Last night the live staging of the Rodgers and Hammerstein classic The Sound of Music starring Carrie Underwood made its debut on NBC. Twitter was a abuzz with reactions to the musical (hashtag SOML) and we decided to share the most hilarious ones with you, our adoring audience.

Two things that are totally unforgivable. Being a Nazi. And those shorts. #SoundofMusic #SOML

My favorite part of The Sound of Music was when Elsa fell down that pit trying to reach for the Holy Grail.
