Our TV critic dissects 'Tiger King 2,' including whether it addressed her criticisms of the original, and whether she would recommend it as worth a watch.
With the release of “Tiger King 2,” Times TV critic Lorraine Ali dug into five episodes’ worth of new material in Netflix’s bombastic docuseries, which took the world by storm in the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic. Senior editor Matt Brennan had some questions for her about her reaction to the sequel, which premiered Wednesday with little fanfare — including whether it addressed her criticisms of the original, and whether she would recommend it as worth a watch.
Big Cat Rescue owner Carole Baskin — and the trailer didn’t give you much hope. Now that you’ve watched, what say you?Advertisement The “Tiger King 2” filmmakers are clearly aware of the issue, since they flick at it early on in the first episode via a PETA representative who briefly addresses the misogyny and the public’s disturbing reaction to Baskin . . But in the main she’s still unfairly cast as a murderous Black Widow type. After all, the series is not about Joe Exotic. He’s rarely in the sequel, save for a few calls from prison, where he’s serving time for hatching a murder-for-hire plot against Baskin.
You’re a big true crime buff. What do “Tiger King” and “Tiger King 2" tell you about the state of the genre, and Netflix’s approach to it?
