There is the most excellent little thought-bubble floating about the internet at the moment. It reads:<\/p>\n

Imagine if 10 years ago you were approached by a time traveler and he was like, \u2018Look, I don\u2019t have much time to explain, all I can tell you is that the year 2020 is going to be an absolute circus. You know Donald Trump, the star of <\/em>The Apprentice? Well he\u2019s the President of the United States and at the beginning of 2020, he gets into a Twitter beef with Iran that almost starts World War 3. Australia catches on fire and a woman tries to save it by selling pictures of her boobs. Kobe Bryant passes away in a helicopter crash. Half the world is devastated, the other half just makes messed-up memes. A little time passes and just when the world starts recovering from the loss of Kobe, some dude in China eats a raw bat and starts a global pandemic that specifically kills maws and paw paws. Everyone loses their minds. 40 percent of the population thinks it\u2019s the end of the world, another 40 percent thinks it\u2019s all fake and 20 percent blame the whole thing on cell phone towers and Tom Hanks\u2019 kids. The one thing everyone seems to agree on is that the only way to survive is by hoarding toilet paper. Grocery stores are ransacked and Charmin Ultra-Soft essentially replaces the dollar as the United States\u2019 official currency. Eventually as hysteria grows, the only person that can keep the people from completely flipping out and starting a huge riot is a gun toting, mullet-sporting, Oklahoma man with a meth addiction and 180 pet tigers. <\/em><\/p>\n

It\u2019s shockingly accurate. Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem and Madness<\/em> has provided millions of Netflix viewers the escapism they need during this period of self-isolation. Whether the sequin-cloaked, big cat enthusiast Joe Exotic has shocked us to the core or simply steered our anxious minds away from our stale existences, pop culture\u2019s obsession with this man has spanned so wide that even Kim Kardashian West has reportedly vowed to free him from prison.<\/p>\n

But what do you watch once you\u2019ve streamed the entire season of Tiger King<\/em>? Here\u2019s three true-crime suggestions to numb the comedown \u2013 or at least bide your time ’til the next rumored episode drops next week. All streaming now in Netflix.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t Fuck With Cats<\/h5>\n

From big cats to actual small domestic cats, this series is about hunting a kitten killer. The most gripping part of it, though, is watching regular Jo\u2019s become the world’s greatest internet sleuths.<\/p>\n
