Following a night at the 2021 MTV TV and Movie Awards where MTV’s corporate parent Viacom went home winless (unless you count Paramount’s “Coming 2 America” which they sold to Amazon), the media conglomerate dominated its inaugural follow up, the MTV Movie and TV Awards: Unscripted. Viacom took six awards including three for Best Competition Series winner “RuPaul’s Drag Race.” Best Docu-Reality Show went to another MTV franchise, “Jersey Shore Family Vacation.”
