Ben Affleck has been slammed by viewers on social media after comparing celebrities who 'share the same face'.
The Greatest Roast of All Time: Tom Brady, which is part of the Netflix Is a Joke Fest, took place on Sunday (5 May) evening.
Held at the Kia Forum in Los Angeles, the comedy show was broadcasted live on the popular streaming platform.
However, viewers that tuned in over the weekend blasted Affleck's monologue as he was a thrown in as a surprise comic.

Many fans have since flocked to social media to suggest that Affleck should stick to acting, partly in thanks to his awkward jokes.
However, it wasn't just the jokes that eagle-eyed viewers noticed while watching the Netflix show.
Taking on X, formerly known as Twitter, one person penned: "Next time get somebody else to do it don't ever invite Ben Affleck."
A second added: "Oh my God Ben Affleck what the f**k was that,' while a third remarked: "Ben Affleck is the worst performance of the night by far."
Meanwhile, another X user dubbed the cameo as 'cringeworthy'.
And to be honest, even the actor wasn't a fan of his own jokes, saying he'll probably 'never work again' after taking to the stage in Hollywood.
Affleck is coming off his Dunkin' Donuts Super Bowl commercial featuring Brady - something which was praised by fans.
However, last night was the polar opposite - but what exactly did he say?
Well, Affleck's on-stage cameo featured a lot of awkward jokes and a lengthy rants about social media trolls.
UNILAD has reached out to Affleck's representatives for comment.
Elsewhere at Netflix's The Greatest Roast of All Time, Kim Kardashian was left unimpressed after Brady took aim at Kanye.
During her brief appearance, Kardashian attempted to give Brady a good roasting and so naturally, Brady responded in true Brady style.
As Kardashian sat in the audience recovering from having been booed earlier in the show, Brady took to the mic to reflect on how the reality star was 'terrified to be here tonight'.
He continued: "Not because of this but because her kids are at home with their dad."
The camera then panned to Kardashian's face - with the Skims founder looking fairly unamused, opening her mouth briefly but her face quickly returning to a tight smile.
She was then seen starring back at Brady, shaking her head and blinking slowly as the rest of the audience erupted into laughter.
One of many awkward moments throughout the showing.
