Tiger King: The Doc Antle Story

Now it's all clear why Doc wasn't in Tiger King 2. They had a whole other franchise with Doc Antle, and I'm glad at least Netflix is showing Buddhists as being nutso since they've done so for Christians like all Hollywood... I here about how robotic Christians are but at least we don't follow a guy who resembles a weeble wobble...

As far as documentaries go, or in this case, a reality show, once you have to start doing cheesy reenactments, then, in this case, the tiger has jumped the shark... Reenactments are so lame... If I see too many of them in any kind of documentary I'll turn them off... The original Tiger King had none of them and relied on interviews and was entertaining but these reenactments are just plain lame...

Mostly here are former employee women saying that they were molested by Doc when they were teenagers, and so now Doc is being accused of having sex with minors... But before MeToo, Hollywood gave Roman Polanski an Oscar and signed a petition to make him a free man, so... that's where we're coming from here folks...

But 100 more women can claim Doc did these thing but, like Carol will NEVER GO TO JAIL for her husband's death, Doc won't be touched by ANY OF THIS because there is no actual proof, and sorry folks, but, in this life, powerful people get away with really bad things...

As for Doc, if he's a guru and he created a following and has women sleep with HIM and NO ONE ELSE, let's face it folks, every multi-millionaire actor and rock star does the SAME THING in their very own way.

Tiger King was presented as a fun trashy mess with a whole cast of equally crazy characters.

Turns out, one of those characters abused, raped, groomed and pimped out teenage girls for literal decades.

Some of this footage was from the same interviews as the original series. There is no way the filmmakers were not aware of how dark and serious the situation here was. And they decided first to show us wacky Joe and his bizarre rivalry with a woman in Florida. I guess now that they needed a third series we can get around to exposing the actual crimes that took place?

Tiger King was supposed to be an exposure of a dirty industry, so it leaves a bad taste in my mouth that not only did they choose to ignore the blatant abuse in favor of a "better" story but also that now Netflix wants to milk all the money out of this franchise it's now a story worth telling.

Compared to the original Tiger King, it has nothing in it, to hold my attention. Could hardly finish the first episode. I won't be watching any more. 5 stars is a generous rating..

Don't think of Joe Exotic weird. Head In to it with a new story in mind. The story is captivating and the characters are interesting. But what makes this show is the editing and format. Wonderfully done.

It's worth a watch if you're intrigued and want to know more on these big cat fanatics and some of their odd and dodgy antics, but it's really just a supplementary filler with a bit of overly dramatic suggestions that Doc Antle is also a murderer. All characters in the Tiger King debacle have power and control issues, and this is just another piece of the puzzle. It's nothing fantastic, but it'll quench your thirst if you were intrigued by the other Tiger King articles.
