Carole Baskin probably wasn't expecting to become a household name in 2020, but once it happened, the Tiger King star took full advantage of her newfound fame.
These days, Baskin is competing on Dancing With the Stars, which basically means she's sauntering around the stage in flower crowns and making tiger claw gestures at the camera to the tune of various cat-themed pop hits.
If you think back to the beginning of this pesky little pandemic we find ourselves in, you might remember a time when we all thought social distancing would last a couple weeks, and the Netflix documentary Tiger King dominated the national conversation.
These days, we have more important matters to argue about than the misadventures of Joe Exotic, but as the world burns, questions remain about the checkered past of Exotic's number one rival.
Dancing with the Stars has cast many shady characters over the years.
Remember the outcry over Sean Spicer?
Tiger King star Carole Baskin's crusade for the rights of big cats isn't limited to her neck of the woods.
Like everyone else, she's talking about Cardi B's WAP video ... and argues that it could be harmful.
You'd think that with Joe Exotic in prison and the world having finally moved on from attempting to solve the mystery of who killed Carole Baskin's husband, the drama of Tiger King would finally be at an end.
But if you've ever met anyone like the man-children who made the Netflix docu-series such a hit, you know they spend their entire lives wrapped up in petty squabbles and courting legal troubles until they eventually drive their ATVs off a ravine, and the coroner finds a couple gallons of Busch Light sloshing around in their guts.
Hey... remember Tiger King?!?
It was this wildly popular Netflix documentary that seemingly the entire country was watching early on during the Covid-19 pandemic?
There's a non-zero percent chance that Carole Baskin killed her ex-husband and fed his corpse to a tiger.
So it's pretty hard to feel bad for the Tiger King star.
Tiger King star Carole Baskin has already clapped back at murder allegations leveled at her by the now-infamous Joe Exotic.
Now, she is putting the whole documentary on blast in her first interview since it aired, saying that millions of viewers missed the point.
By now, you've almost certainly heard about the Netflix phenomenon that is Tiger King.
And unless you're one of those weirdos who's spending their quarantine pursuing a new hobby or re-connecting with family, there's a good chance you've watched the entire thing six or seven times and launched your own cold case investigation into the disappearance of Carole Baskin's husband.
There are two questions on the minds of American these days:
Will we ever be able to go outside again -- and did Carole Baskin actually feed her husband to tigers?
Tiger King is unique from many reality shows and documentary series, in that it filmed for several years before a single episode aired.
Actually, Tiger King is unique from other documentary series in just about every way, but let's stick with this one difference for now.
March of 2020 found many of us asking questions we'd never contemplated before:
Chief among them - will we ever be able to go outside again? And, of course, did Carole Baskin really feed her husband to tigers?
Carole Baskin may or may not have killed her late husband and fed him to a tiger.
(Although Baskin swears she did not.)
Unless you've taken your self-isolation so seriously that you're currently in an underground bunker reading the nutrition labels on canned goods for entertainment, then you're probably familiar with the outrageously popular Neflix docu-series Tiger King.
One of the many, many reasons the series has become such a sensation is that it raises as many questions as it answers.
The Netflix series Tiger King is a near-flawless piece of documentary filmmaking, but if you'll allow us to engage in a bit of nit-picking, we have pinpointed a couple minor defects:
For one thing, all of the protagonists are so deeply f--ked up that choosing one to root for is a virtual impossibility.
I'm going to go ahead and assume that if you are here, you've already tuned in to Netflix's new docuseries Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem, and Madness that dropped on Friday, March 20.
Also going to assume that, like me, you came for the cute baby tigers and stayed for the mess.
