Overall, Netflix won eight awards, also picking up trophies for “Jeffrey Epstein: Filthy Rich” (crime/justice series), “Somebody Feed Phil” (travel/adventure series), “Love Is Blind” (relationship show), as well as the peer-voted award for outstanding achievement in nonfiction programming by a network or streaming platform.

Other networks with multiple wins were ABC and Bravo, with two each. “Survivor” host and executive producer Jeff Probst was awarded this year’s Critics Choice Real TV Impact Award, “for his ongoing contributions to the unscripted television industry.”

The Critics Choice Association (CCA) and nonfiction producers’ organization NPACT jointly administer the awards, and announced the winners on Monday morning. The CCA and NPACT scrapped an in-person ceremony this year due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

The honorees for the two peer-voted awards (outstanding achievement in nonfiction programming by a network or streaming platform and outstanding achievement in nonfiction production) were selected by the members of NPACT.
