For Ricky Gervais' sake, let's all hope Jennifer Garner was too busy to watch the Golden Globes Sunday night, because Sydney Bristow kicks ass and takes names. 

Gervais wouldn't be Gervais if he didn't step on the toes of some of the biggest celebrities in the game, and on Sunday, he took a big shot at Ben Affleck.

Affleck and Garner's separation was the shock of the summer, with the "Batman v Superman" star facing allegations of cheating with the couple's nanny. 

Gervais described Affleck's BFFL Matt Damon as "The only person Ben Affleck hasn't been unfaithful to," before the "Bourne Identity" actor introduced his film "The Martian," which was nominated for Best Picture, Comedy or Musical.

One tweeter remembered that Garner and Gervais shared the screen for 2009's "The Invention of Lying."
