Commentary: 'Tiger King' confuses binge-watching 'justice' with the real thing. That's a problem
The co-directors of the wild Netflix docuseries “Tiger King” discuss Joe Exotic, the series’ animal rights message and the reaction from fans.
This car wreck of a show is a disturbing ride through the world of big cat breeder/wildlife collector Joe Exotic . He’s an attention-seeking sociopath whose fiefdom was an Oklahoma roadside zoo attraction, a gun-waving internet troll who openly stalked and threatened his enemies in graphic video screeds, a gay polygamist who isfor orchestrating an unsuccessful murder-for-hire plot ... and for killing the tigers he supposedly loved.
His human target was Carole Baskin, a social media star who runs a big cat rescue and sanctuary in Tampa, Fla. She’s loved byand hated by swaggering, macho showmen like Joe. Baskin’s wealthy older husband Don Lewis disappeared 23 years ago. Her detractors think she murdered him. Baskin is loathed by the exotic animal breeders and zoo owners featured in “Tiger King,” many of whom are male, anti-government and express anger that a woman has come after their livelihoods and bested them. She has money, big catsthe law on her side. Meanwhile, her nemeses are an ex-con who served time for strangling his wife, the leader of a zoo/cult whose multiple “wives” refer to him as a god , a failed strip club manager and Joe Exotic.
The drama is also filled with characters who’ve lost their limbs in tiger attacks and zip-lining accidents, their teeth to meth addiction, their lives to suicide. Gawk away.
