While James was enthusiastic and clearly delighted in being sat alongside the cast, viewers at home were not impressed.
While some took issue with his questions, which included ‘Were Ross and Rachel on a break?’ and ‘who has the loudest laugh?’, others wondered why he had been chosen over other his fellow late night chat show hosts such as Jimmy Fallon.
Taking to Twitter, one wrote: “Watching the Friends reunion. Oh it’s hosted by James Corden… Sick of him ruining everything.”
Another added: “Ugh, #JamesCorden is insufferable #FriendsReunion.”
A third tweeted: “look i am trying to watch the friends reunion for nostalgia and good memories but james corden is ruining everything.”
A fellow viewer was kinder saying: “No offence to #JamesCorden I think he did fine but @jimmyfallon might’ve done it better I suppose FriendsReunion @FriendsTV.”
Thankfully for James it wasn’t all bad feedback, as one viewer tweeted: “God that Friends reunion was so funny. I almost fell off my sofa! James Corden as well – so funny!”
Another added: “Well done for choosing James Corden.”
