RTE viewers took to Twitter to react to the Late Late Toy show opening number everyone had been waiting for.
Ryan Tubridy made a grand entrance to the tune of 'Hakuna Matata' much to the delight of viewers at home.
However, the RTE star's outfit got some laughs on social media within the first few moments of the show's opening.
Tubridy was dressed as Timon, the infamous meerkat from Disney's The Lion King.
It'll be the 13th year that Tubridy will be hosting the Toy Show and it's set to be a colourful extravaganza after what have been a dark 18 months.
Here's what the viewers at home had to say:
"Mufasa didn’t die for this… #LateLateToyShow"
"Brave opening outfit from Tubbs #LateLateToyShow"
"Carlow getting the shoutout on #LateLateToyShow making me proud as ever to be a Carlovian."
"RYAN IS MEANT TO BE TIMON?!?"
In previous iterations of the Toy Show, Tubridy has dressed up as Baloo from The Jungle Book and Sebastian from The Little Mermaid, to name but a few.
Tubridy told RTE Radio 1 listeners that tonight's show would bring lots of joy.
He said: "You see, what we are doing with the Toy Show this year is, we get the sense... last year there was a sort of darkness in the air, and yet you had to make the colour shine through."
