23 Reactions To "The Little Mermaid Live" That Made Me Laugh Out Loud

We NEED to talk about that Flounder puppet.

Last night, life was the bubbles with Disney's The Little Mermaid Live which was a part live-action, part animated film spectacular featuring solid performances, incredible costumes, and — of course — plenty of moments to tweet about.

Like, Shaggy (yes, of "It Wasn't Me" fame) decided that a red crab costume just WASN'T HIM, and opted for an all-leather look instead…

…this message appeared onscreen AS "Part of Your World" began…

…and this Flounder puppet emerged from my darkest nightmares.

But I'm getting ahead of myself. Here are some of the best jokes about the ~under the sea~ special:

1.

To this dog: you’re doing amazing, sweetie. #TheLittleMermaidLive

Ariel is the OG clown. She literally gave up her voice, friends, family, whozits and whatzits for a boy she saw passing by on a boat. 🤡 #TheLittleMermaidLive

The whole costume budget for #TheLittleMermaidLive went towards Queen Latifah’s Ursula and I’m 1000% okay with that.
