I feel bad for the animals in all of it. When he starts to lose control over it all then yeah. Otherwise he seemed to look after them despite being caged. His obsession for Carole and killing her was scary. I was literally going 'wtf' so many times. Like when he started singing at the funeral. And when Cheryl (Travis' mum) decided to go to the wedding only 2 months after Did enjoy what Glover did though 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rab 877 Posted April 1, 2020 A fact that they never mentioned during the show, which blew my mind at why they never mentioned it was the crocodiles that were killed during the studio fire used to belong to Michael Jackson. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, that was a separate interview though. It was never mentioned in Tiger King (not that I can remember at least). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cicero 3,759 Posted April 2, 2020 Guess what mother fucker Honesty Joe Exotic is one of the funniest and most interesting characters on the planet. When he was talking about his husbands balls at the funeral and being dragged by the tiger had me in stitches. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

carefreeluke 585 Posted April 5, 2020 For those who enjoyed the show, I recommend the Louis Theroux documentary about Dangerous Pets as Joe Exotic features heavily in that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gunnersauraus 654 Posted April 18, 2020 Just starting watching it. Don't really get why people hate Baskin. I think it's because she tells people things they don't wanna hear. People don't like to be told something they are doing may be wrong. Animals in zoos should always be about conservation. They have to make money but the aim of zoos should always be that one day we don't need them. I love zoos and I think they are necessary at the moment. But if they weren't necessary I would never go to one. I think Joey exotic loves animals and I don't believe he would abuse them from what I have seen so far. I think if they sat down and talked they would realise they have more in common than they think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Smiley Culture 1,339 Posted April 18, 2020 It’s utter crap. I didn’t actually really enjoy it, if I’m honest. Like I wasn’t gripped by it, it was more like I just couldn’t take my eyes off the continual weirdness that went on from one episode to the next. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gunnersauraus 654 Posted April 18, 2020 What's quite funny is how many people are certain Baskin fed her husband to the tigers. But tigers don't eat bones. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anyway I'm pretty certain she was investigated and no evidence was found. She may have done it I don't know but personally I gonna say innocent untill proven guilty. If she did it's very unlikely she fed him to her big cats she would be a lot more likely to get caught that way there would be DNA everywhere. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But when I say that i mean I'm not certain she is guilty but I think she certainly might be. There are some very strange things that happened and she doesn't seem to show any emotion when she talks about him. I think I was wrong and tigers do sometimes eat bones but I don't think she fed him to a tiger as that would be very risky because there would be DNA everywhere. I think it's more likely she paid someone to kill him Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
