Here's how the MTV Movie & TV Awards went down WITHOUT host or red carpet -- as Tom Cruise accepted his award mid-air inside a fighter jet, and Drew Barrymore still popped up as Skipper from Barbie and Josie Grossie (via toofab)
Sometimes, the best thing to do is just call it. That didn't happen with the"MTV Movie & TV Awards," as the production made last-minute changes almost up to the point of air -- and the result was even messier than expected.
The launch of the ongoing Writers Guild of America strike is what triggered this change. Almost immediately, Drew Barrymore stepped down as host in solidarity with the WGA union, though she said she'd return next year. From there, the show quickly dumped its red carpet and ultimately its live broadcast.
By the time it reached the air, it was little more than a clips show with an awkward narrator announcing the categories and winners spliced throughout a slew of"Flashback" moments ... to remind us when this show used to be fun!
