Netflix is reportedly adding a new Tiger King episode, according to star Jeff Lowe. On Twitter, Lowe revealed a new Tiger King episode would premiere on Netflix soon.
In a video addressed to Los Angeles Dodgers’ player Justin Turner and his wife Kourtney Pogue, (who recently discussed being obsessed with Tiger King on her podcast, Holding Kourt), Lowe teased the couple for their interest in the show in the clip on Twitter. “Thank you for watching our show, Christie said you’re a big fan, and, yeah, you need a life,” he said. “You just wasted seven hours on us.” Lowe also dropped some news that will interest many viewers of the popular documentary series. He said: “Netflix is adding one more episode, we’ll be on next week. We’re filming here tomorrow.” He signed-off by urging the public to stay safe amid the new coronavirus pandemic, adding: “Take care, stay safe, and put your mask on.”
Netflix dropped Tiger King: Murder, Madness and Mayhem on March 26, and the show became a sensation online. Tiger King explores the world of big cat breeding, focusing in particular on the crimes of Joseph Maldonado Passage, or Joe Exotic, a former country-musician, Oklahoma Zookeeper, gun enthusiast, and big cat breeder. Maldonado-Passage was found guilty in 2019 for paying a hitman $3,000 to murder Carole Baskin, his rival and founder of Big Cat Rescue. He owned an exotic animal park and often boasted of having the largest number of big cats in America.
