'Steve Harvey looks like a Batman villain,' one viewer tweeted along with a picture of Harvey on the show.

Temperatures dipped well below freezing on Sunday night in the Big Apple with revelers struggling to keep warm as they waited for the ball to drop at midnight.

But even the need to bundle up against the penetrating cold did not excuse Harvey's fashion choices, according to the Twitterverse.

'Is it just me or did #SteveHarvey dress up like Spy Vs. Spy for New Years?' another tweeted.
