The ITV show saw a host of cute kids bringing their amazing talents to show Dawn and the audience with no judges and no prizes.
But viewers weren't impressed by the show, which featured an eight-year-old piano prodigy, an adorable dancing duo and a Filipino viral star.
People at home flocked to social media to blast the "uncomfortable" show, with one simply saying: "10 minutes in and this could be the worst TV programme I've ever seen."
Another commented: "What's happened to @ITV? So many s**t programmes suddenly."

"I've got two choices. Jab my eyes with a fork, or watch the new ITV show Little Big Shots. I've made my mind up," one person wrote, attaching an image of a fork.
Some were furious at the show appearing to pressure children into showing phenomenal talent at an early age.
One person said: "Hate #littlebigshots. People develop and age at different rates. Promotes and ridicules those who shine early. Uncomfortable viewing."

But Strictly Come Dancing star Kristina Rihanoff loved the show
Although others liked the programme, they criticised its scheduling, pointing out that it was the perfect family show but that its 8pm slot was too late for children to be up watching TV.
Some people, however, loved Little Big Shots, with one person praising Dawn's adorable new gig, saying: "Amazed by these talented kids on Little Big Shots, brilliant choice of presenter too."
Even former Strictly Come Dancing professional Kristina Rihanoff took to Twitter to say: "What an incredible show @LilBigShotsUK! Loved every second of it and @Dawn_French is just the best presenter ever!"
Little Big Shots returns next Wednesday at 8pm on ITV.
