“I feel like no one was in charge of the Golden Globes and Jo Koy just walked in and said ‘I’m the host’ and no one bothered to check if that was correct,” one fan wrote.
Koy joked that he was a last-minute addition to the show. It’s safe to say his lack of preparation was noticed by viewers watching at home.

Another viewer pointed out how Koy started riffing after realizing his monologue wasn’t going well.
“Golden Globes host Jo Koy went off script after one of his jokes backfired: ‘I got the gig 10 days ago!’ Do you want a perfect monologue? Yo, shut up. You are kidding, right? Decelerate. I wrote some of these and they’re the ones you’re laughing at.’”

An X (formerly Twitter) user pointed out that Ko didn’t try very hard with her Barbie joke.
“The awkward silence over Jo Koy’s Barbie jokes… She told clever jokes about the other nominees and all she had about Barbie was “big breasts.”
