The story is full of twists and turns and has left viewers absolutely gobsmacked.
But while a lot of the outrageousness comes from wild animal keeper and gun-toting polygamist Joe Maldonado-Passage, aka Joe Exotic, and fellow industry counterpart Doc Antle, there is still a lot of talk about Carole Baskin.
The CEO and founder of Big Cat Rescue was framed as Joe's biggest rival and she certainly wasn't popular with other wild animal trainers.
But there is a big mystery on what happened to her ex-husband, Don Lewis, who disappeared in August 1997.

Enter O.J. Simpson, who, after watching the show, has a theory on what went down.
After finishing a round of golf, he took to Twitter to upload his thoughts.
"I watched about six episodes of this show and I couldn't believe what I was looking at," the Juice said in the clip. "One thing I will say, there's not a shred of doubt in my mind that that lady's husband is tiger sashimi right now. I'm just saying."
Carole vehemently denies any involvement in her husband's disappearance and has hit back against the claims aired by the documentary series in a lengthy post on her blog.

She said: "When the directors of the Netflix documentary Tiger King came to us five years ago they said they wanted to make the big cat version of Blackfish (the documentary that exposed abuse at SeaWorld) that would expose the misery caused by the rampant breeding of big cat cubs for cub petting exploitation and the awful life the cats lead in roadside zoos and back yards if they survive."
"There are not words for how disappointing it is to see that the docuseries not only does not do any of that, but has had the sole goal of being as salacious and sensational as possible to draw viewers.
"As part of that, it has a segment devoted to suggesting, with lies and innuendos from people who are not credible, that I had a role in the disappearance of my husband Don 21 years ago."

Thanks to the popularity of the show, local police have shared a call-out for new leads on the case, hoping the publicity surrounding Don Lewis' disappearance will help them finally discover what really happened.
Who knows whether they will find new leads, but one thing's for sure in this story - anything is possible.
