Chances are you’ve heard about the Netflix docuseries “Tiger King,” which tells a twisting tale of murder-for-hire, arson, a missing person, thousands of tigers, and polyamory – and that’s just scratching the surface.
The docuseries ends – spoilers – with Joe Exotic, the titular king, in jail for murder-for-hire, and falsifying records, while the owner of the GW Zoo, Jeff Lowe, walked free. However, many people are confused as to why Lowe was seemingly able to get off scot-free, while plenty of people in the docuseries claimed that Lowe was just as responsible for Exotic’s crimes.
Thankfully, it seems like we’re going to get some answers. According to a video on Cameo, an app that allows people to pay for personalized video messages from celebrities and public figures, there’s at least one more episode of “Tiger King” on the way.

In the video, Lowe and his wife Lauren state that "Netflix is adding one more episode, we'll be on next week. We're filming here tomorrow."
In another Cameo, Lowe teased the recipient for "giving up 7 hours of your life on us," but continued to say that "Netflix is gonna make you give up one more though, because we're gonna add another episode ... kind of wrapping things up."
Yes, I feel a little bit badly about giving $$ to Jeff Lowe to record this cameo for @ahornbrook (but maybe he can use for his robust legal defense, which I support)
BUT
