Netflix's Season 4 Love Is Blind live reunion was off to a rocky start on Sunday after the live stream didn't start on time and fans were greeted with error messages.

The reunion was scheduled to start at 8 p.m. ET and an hour and a half later later fans were still waiting and sounding off on Twitter over the technical issues.

The Season 4 finale, which dropped on Friday, showed three couples say "I do" at the altar and one couple call it off.

The Netflix reunion promised to spill a lot of tea on April 16 as fans eagerly awaited to see where the contestants were at a year after filming and so that they could finally address some of the most dramatic things to happen throughout the season.

Co-host Vanessa Lachey posted an Instagram clip during the delay to reassure fans the cast was ready to answer questions from fans as they waited for the tech issues to be dealt with.

"Apparently we broke the internet! Thank you guys so much for tuning in and being patient! ❤️ We’re here and READY!" she captioned the video.

LIB fans who tried to log on to watch the live stream on Sunday were met with technical issues and they took to social media to share their frustration over the delay.

One Twitter user posted a pic of Tiffany Pennywell sleeping in the pods and wrote, "live view of the Netflix staffer who was supposed to press 'play.'"

One tweet showed a clip from The Office and the workers scrambling around, implying what that's what the Netflix headquarters looked like.

Another Twitter user tweeted the Netflix CEO was probably firing the live reunion producer over the issue.

Another person tweeted their food was getting cold while they were waiting for the stream to load.

Even American politician Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez tweeted suggesting someone should call Lucia the seamstress to fix the issue.

One Twitter user pointed out that Succession was starting soon so the reunion's window was "closing."

Netflix did tweet out a few updates during the ordeal, the first saying that the reunion would be 15 minutes late.

In their follow-up tweet, they posted a photo of Irina Solomonova and the caption, "Promise Love Is Blind LIVE will be worth the wait."

While the Twitter reaction is hilarious, hopefully Netflix will have it ready to go soon so fans can finally get the tea they have been patiently waiting for!
