JWST has been revolutionizing the study of galaxies in the early Universe and the formation of supermassive black holes within them. In my talk I aim to summarize a short history of three years of scientific discovery of an abundant population of broad line sources (the so-called Little Red Dots) that has been a widely debated topic in the field. I will present why there has been so much debate about these objects and show how the latest data from JWST as well as ground-based telescopes are continuing to surprise the community, with spectra that appear remarkably “stellar” hinting at exotic supermassive black hole formation scenarios. I will discuss various recent (conflicting) interpretations of these sources and I sketch some of the next steps ahead.
