Calling All "Tiger King" And "Game Of Thrones" Fans – You're Going To Want To See This

🚨Spoilers🚨 I had a Game of Thrones sized hole in my heart, and Tiger King filled it.

Ok... just hear me out on this.

1. First of all, Joe Exotic literally sits on a throne

Netflix / HBO

That's pretty self explanatory, but it makes even more sense when you think about all the big cat people (who knew that was even a thing?) who want to be the biggest and baddest of them all. It's almost like they're fighting for the crown. Speaking of crowns...

2. Carole Baskin is basically Cersei Lannister

Netflix / HBO

You start Tiger King thinking that Carole Baskin has it all together, but then a few episodes later, we learn that there are allegations against her saying that she may have been involved in the disappearance of her first husband. Sound familiar? They're both blonde, ruthless, and love rocking a crown. You may love to hate them both, but you have to admire their absolute dedication to wanting to destroy their enemies.

3. There are SO MANY storylines to keep up with

Netflix / HBO

If you think this is a documentary about tigers, think again. There are new characters every episode – each one more outrageous than the last – who come from all over the country and somehow know all of each other's dirty secrets. The poor tigers really just become a backdrop for all the drama, pettiness, and alleged murder (?!?!?) on the show which bears a striking resemblance to the hundreds of characters and plot-lines on GoT.

4. Some characters have stripes of their own

Netflix / HBO

In GoT, Khal Drogo decorates his body with paint indicative of his khalasar (aka clan). In a very similar fashion, John Finlay from TK does his interviews shirtless to show off his many tattoos which are a sort of social marker in and of themselves!

5. (Alleged) Murder

Netflix / HBO

The alleged murder of Don Lewis? Mario Tabraue (aka the guy Scarface was supposedly modeled after) being accused of using a machete to dismember the body of a federal informant? The murder-for-hire plot concocted by Joe Exotic? I mean, there's just so much violence and so little of it to do with tigers. You know who we think the true King of the Seven Kingdoms is? Saff. Speaking of...

6. Missing appendages

Netflix / HBO

Saff was the person who got their arm ripped off by a tiger. As you can see, they bear a slight resemblance to GoT's Jaime Lannister. Well, maybe only from the elbow down but still.

7. Animals that could 100% eat you

Netflix / HBO

Lions and tigers, and... uh, dragons and direwolves, oh my? Both series were filled to the brim with sharp-toothed animals that you certainly wouldn't want to be stuck in a cage with!

8. But also baby animals that are super adorable

Netflix / HBO

I mean, just look at those little faces! I guess both tigers and direwolves have start small before growing up into the giant beasts we all know and love.

9. And lastly, the ending left something to be desired

HBO / Netflix / Via giphy.com

Don't get me wrong, Tiger King is beyond fantastic, but IMO the last few episodes may have focused a bit too much on the whole murder-for-hire plot at the expense of wrapping up the stories of all the other characters we've grown to know and love. How did Barbara "Bala" Fischer (Doc Antle's ex-employee/ex-girlfriend) end up leaving the cult-like T.I.G.E.R.S.? Why did we only get what seemed like five seconds with Mario Tabraue? And for the love of God, can someone PLEASE find out what in the world happened to Don Lewis?! At least Bran didn't become king at the end...

Well, those are all the similarities between Tiger King and Game of Thrones that we found. Did you notice any more? Let us know in the comments!
