    A Christmas Story Live aired Sunday night, and while the musical version of everyone's favorite beloved Christmas movie was packed with nostalgia and cozy vibes, not everyone was here for it. And when the internet is collectively not here for something, Twitter is often at its best self (which says a lot considering Twitter is often a garbage fire). Here, the most amusing and savage reactions to A Christmas Story Live:

    I can’t help but feel like #AChristmasStoryLive is Hollywood’s way of getting back at the country for voting for Trump.December 18, 2017

    Imagine Matthew Broderick suddenly appearing in various rooms of your home to narrate your life. #AChristmasStoryLiveDecember 18, 2017

    looked back in on #AChristmasStoryLive … pic.twitter.com/hlak6ucgQ7December 18, 2017

    I greatly enjoy that Matthew Broderick is just wandering into scenes, talking to the camera, looking in windows. #AChristmasStoryLiveDecember 18, 2017

    #AChristmasStoryLive I’m Catholic and haven’t been to confession in over 30 years...so I’m going to watch this to the end. I’m sure God will accept this as my penanceDecember 18, 2017

    #AChristmasStoryLive was my date alone with my hot pocket but now I'm going to get drunk to forget the horror of terrible singing!December 18, 2017

    Matthew Broderick’s one side bang is creeping me the hell out. #ChristmasStoryLiveDecember 18, 2017

    A Christmas Story live is proof positive that pot is legal in California #AChristmasStoryLiveDecember 18, 2017

    Call me old-fashioned, but I like my narrator to be just a big, booming voice and not Matthew Broderick lurking in the corner of every scene. #AChristmasStoryLiveDecember 18, 2017

    To be fair, some people really liked the musical—and were especially on board with Ana Gasteyer's fabulous Hanukkah song, which we can all agree was a welcome addition:

    Sorry but if you’re not appreciating how amazing #AChristmasStoryLive is, you’re uncultured SWINEDecember 18, 2017

    we as a people literally don't deserve Ana Gasteyer #AChristmasStoryLiveDecember 18, 2017
