Netflix Drops Surprise Tiger King Follow-up, The Tiger King and I

With nowhere to go and nothing to do, the nation has fallen under the spell of Netflix's Tiger King. (Props to Primetimer's Sarah D. Bunting for calling it days before the docuseries was even released). Two weeks in, Tiger King already one of the streamer's most watched series ever, spawning a FOX primetime special next week, an upcoming Discovery special, and a new bonus "after show" on Neflix today.

Also today: the creator/producer of The League pivots from football to beer in the new comedy Brews Brothers, the midseason return of Magnum P.I., and Amazon brings its recent Cannes jury prize-winning theatrical release home. Here's what's new and noteworthy on TV this Friday:
