Did it live up to the weeks worth of hype?
Smash debuted on NBC last night, taking fans behind the scenes of Marilyn the Musical and introducing us to a number of interesting characters and storylines, as well as a couple original songs that are available via our Smash music section.
What did you think of the premiere? Are you on Team Ivy or Team Karen? Members of either side won't have a lot of time to debate because - SPOILER ALERT! - Derek, Julia and company will decide on their lead at the conclusion of episode two.
Watch the official preview for this installment now, as both aspiring stars are calling back in to audition and the pressure continues to mount...
