While Simpson was full of praise for the show, the former running back seemed convinced that Carole Baskin fed her husband to one of her tigers. "I watched about six episodes of this show and I couldn't believe what I was looking at. White people! What's with you and wild animals? Leave them animals alone!", said OJ Simpson.
