Maybe I am jaded from the past several years, but is anyone else nervous about all of our athletes herded onto a very targetable boat floating down a river with little opportunity to flee if things go south?

Opening was the soccer player Zidane getting stuck on the subway with the Olympic torch and then three kids dressed like the Stranger Things characters taking the torch through the catacombs down to the Seine. Just kinda odd.
Now the countries are all on a bunch of boats floating down the Seine.

Lady Gaga just sang something wearing corset underpanties with some furry pompom types.
Had to mute it two minutes into Lady Gaga
But we did catch a glimpse of Bryce Hoppel so that’s encouraging.
It is all so contrived - fake energy, smiling etc. Not a fan so far.
Some dangerous looking Skeletor looking guy is jumping across rooftops. Hopefully he is not an arsonist.
Didn't know Piper Perri qualified for Botswana

More than Kelly Clarkson. I'd rather listen to the D-OH-Double-Gee.
Kelly Clarkson needs to chill. Her constant spazzing out is a bit much.
Do you guys have a woman describing what's happening at all times? (e.g. "A ballet dancer dances on a podium...") Seems like an accessibility thing for blind people, but how do I turn it off for myself?
Let's get back to the boats...

She’s a much better singer than Taylor Swift.

Ok, it started out slow but is getting cooler and cooler. Some pretty spectacular scenes.
That Skeletor guy has tireless Superman energy. Not sure how much is live versus recorded.
Very creative, showcasing the essence of France. I love it!! Feel sorry for LA28...
Truthfully, so far I am really bored. Going to give it 15 minutes to improve.

A forehead like the great wall of china, steroid use, and a few old sexual assault accusations.
Holy crap.... Marie Antoinette....headless.
