The show was launched last weekend, and now is the perfect time to call your best true-crime loving mates and start binging.
It follows the crazy world of big cat collectors, and its eccentric star Joe Exotic has quickly become one of the most talked about people on social media.
Carole Baskin is one of them. She is Florida’s Big Cat Rescue owner and arch nemesis to Joe Exotic.
She wrote a blog post on her website, refuting the alleged “misinformation” put forward by the show in regards to the mysterious disappearance of her husband Don Lewis in 1997, who Joe Exotic alleges she either “fed to her tigers” or dumped his remains “in a septic tank”.
“The series presents this without any regard for the truth or in most cases even giving me an opportunity before publication to rebut the absurd claims.
“They did not care about truth. The unsavoury lies are better for getting viewers,” she wrote.
Bhagavan ‘Doc’ Antle who runs The Institute for Greatly Endangered and Rare Species, T.I.G.E.R.S. in South Carolina has slammed the insinuation that he was a polygamist.
“I’m not married and I certainly don’t have wives, I certainly am a single guy and I live in a house by myself,” Antle told Oxygen.
“I do not have a harem. I’m what they call ‘OFG’ these days: old, fat and grey. I embrace that character and I am not chasing down women. Twenty years ago I was more of a dashing fellow but even then I was ultra-conservative,” he said about his depiction.
