If you have yet to watch the Tiger King I implore you to close this article and go rev up your Netflix for a really wild ride. For those of you who have I bring you my power rankings of the top ten dirtbags in this whole crazy documentary and how they rank from dirtbag to dirtbaggiest.

10. Rick Kirkham – Usually the reality tv producers are the slimiest of the slimy but that’s how depraved the people on this show are. Rick was out to exploit Joe Exotic until the wild animal he was trying to exploit possibly blew up all of his investment. Serves him absolutely right for trying to make a buck off of someone who clearly needed help. Instead Rick would have them roll the cameras and egg Joe on to crazier stuff.

9. Tim Stark – Not on the screen for long, Tim’s dirtbagginess comes from his excitement over taking Joe Exotic’s zoo and reassembling it with Jeff Lowe for his own personal gain.

8. Lauren Lowe – For those who need a refresher, Lauren is the wife of a Jeff Lowe. I honestly don’t know how this woman lives with herself. Her self esteem must be so low to allow the things her husband does and says in front of her. My mind was absolutely blown when they were choosing a nanny and she was ok with him picking one on how much he wanted to have sex with her. “Just make sure she speaks Spanish so the kid is bilingual.” Being excited to bring another woman around that man is absolutely disgusting.

7. Howard Baskin – I wanted to punch him in the face when he said “It’s a champagne and Brie type of evening.” after the announcement of Joe Exotic being locked away.
6. Jeff Garretson – He may love his lemur but this dudes an absolute snake. The “informant” really was only looking to cover his own ass but in reality he gave others the tools to destroy another man’s life.

5. Joe Exotic – Joe really would’ve fit right in the role of Joe Dirt. He is an absolute dirtbag. From grooming young 19 year olds and pushing them into relationships while holding drugs over their heads to being the cause of his own demise. His mistreatment of animals and his own employees is absolutely unforgivable but I do feel the pressures of outside forces caused that more than anything else. He took advantage of many people around him most notably his parents. Then he bedded the monster that caused his ultimate incarceration and for that I won’t give him any sympathy.

4. Doc Antle – It disturbs me that a man who is very likely euthanizing tigers because they are “too old” and a burden to feed is only coming in at number 4 on this list. He clearly is the straight version of Joe Exotic and how he keeps that many women ok with that lifestyle is beyond me. The girl who escaped described my biggest nightmare: Cockroaches everywhere while being paid $100 a week for 14 hours of heavy labor. He’s not a god or lord despite whatever the hell he thinks.

3. Carole Baskin – The elephant in the room is her missing husband but I won’t even go there. Let’s talk about the fact she never had a service for the man but meanwhile enjoys all his money. Her mistreatment of his daughters and the obvious disdain his secretary has for her tells you everything. But still it’s her way of taking advantage of her donations and different color shirt army in order to reap the rewards of and keep her sanctuary moving. Make no mistake, she helped drive Joe Exotic to the abuse of animals. His animal’s welfare dropped as her lawyers sucked him dry. To put his parents on the street. Disgusting. The thing that bothers me most is she literally wants to be the only one to own tigers and that’s why she is out to destroy all the others. Selfish

2. Allen Glover – I had Allen as low as 10 and as high as this because he’s not the brightest tool in the shed but I ultimately decided to keep him here. He hated Joe and was thirsty to cause his downfall. The guy went on about how he didn’t respect him and hated him and I have no doubt he took the money and ran to South Carolina because there was no murder for hire.

1. Jeff Lowe – Spouse abusing, tiger neglecting con man. This man stole Joe Exotic’s zoo and then got him locked up so he could deflect the heat off his own ass. I have no doubt that he instructed Joe to give his long time employee $3000 so he could go home. It’s amazing how fast he pissed off his second tiger zoo owning partner. This guy found a sucker, then destroyed the mans life. I really wouldn’t be surprised to find out if Carole and he linked up and made this murder for hire story up and $$$ was exchanged. Disgusting.
