GrantNKY Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 I can't believe I got suckered into watching this crap. Little to no redeeming qualities to this whole thing. That’s kind of the point of the whole documentary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrantNKY Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 I think everyone agrees that private individuals should not own exotic or endangered animals. We look at everyone in this documentary as nuts and more than just a bit narcissistic for owning them, right? Then why isn't Shaq on blast for buying "Two more" tigers from Joe Exotic? Shaq has said that he doesn't own Tigers at his house, since this all broke. Is he being coy by saying, "at his house" meaning he has them elsewhere? He clearly says on Tiger King that he's buying two more tigers. 100%. Private ownership of Tigers should have a no tolerance policy. Unless they are in a legitimate zoo, there should be no Tigers in America. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voice of Reason Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 This is a documentary, not a reality tv show. OK. That makes it more interesting to me. I don't like Dateline and those types of shows either, but thanks for letting me know that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDeuce Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 Is what why I normally watch TV? Have you never watched something because everybody is talking about how great a show or movie is? I meant do you watch to find “redeeming qualities” in the TV you watch? People aren’t watching it for that reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldweatherfan Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 I meant do you watch to find “redeeming qualities” in the TV you watch? People aren’t watching it for that reason. Yes I do. There is a lot of good content out there. I'm not saying everything has to be epic or monumental. Funny is a redeeming quality. Thought provoking is a redeeming quality. Sports are redeeming. I find no redeeming quality in shows that thrive off of human weakness. They call this a documentary, in my opinion, it is not. It's a stupid reality show trying to pretend it is something else.

True blue (and gold) Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 There is a new episode out. It’s a follow up with interviews after the show premiered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jumper_Dad Posted April 18, 2020 Author Share Posted April 18, 2020 20/20 did a special last night on Sigfried and Roy and the Tiger attack on Roy. It just reconfirmed my opinion that people that own big cats and other dangerous exotic animals are more than just a bit "Off." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn’t really provide a whole lot of new insight. The 3 people we’re all most interested in aren’t in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should all be admitted to mental institutions as far as I’m concerned. I don’t trust anyone that owns any pets besides domesticated dogs and cats. I think they all have more than just a screw loose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't believe there are people that keep venomous snakes for no other reason than just to say they have them. I'm not talking about people that milk them for antivenom, just the idiots that own them as "Pets." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Professor Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 I watched some of the first episode and decided pretty fast that it wasn’t a program I cared much about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
