Season 73 Review:
The musical numbers, always the highlight of the Tonys and designed to sell as many tickets as possible, were a bust on the telecast. ... As for Corden, this was not his finest hour. The opening number, written especially for the telecast, was a dud, and he seemed a bit tired throughout the evening.

Season 73 Review:
[Host James Corden's] opening number, which began with the “Late Late Show” host sitting on a couch, was premised on the idea that there is simply too much good TV on nowadays, before making a muddled argument that theater is better than TV because it is actually live. ... Corden just kept coming around, with the notion of the excitement around live theater de-emphasized each time by the staleness of his material. ... Little on the broadcast carried the charge of a performance coherent from beginning to end, one designed to tell a story rather than simply cow the audience into submission.
