It's on live right now if you don't want to wait for tonight.

They're starting with the Parade of Nations first. It isn't in the stadium but on boats. It sucks to be honest.

And then they choose an American singer. Bold choices all around.

The boats for the athlete parade. Terrible.

Splitting the parade with creative. Terrible.

Lady Gaga? WTF? She’s not even close to being French.

Lady Gaga? The French don't have any native talent they can showcase?

This, so far, might be the worst Opening Ceremony ever. This is comically bad.

Should've brought this guy in for some robot fighting instead.

Not waiting til nightfall was a bad choice, too.

If the US doesn't come in on an aircraft carrier I will be disappointed.

I came here to say this.

Also:

That Lady Gaga bit was painful.

Boats in shite filled water, mixing performances with the parade, parade in the daytime with hardly anyone there, an American singing in French. This disaster has it all.

Yeah. This is just almost impossible to telecast and keep up with all the usual elements we're used to. Performers, history, crowd involvement, athletes... it's a mess.
