CBS All Access suffered an embarrassing outage Sunday, crashing just before Super Bowl LV kicked off.

The streaming service from ViacomCBS Inc. VIAC, +3.80% had touted its Super Bowl livestream as the place to watch the big game for cord-cutters.

But when many subscribers tried to log on to the app Sunday, they received an error message reading: “Uh oh. An error has occurred, but we’re working on fixing it. We’ll be up and running again shortly!”

Viewers were…unhappy.

Luckily for fans, the livestream picked up a couple of minutes into the game, and not much action was missed.
