Louis Theroux: America's Most Dangerous Pets

[Halb]

Another classic from Louis I am hoping, with his laid back charm.
Sunday 9pm.

I feel confident that he will be talking down to/insulting morons without them realising it.........

Cheers, i'll be watching. Timely in light of that suicidal guy in Ohio.

Watching, but expecting this to be a less interesting subject matter than Louis' usual fare.

Annoying music.

+ 1 and combined with the real possibility of see distressed or maltreated animals which I cannot stand.

The guy looks like a freaky red-kneck, and in many ways I suppose he is.

But he's coming across much better than most people who feature in Theroux's shows.

Americans are so painfully stupid...poor animals.

These people are properly deluded.

[FourWheelDrift]

Wasn't there a stat that said there are more privately held Tigers in the USA than there are left wild anywhere in the world?

[spike ST500]

Yep.

It's quite amazing the stupid things he can get the Americans to say and do. All of them, so far, have seemed unable to empathise with caged wild animals, and not able to see that they are very different from pets.

Quoting myself here.

Figures are around 3,200 Tigers left in the wild, in 2005 the number of Tigers held privately in the USA was over 4,000 (similar figure for China). With a figure of 12,000 in total in private collections as pets. No idea of Zoo numbers (more searching).

not much of an expert, "its a tiger"

Lost a leg testing a friends amusement ride they built.

About sums it up
