If you see jokes and references on Facebook, Instagram or Twitter about how "Carole totally fed her husband to tigers" or "My boss takes management lessons from Joe Exotic", people are talking about the Netflix documentary series Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem And Madness.

Since it launched on the streaming service on March 20, viewers have been thrilled by a true story that has everything: big cats, a revenge murder plot, assault rifles, American-style polygamy and, most of all, a cast of characters to whom the word "flamboyant" fails to do justice.
