatapina he was! I watched the Louis Theroux show and couldn't believe him then, I binged watched the tiger king in one day 🙄🤣

waterlego · 31/03/2020 07:51

I watched it all a week or so ago at a point where no one I know was watching it and I had no one to discuss it with 😩 Am enjoying talking about it now that more people have seen it.

Winegetsme, Yes those poor lads 😐 There was a really strange bit where Travis spoke direct to camera saying that he was happy with Joe etc. He looked really uncomfortable and lost. It was so sad 😕

Sexnotgender · 31/03/2020 07:54

I’ve watched 4 episodes. I hope “Doc” Antle gets eaten by a tiger, slowly. What a cunt.

Fizzypoo · 31/03/2020 07:59

Its totally bizarre, I binge watched it in two evenings.

The songs and videos were absolutely hilarious Grin

SimonJT · 31/03/2020 07:59

It’s amazing!

Is anyone else watching Tiger King?

Great show, absolutely batshit crazy people! Felt awful for all 3 of his husband's, the last one I believe was gay unlike the first two but at the end I felt bad for him too, it's like they were entranced by him or something, I suppose the drug addiction didn't help matters. Who reckons the woman definitely made her husband disappear? She was creepy as all get out!!

maa1992 · 31/03/2020 08:11

I loved it, absolute train wreck of a show

waterlego · 31/03/2020 08:19

Fizzypoo Yes, the songs! 😂 Joe looking all earnest as he crooned ‘I saw a taaaagerrrrrr’

Wasn’t he wearing a dog collar in one of the videos too? Such a strange man, but amazingly doesn’t even seem that awful compared to some of the others.

chickensaresafehere · 31/03/2020 11:40

There's a thread in Streamed tv about it.

BanKittenHeels · 31/03/2020 13:51

Saw the previews for Episode 3 last night and shouted “whaaaaat??”

Is it real though? Where do they get all the footage from? It's just seems a bit unlikely that everyone would agree to being filmed - or that they would handily find a bit of CCTV footage of key events! Not to mention the guy being interviewed in the bath??! Why?

goldpendant · 31/03/2020 14:03

Also binged it over the last two evenings - LOVED it. Totally batshit. Couldn't believe my eyes!

Weekday28 · 31/03/2020 14:06

Omg yes! Watched 2 eps last night and can not wait to get kids to bed tonight to watch more

Nearlyalmost50 · 31/03/2020 14:07

Seventyone72seventy3 I think the footage is from multiple sources- The Tiger King himself was definitely already interviewed by Louis Theroux (I remember the mullet and the gay husbands and the tigers) years before, he's made videos, songs (!) and a nightly TV show for years. All of the prior events (I'm not going to list as spoilers) were recorded in TV news and newspapers. I think the documentary maker started out making the documentary five years ago and it was mainly going to be just interviews of all the main big cat people, but then things happened in that 5 years. It's documentary gold, basically!

BanKittenHeels · 01/04/2020 05:48

This is what I wonder.

I wondered if Joe could of been behind Carols hugs and disappearance.
Not a single person on that show cared about tigers.

Borntobeamum · 01/04/2020 15:05

Does anyone think Carol is innocent?!

nellythenarwhal · 01/04/2020 15:24

I've watched it.
I needed a breather between each episode to digest what I'd seen.

Runkle · 01/04/2020 15:42

I think in the opening episode it was said that Joe wanted everything filmed day to day.

JKScot4 · 01/04/2020 15:46

The animal abuse is abhorrent and the fact that so many people go to these places is very sad.
In the end though for all he’s vile I do think Joe was set up, Jeff Lowe is a sociopath and Doc is like a cult leader, very off the way he’s sexualised everything 🤮🤮
