The Tiger King is back, after having made a splash with Netflix’s breakout docuseries. Yes, Joe Exotic is in the spotlight once again (did he ever leave?) in ‘Surviving Joe Exotic,’ a new documentary. While we have seen the larger than life zoo owner’s eccentricities, rivalries, and gradual descent into crime, the new documentary will shine a light on how the people around him perceived Exotic to be.
We will learn how he treated the animals and the workers. Coming back is Saff Saffery, the former manager who lost an arm to a tiger attack. Saff’s been upbeat about the incident and will offer more information about Exotic. We will also see Gaylynn Eastwood, a zoo employee. From what we understand, this individual will give us a look into how Exotic treated the various cats he had.
It seems that Joe might be shown in an unflattering light. The Netflix series and subsequent interviews have brought his behavior towards animals into the public eye again. The common consensus is that Exotic was focused on money as the bottom line rather than the care of animals. However, ‘Surviving Joe Exotic’ promises to be more uplifting than the Netflix series, insofar as we will learn about the animals who made it through Joe’s zoo, and went on to live elsewhere.
Finally, the main attraction is an interview by Joe Exotic himself. Well, it is not a recent interview, since Joe is in prison. However, it was filmed four months before he was arrested. Overall, ‘Surviving Joe Exotic’ promises to provide us with more details about the man who has captivated our attention ever since we saw him in the Netflix show. So, where and how can you watch ‘Surviving Joe Exotic’?
