    Anyone catch this episode style documentary on Netflix? It’s pretty good as it focuses on a few people who collect big cats and exotic animals for profit and how it connects and led to murder in one or more cases and some other crimes. I kept hearing people talk about it so I checked it out. So far so good.

    I know! Guy is a tot freak! And the lady activist ironically seems like a nut-job too in my opinion.

    I'm pretty sure she's responsible for the death of her husband too.

    She was cold as ice. She's just as big a piece of shit as everybody else in this thing, but about 1000 times smarter then all those schmucks. She could have fed 10 different people to those tigers and we'd never know.

    These other assholes would find some way to incriminate themselves in some way or another, every time they stepped in a puddle.

    That line rubbed me the wrong way when he said it. Tells a lot about his true character in that everyone was talking about the family like atmosphere they all had, yet when her arm got ripped off he never once acknowledgeds her well being instead worrying about how this is going to effect his business. It says something that everyone fell in love with this guy even starting a free him campaign.


    Apparently the popularity of this documentary has caused the police to reopen the investigation in her husband’s disappearance.

    it's absurd
    he had a 2 week long trial, but the 30min shown about the case on Netflix is enough to disregard the whole judicial system

    I'd be surprised if they got anything on her. She's too savvy for them. I watched the whole thing, and there's a great chance she disappeared him, but any evidence speaking to that seems to be completely circumstantial or heresay.

    I think this show is severely overrated. Don’t get me wrong it’s not bad (hell, I started the thread) but this mainstream popularity peak that it’s been on is definitely not deserved based on the actual quality level of the show.

    I watched up to episode 3 when I made this thread and I haven’t had any motivation or desire to go back to it even though I’ve had several opportunities. I instead chose to watch other things including a bunch of rewatches.

    It gets more and more bonkers. Just finish it up.

    It's not high art, but it's entertaining as fuck in a trash fire sort of way.

    Yeah, the coverage is a bit overboard, including the backlash and the constant over-analyzation of the show. I think a lot of that is because there's no sports and we're all fucking bored right now.

    You'd enjoy it more if everybody wasn't writing about it on a near constant basis. It can just be what it is, instead of getting analyzed left, right and backwards, just because it became successful.

    It's alright but definitely not must binge watch tv. I watch one episode per 2 days or so when I have nothing to do. I'm on 5 or 6 now. Almost done. 7/10 . Closer to 8 than 6
