Drakes father reminds me of my father. When I was in middle school I wanted to be a model and actress. My aunt got me an agent we started the process. My father was adamant that I not be left alone for a second. In general he was very protective of us. This man, divorced from my mother who was constantly trying to distance us as much as she could from him, tried to do as much good as he could for us with the little time we had together weekly. He would stand outside of restrooms and wait for us wherever we went, make us wear all matching t-shirts at events, and bought us firefly cellphones to make sure we could always contact him. He was there for us physically and emotionally, taking our phone calls in the middle of his long day of immigrant work hours to sing us to sleep. When I watched The Sound Of Freedom I knew that I could have never ended up abused under my father's watch because he never left us for a second. I was so overcome with emotion and thanks to my father that I called him to tell him how lucky I know I am to have had him protect me. Last night after seeing Drakes father break down in tears I called my father again. So so blessed. I thank God everyday. Father presence is SO important.
Was this copy and pasted? I swear I read this somewhere else.
@@afterhours1969Yup, I posted it twice LOL
You dont even know how much that means to hear that from your child. ❤ im sure your dad feels very blessed to have you as his daughter.
@afterhours1969 The importance of father presence is something I want to spread (even if it make me look a bit silly)
@@afterhours1969 Yup, I posted it twice.
People always talk about “mother’s intuition” but no one believes men’s intuition even exists. No one knows men better than men so when we say someone is sketchy, fucking listen. That’s why we’ll see a girls new bf and pick up that he’s bad news but no, we’re just “crazy” or “overreacting”
Women are absolutely shocking at identifying dangerous men. It’s been scientifically proven they are far worse at this then men are
I usually trust a man who says he doesn't trust another man
@@labhrais6957me too! I’ve never heard anyone say not to trust a man’s intuition. They have some of the best insights on how other men operate
I agree! Dads need more credit. My dad always had just as much of an intuition as my mom when things weren’t right.
My dad literally has the best intuition ever. He was true about everyone in my life. Could see what will come even when I did not believe him. With my mother it was always different, she was abusive towards me and never had a good intention towards me, she loved everyone in my life who did something bad to me…
What hurt me the most was that the Dad specifically asked the mom to not leave him around that pervert alone. Yet, she let him go to his house and have sleep overs. It’s absurd to think he even got a second chance after those terrible things he did. Broke my heart when he talked about how everyone was supporting the abuser and in the letter they blamed him for “tempting” him!!!! Absolutely freaking disgusting the things these children had to experience.
That’s the sick part they turn it on the true victim. Simply existing doesn’t mean tempting! People are sick in the head…
Sounds very common especially when it’s a woman that was SA. I have no idea what’s in ppl brains but I’m glad I don’t think like that. It’s pretty sick
Right just because she didn't want to drive drake around.
She probably knew and didn't even care because she was willing to trade her son for money and fame.
It was the fact Drakes mom just thought he was a homophobe, and might’ve done it to spite Drakes dad acting like a classic ex wife to make mad not knowing who that creeper truly was.
Elijah Wood hated that his mum was always there for every movie, now he appreciates that she was, otherwise he would have fallen victim to this
His mum knew what could happen if he was alone on the set, didn't want that to happen.
7 years ago exposing them at that!! So why Dan and Brian are not in prison? 2024 and now it's okay to speak out? Something is not adding up, makes you wonder if the Elites are about to do something to all of us......
It's no wonder why Jeanette McCurdy entitled her book "I'm glad my mom died".
stage parents are the worst!
Her mother was also quite neglectful when she was a child and Jeanette didn’t finally admit it to herself until later in life
Goddamn
I read that book, and I am glad that she is doing better
@@thatvalensteingirl real
This is just disgusting, these poor kids gave up their childhoods to make ours more entertaining.
And to think it’s still happening
God bless you in the name of Jesus Christ, who is the name above all names & the only way to Heaven❤
@@MeadowsMiniFarm it is. Right now the current kids on the program is doing exactly same thing till they decide to open up the issues for the next 10+ years from now. Plus there's another documentary called "An Open Secret" by Amy J. Berg that came out in 2014. History repeat itself.
Hollywood is the modern day gladiatorial ring. We see only the entertainment, but to them it's just blood and dead innocence.
The mother is disgusting for letting this happen to her son, did everything in her power to keep Drake away from his father who’s could help him, then comes out saying she was “as much of a victim as Drake was”.
Father's intuition is vastly underappreciated. It's heartbreaking
Part of the de-masculinization and demonizing of men from cultural Marxism in America. Like third wave feminism which is just blatant misandry. Strong, masculine men protect what's important to them. Weak, toxically un-masculine men not only fail to protect anything, but are much more likely to hurt others instead. Creating a self perpetuating "blame men" for the actions of the ones that fell victim to the feminizing propaganda. The one sided family and divorce courts. The schools that punish any masculinity in men. The society that shows most fathers in TV and movies as worthless deadbeats or complete morons. It's disgusting. It breeds this wicked environment. Wickedness that seeps in when God is absent. We follow eerily similar footsteps to Israel as they fell away from God in Biblical times. Down to the same molten images; metal statues that represent sin and the worship of spirits, aka demons.
This particular event would likely be closest linked to 2 particular spirits: Ba'al who pulls away from God with promises of riches, wealth, preying on greed. And Ashtaroth, who destroys the sanctity of marriage, sex, gender, and is responsible for nearly all immorality linked to them, preying on lust and the empty void inside all of us where only God can healthily reside and furthering the disconnect after Ba'al's arrival. Followed after by Molech.
Feel free to ignore me if you think I'm coo coo for coco puffs :D
His mom should actually be charged. She was a negligent parent, for real. I mean seriously? Letting a stranger be with their kid? 🤦 I mean at least have an aunt or uncle at the very least watch over her kid, but no. She allowed her son to go on tour, go to disneyland, and have multiple sleepovers? I mean just there it's already weird. Heck I wouldn't even sleep over with a friend almost everyday, at most once or only if ever I don't have a choice 🤦 What a bad mom
But girlboss
Even the mom of Drake’s girlfriend KNEW something was not right with the constants phone calls.
That’s the most annoying part about this. She let her some be molested. I don’t think it is a coincidence that she wasn’t involved in this…
and they looked like pedos. i could have taken one look at dan and known not to leave my kid around him
She was likely raking in a lot of profit off of Drake’s career, turned a blind eye as long as she was making cash.
Child acting is a scary business there’s a reason why so many of them end up messed up
Acting in general is disgusting these days nothing but softcore corn
Kids need to be kids is the main problem that would always be there too. Regardless whether this weird junk was going on. When they're teens you start helping them grow up, but even then those teen actors have a warped setup that isn't teen
It makes me wonder how very few end up not messed up
I’m thinking more and more that shows and movies with child protagonists should all just be animated.
Keep the poor kids out of hollyweird altogether.
Wholesome fact. The child actors for Bingo and Bluey in the Australian kids show “Bluey” have been kept anonymous for their safety. I find this fact such a breath of fresh air.
It’s interesting that even in the early 2000’s, people were still accusing others of being “homophobic” whenever they called out someone’s creepy and inappropriate behavior.
You must be young.
Identity politics and political correctness has always existed
Identity politics = Tribalism
Political correctness = catering to female sensitiveness and conflict aversion
Yes, that surprised me also. Interesting that people reacted in a manner like that back then (obviously it's standard today)
most child predators are straight, usually married an with a family.
I'm surprised as well I thought these kinds of unnecessary allegations to prevent people calling out general abuse were a very recent issue and to now it has lasted this long is heartbreaking
As a male victim of sexual assault (twice) this was extremely triggering but powerful to me. I feel so much sympathy for Drake Bell and all the victims and their parents who went through the shit of these awful people.
God bless you 🤍
Sorry that this happened to you my guy. You are proof that the sexual assault thing does not only happen to girls but guys too.
I hope you have recovered and got the help you needed
@@bkopgamerit happens more often to males than it does females actually. But of course, perpetrated by another male.
So sorry for what happened to you. ❤
What's concerning is that these are just the ones that got caught.
Theres sp much worse happening in hollywood and our government. This is just the tip of the iceburg.
Imagine being a mother who not only ignores the warnings your ex husband was giving you but hand delivers your son to his abuser on multiple occasions. I'm glad I had a real mother.
Also, how can you not tell your child's father what happened so that he could be there by his son in court. This lady sucks. Sorry to Drake but seriously what a terrible person.
Agreed. She (hopefully) might feel guilty now and regret her decisions, but there are no defending them. She failed him.
She probably didn't want to admit that she was wrong
The most disgusting part is that all these pedos have their little club and protect eachother! (Often referred to as pizza gate) The fact that his Disney friends hired him to yet again work in children's tv after he only got *16 months* in prison for child molestation is corrupt and disturbing! Put these men in jail for life!!!!
I wish all the child stars well and hope they're doing okay, especially Amanda Bynes, Drake Bell, Brandi, Alexa Nicholas, Jennette McCurdy and everyone else who went through hell!
Friend, Dan Schneider has been with Nick since Goodburger. The sheer AMOUNT of dirt he must have on SO many people. Dan can never go down because he has the goods on too many who would go down with him. I don't think people appreciate just HOW connected he is.
@@Eldritchinator I agree
It sucks justice is never served when it comes to these people.
What’s twisted is that the mother did not bother to tell his father himself. She was proven wrong, but still selfish. His father could have helped him more if she just let go of her pride.
You're asking a woman to be logicial which is not possible
@@SD-mi2vc not all women will agree though. Especially mothers who cared more for their child’s welfare above anything else.
@@MadeByChinkee you be surprised. Women dont care.
Sounds like my mom. Some are just so engulfed in themselves… so self centered. They can’t put anyone, NOT EVEN THEIR OWN CHILDREN, before themselves 😢
@@MadeByChinkeecap
It’s heartbreaking that some parents push their child into this and expose them to the horrific abuse often associated with "child stardom", yet only 15% of the child's earnings is mandated to be set aside for their benefit - the rest can be spent by the parents.
Look at your favorite family Vlog channels, the Kardashians etc.
No it’s heartbreaking that our society hates men. How many more stories have to come out before the courts stop blindly saying “no child should be separated from their mother, but the father be damned”. This all could’ve easily been avoided the father had a say in his child’s life
So they can make money but not have to work for it. Most child stars have trauma. It's just like Tik-Tokers who make their child trans for Tik-Tok revenue
I think the "set" is dans home. The antique radio in the back of booger makes me think so. The zoey 101 episode "the radio" was dans actual radio from his personal collection.
They are essentially pimps
Drake’s dad made me cry so much during this documentary. His heartbreak and his love for his son is so evident.
Ok well then why didn’t he fight harder
@@Kwildcat13Victim blaming scum. 😅
@@Kwildcat13are u fucking serious?
@@Kwildcat13and then go to jail after he loses custody over Drake?
Drakes dad utterly shattered my heart, he tried everything in his power.
The part that really struck me is that guy worked YEARS to get to Drake. Bidded his time for YEARS... took out the threat of the father, built trust with the mother.. took over drakes career, school, life...
The horrifying thing is pedophiles do this on the regular. This is such a common strategy-isolate the kids from their parents. They will go to great manipulative lengths to do it.
Parents: don't push your kids to be child actors. Not in this industry and without supervision. It's insane
As a mother WTF is wrong with some of these 'parents ?' Why you ever leave your kids alone with strangers or adults.
I’m a mother of an infant boy and I’m thinking the same thing
Some people shouldn’t have kids that’s evident
I feel like it's pretty obvious; greed, money
It's disgusting to see how children were exploited and the consequences they had to endure. It's tragic and heartbreaking. I hope videos like this raise awareness and bring about changes to protect children in the industry.
And there was Allison Mack who played Chole Sullivan in the hit series "Smallville". Allison was arrested then incarcerated on charges of sex-trafficking for a cult named NXIVM, a cult she belonged to and was very much a part of personally. Such a wholesome-appearing series like Smallville and there was "Chole Sullivan" right in the middle of it.
Cults to conciousness has videos about NXIVM
the interesting thing about the Smallville production is Nick and Paramount's current CEO is Brian Robbins, he was part of a production company called Tollin/Robbins Productions that was not only involved with Smallville BUT also various Nickelodeon shows such as All That, Kenan and Kel, The Amanda Show and even Cousin Skeeter.
I'm not going to fault either of them for what happened since we don't know how active they were when it came to the sets but IF they knew anything about this meaning the toxic Dan environments then they should be held accountable as well.
Damn...
There’s no evidence that she was sex trafficking during Smallville days.. I don’t think she’s innocent, but she was also brainwashed by Keith Reniere, that’s why these cases are so difficult, people who are groomer end up grooming
I don’t think I’ll ever get over Allison Mack’s involvement with NXIVM. I hear she has woken up and wants to make amends with all the women and men that were a part of NXIVM. I hope that’s true.
“Oh he’s just a sweet guy with pictures, paintings, autographs of and from John Wayne Gacy” 🤦🏾♂️ you can’t make this up 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
THAT PART
This part made me think if he ever killed a young boy after everything he did I wouldn't doubt it
The thing is these horrible stories aren't new in Hollywood. Shirley Temple was pumped up with drugs at like 8 years old, and that was decades ago. Dew Barrymore was a coke addict at like 12, that was in the 80's...
I didn't know that about Shirley Temple! How awful. At least she seemed to go on to live a normal adult life.
Judy Garland, too 😢
I’m sorry but Shirley Temple was never pumped with drugs. MGM was notorious for drugging their actors so Judy Garland was but not Shirley. She was at Fox and was extremely protected by her mother. I recommend you read her autobiography Child Star.
@@racheljames7I know I used to watch than with my grandma that’s so sad
I think you mean Judy Garland, not Shirley Temple.
The two Coreys from the 80s are another example.
When people say it’s not the best documentary. My first reaction is, were they even trying to be number one?! 💀
It’s important to highlight the shortcomings so future documentaries have even more opportunities to build and help expand reach and make bigger impacts
Trying to be No. 1 can have very little to do with it. Regardless of the topic or their intent, a shoddy production can still ruin the effect they're going for. There's no need to stop people from critiquing how they produced it so long as those critiques are valid.
I mean, they should have been trying to be number one. We should always be trying to produce the BEST work, never aim to be mediocre.
🎤
It was well put together IMO.
I remember hearing a story years ago about how a karate instructor kidnapped one of his pupils. They found them and the boy admitted to investigators and his parents that the instructor had been sexually abusing him for years. Well, the father had enough and waited for the instructor to be brought back. When they passed the father, he (the father) took out a pistol and killed the instructor.
There was an uproar about the father getting charged. He got a few years in prison, the defense attorney saying that it was a crime of passion.
The Jodi Plauche story
This is heartbreaking. This is why there are so many child stars that go off the deep end later in life, and the fact that this has been normalized by the industry is sickening.
I agree and it’s sad 😔
This. Is. Why. Kids. Need. Fathers!
No, it's why kids need proactive parents. My mum would never have let this happen to me. I would never let this happen to my son. I don't even put photos of my son on fb set as private, my sons father (despite my insistence not to) has public photos of my son on fb, and Instagram, and has used his photos on the dating profile too 🤮
Not all men have the childs best interests at heart
Kids need fathers like Drakes dad. Not all fathers are created equal
Or just parents that look after their kids. Don’t necessarily need a father or a mother just need a parent that actually protect their kids.
Where was his dad ? How come he didn’t fight harder ? Ask yourself why he is taking credit after the fact .. after his son was abused
Absolutely 100% agree.
The adult jokes in kids shows extends well beyond Dan Schneider's shows. Even the cartoons like Ren & Stimpy, Rugrats, Rocko's Modern Life, etc were littered with adult jokes that flew over the head of kids. This wasn't even a Nickelodeon exclusive thing as Cartoon Network shows like Johnny Bravo, Dexter's Laboratory, Powerpuff Girls, etc had adult jokes littered throughout the show. So while Dan is/was a creep, this was unfortunately just how kids shows were written back in the day. So I can't place all the blame of the adult jokes on Schneider as that's what the industry was doing at the time.
I remember some of those shows and a few of them were not meant for young kids. Ren and Stimpy, Johnny Bravo and Powerpuff Girls were supposed to be for the preteen/teen market. They were Hollywoods first attempt at something Anime had already mastered, the Shonen and Shojo. Sailor Moon and Dragonball Z are the audiences they were trying to hit.
True but there’s a difference between cartoon characters acting out these jokes vs. actual kids acting these jokes out.
@@sakunaruful perhaps but it still shouldn't be acceptable when it comes to kids programming no matter what the format is.
The mention of cartoons makes me wonder: When will the peds hiding on sites like Deviantart/Pixiv be exposed and brought down?
Because these freaks make "art" (if you can even call it that) of children involved with fetish material: inflation, feet, drowning, etc.
And if these people are debased enough to draw this stuff... how do you know they aren't involved with the real thing?
@@sakunarufulIf I remember correctly Cartoon Network was marketed towards preteens and teens
As a 34 year old woman, Nickelodeon was and will forever be my childhood. We (as in lots of fans of Nickelodeon) knew of some rumors and how Dan was a creep. To have these things validated and THEN on top of it, confirmed really hurts. We all know what Hollywood is like. It's just heartbreaking to watch and hear these stories. When I watch certain shows now, I see the innuendos, the adult jokes. It's shocking that Dan was allowed to say and put these things in. Dan is a creep. Brian is a p3d0. Things have to change. We need to protect children. I like the Ned's cast. I like their podcast. The jokes were inappropriate and not funny. Devon apologized. And I'm happy he did. Just because these things didn't happen on their set and had their parents there, they should be some sympathetic. I think they used humor because of the uncomfortable nature of everything so I am willing to give them grace. But this entire documentary situation is so sad and my heart breaks for these children
No we didn't know about any of that. I am 31
@ThePeacePlant It was known online. Twitter. Facebook groups. Twitter. Tiktok too. If you watch old episodes of the shows Dan worked on, you see all these things. When Amanda Bynes had a breakdown and Jamie Lynn Spears got pregnant the rumors started.
@@ThePeacePlant you didn't pay attention. rumors everywhere for like the last 15 years. 90's nick was my life.
Fr i never watched Nick cause i was watching Disney. But when i did watch Nick i thought something was just off.
Corey Feldman was black listed from Hollywood for coming out about the SA on child actors. He had been working on a movie about his experience
If only the world listened. However, if it wasn't visible or scarred, then it wasn't abuse. People say Gen X is hateful, I wonder why. 🤔 *sarcasm* See in the 80's if you asked for help from the cops, teachers, your friends parents, they asked what did you do to deserve what you got. The answer to why Gen X are the way we are.
Nobody should ever be blacklisted from Hollywood for talking about SA but perpetrators of SA should be blacklisted from Hollywood. What a backwards world we live in
@@thatvalensteingirl Corey was being threatened, discredited and dismissed...it wasn't about money or attention. Hollywood is a powerful machine and no one was supporting him. If only more people had his guts.
@@silverzip8292
I'm Gen X. Don't lump us all together.
What's going on now is worse.
There are people and the alphabet mafia who are grooming kids openly.
Naked men dancing in the streets in front of minors. Drag shows for kids.
The ones protesting these things are the ones who get arrested.
It's like it's legal to be a ped0 and groomer now.
I wonder what Drake thinks about this stuff.
Or the others.
yeah I don't like the way he treats the women he always has hanging around him.
If you pray, please pray with me for these child actors to heal, and once they've healed, to become absolute warriors against this evil. We also pray that the creeps and those who turned a blind eye get justice and never have the opportunity to hurt another child as long as they live. Thanks and amen.❤
I love this comment. Imma pray for you too and thank God for such nice people.
We might not have the same faith but still. I love this
If god existed wouldn't these things not happen in the first place?
God gave us free will (He didn’t want us to be mindless robots), and unfortunately some people use that free will for evil.
Oops! My previous comment was meant to be a reply to “If god existed wouldn’t these things not happen in the first place?”
@@VolatileHunter2same. Not a Christian but a different religion and I said a prayer for Drake Bell after watching his episode. He deserves peace and happiness and I pray that Brain Peck and all those like him, meet a very painful end.
That docu series was a hard watch. Glad Drake is rebuilding his life. Hope he can stay sober and be able to move on. I’m glad he was able to reconnect with his dad
When I was working in the movie business..a acquaintance whose young son was an aspiring actor asked me for my advice…I told her “never leave him alone”.
Brett: It's disgusting AND disgusting!
I can't say I don't agree with you brett
When i was little and living in OC (just like Drake), my mom had a couple agents come up to her while wed be out shopping about auditioning my brother and me for stuff. It made me so mad that my parents would give a hard no. Good god am i so happy my parents were as firm as they were.
I saw a clip of Drake’s interview on Instagram and my heart broke. My son is 16, I can’t imagine something like that happening to my him. I can’t stand people joking about child abuse, it turns my stomach that people think it’s a funny thing to joke about.
As a kid I was extremely into theater and I auditioned for several big shows and movies. i’m so glad I didn’t get the parts.
Are you single?:
@@LiamColeman-Halla-yq2jl 💀💀💀 this has to be a joke
@@Brooke__Reagan I'm serious. Are you single? That's my question.
@@LiamColeman-Halla-yq2jl lol yeah but how old are u
@@Brooke__Reagan I'm 24.
I was talking to my husband about this, and he said that predators ALWAYS prey on kids with absent/weak parents, or on kids with single moms/absent fathers. I saw this play out in kids around me growing up too. Predators are very predictable. They surround themselves with kids and play the long game. They truly do view children as prey.
I would never have let my children get into acting or modeling. Mess with my kids and they won't find the body. Even now when they are adults I will protect them with everything that I have.
i couldn’t agree more
This just makes me appreciate that the Netflix show Bojack didn’t hire child actors in order that something like this didn’t happen. Also Sarah Lynn’s character on the show was definitely a sad reminder on what the entertainment industry does to children and that it needs to be stop
lol Netflix had Cuties…
@@goldenknightsfanatic yeah Netflix is definitely a mixed bag. Though they didn’t technically made cuties they just distributed it to a wider audience, but still terrible on their part.
I just finished watching it today and I’m absolutely appalled. I understand that parents didn’t want to hinder the kids careers but I cannot fathom how they just handed their children over. Never trust anyone with your children . May God help heal Drake 🙏🙏
and dan s looks like a pedo! he is so obviously off
The fact that he still thought she kept him safe says some really bad things abt drakes mom never telling the dad what happened because he deserved to know everything going on that's is a really messed up situation
Just another reason women shouldn't get full custody on the basis of being "the Mother".
Yeah I think the better parent should be the one who gets full custody
@@mysteryheart53the court doesn’t know how to tell the difference that said , the dad could have stayed near them and fought a lot harder .
He didn’t
Dads are statistically the better parent
@@Kwildcat13 you do know the mother got custody and all rights to drake? The dad legally couldn’t see him ur a pedo defender.
The LGBT community has given SO much cover for these people, rarely speaking out against this sort of thing and in fact encouraging it, such as the San Francisco Gay men's choir song "We'll Convert Your Children".
Yeah, for people who care about the image of their community so much you'd think they'd hunt down these creeps and separate themselves from them but they protect them??? Frustrating
Are u kidding? The LGBTQ is very outspoken against predators. I’m subbed to a gay dude who has covered many vids about child abuse including this one. We can’t scapegoat everything to gay ppl, especially when it’s false claims. Most of the ppl defending these ppl are not random gay ppl but greedy higher ups who don’t care about the safety of children. That’s how these predators still have positions of power. Besides, gays know more than anyone else that sexuality can’t be changed or altered by external factors. This is a completely separate discussion from gay people
This is how they reproduce. The cycle of abuse is exponential in growth.
@@kofuku1660the movement was taken over once same sex marriage was legalized. It no longer advocates for gay people anymore, it advocates for the TQ+ and soon the P part. Sad really but it is what it is.
It’s honestly so sad that all these disgusting men were protected just because they were gay or part of the lgbtq community.
Was definitely hoping you’d make a video on this topic ! Happy to see it
A lot of teachers get arrested for abusing underage students.
Which is concerning because they shouldn’t be doing that to kids
As a, now, 40 year old man; I have to say that THESE were NOT the heydays of Nickelodeon. Those would be the 90's and, possibly, the first decade of the 2000's. With shows like Legends of the Hidden Temple, Are You Afraid of the Dark, Alex Mack, Clarissa Explai s it All, Pete and Pete, Rugrats, Aaah! Real Monsters, the list goes on and on and... All of that is to say, was this going on in those days as well? Nickelodeon was always, obviously ran by adults, marketed as, "For kids, run by kids." I have not yet seen the docu-series but was curious. Thanks for the great content.
As a 40 yr old woman, I totally agree with you. I used to watch Legends of the Hidden Temple on cable TV.
And Keanan and Kel! They were a scream. I'm 38 so I remember those days too. It's awful to think that couldnhave been going on to those kids who gave us such fun and joy.
Dan Schneiders work in Nickelodeon started on All That! In thr 90s. He eventually made Keenan and Kel^ and then Amanda Show, Drake And Josh, and the reign continued.
They all had their problems
Dan Schneider was the creator and one of the abusers on these shows.
This is easily one of the most important documentaries in our lifetime.
The Ned's Declassified cast just released a video on their channel apologizing for their comments.
Totally love Drake's dad and his heart for his son. What a good father. Also so sorry for Drake 😭
The idea that I child could tempt an adult is a terrifying defence. The mental gymnastics to use that phrasing is mind boggling.
It took having kids of my own to see all the wrong in "kid" shows and movies. I just wanted to share things I enjoyed at their age and then quickly realized how it shouldn't have been labeled for kids.
Ned’s just made an entire podcast apologizing for the situation. They hadn’t seen the documentary when they were live and took full responsibility for speaking on it at all before they had watched it.
I usually don’t believe apologizes from celebrities but Daniel cried about it and it seemed really genuine.
I watched it too. They showed genuine remorse for their mistakes.
Saw it before i heard about the problem
I felt the sincerity in their apology
So when I looked up the issue, I do understand why people were angry
Yeah, I also feel like a lot of the comments Bret mentioned are the clips that go viral but if you actually listen to their entire podcast, you can see that they and alot of other kids that were on the Neds declassified show have very fond and good memories about the place. Seems like they were the exception.
@@VG24601 agreed. Hope Brett covers it...
Bs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I just watched this yesterday with my mom. I feel so bad for the kids. No kid should go through that at all.
LOVE YOU SO MUCH
My mom watched this and told me always be aware about who you are with because it’s always the people you think WOULDNT do that to you stay safe
This !!!!
When I watched the documentary, I was upset because everything that was done behind the scenes on these Nickelodeon shows was textbook abusive and predatory behavior.
Child predators actively seek to separate children from their parents, guardians, and other protectors. They create facádes (sorry about spelling) of trustworthiness and do what they can to get close to the children. Then, they pounce and manipulate the child into doing whatever they want them to do.
This is exactly what happened with all three convicted predators.
I think all of our hearts broke when we saw Mr. Bell TELL Drake's mom "Do not let him around Drake. For ANY REASON". And she did anyway. We heard him TRY with whatever authority he was left with, and she was just... careless. 💔 I hope he knows how much he is supported as good father.
My heart broke for drakes dad
I’m glad that conversations like these are becoming more and more common because they’re not necessarily pertinent to just the entertainment industry. I’m sure there are a large number of regular people who know someone that was taken advantage of by a person in a position of power.
I’m so glad u covered this ❤🎉
I finished this the other night, and after I was hoping you were gunna put out a video about it!
These kids sacrificed their childhoods and all chances of having a normal life, to help make millions of other people’s childhoods and lives memorable. I grew up with these shows as a child. I remember as kids, we admired them… a lot of us wanted to BE them, to live a life that seemed really enjoyable, surrounded by people who loved us and many fans, beyond our wildest dreams.
It’s heartbreaking to know what they went through behind the scenes like this, taken advantage of by the people who should be guiding and protecting them. Such awful people behind the scenes. 😢 May they find peace and closure.
In a way, the greedy actions of these bigwigs managed to destroy the childhoods of not just their actors, but also the childhoods of everyone who grew up on these shows, now finding out what‘s been going on for decades.
I get you. We would watch these kids with such joy. It's awful to think that those funny kids with their smiling faces were going through that.
My dad was like this - he was so protective!! But - abuse STILL happened. Don’t let your kids have sleepovers please ❤🙏🏼‼️ it’s always the people you don’t suspect!
Shoot, my mom let me go stay over anywhere as long as I wasn't home.
My parents never let me go to anyone’s house for sleepovers and I found out why later
Watch “Sound of Freedom” …
Love your ad transitions - so smooth and often related to the point / topic you are on. ❤😊
Something I really didn't like about the docuseries was how they wedged in stories like "Dan kinda sorta looked at me weird so I think he cut me from the show because of racism" and "he passed me up for a promotion in favor of a man, such horrible misogyny" right alongside stories of actual child grooming, SA, exploitation, etc.
Sure, getting passed up by a male writer isn't necessarily misogyny-but this documentary had some pretty crucial additional context.
He illegally paid the two female writers half a salary, made sexist jokes disrespecting a woman's ability to write, and sexually harassed them *repeatedly*-then fired one, threatened the other, and finally got the other to quit after singling her out from the male writers and humiliating her.
They were replaced (not refused promotions-replaced) with *inexperienced* male writers who got a *full* salary.
And the racism claims also had context. It wasn't "he looked at me weird." It was "I was ignored, had someone make a racist comment, and my first role was 'drug dealer.'"
It all fits right in with a very important part of the documentary which was the horrible work environment Dan created and what a creep he was toward women.
I get that there are a lot of people who cry wolf, but these were people relaying some very real discrimination-*especially* the women.
A man who respects women does not force them to pretend to be sodomized. That's sickening and traumatic, and it absolutely deserved to be addressed.
I agree. The focus on Dan was completely disproportionate compared to the focus on the literal child molesters. I understand what the other commenter is saying about providing context for the environment, but thr amount of time and focus on it isn't necessary. Grown ass women being treated unfairly pales in comparison to little boys getting molested. The main bad guys in the scenario were homosexual men who were abusing little boys and women (aka the mothers who threw their children to the wolves) so the film makers went "oh but the straight white guy was giving women weird looks. Let's talk about that for a bit longer to balance it out."
I totally agree with you, and also, how he still has the spotlight, when there was nothing that one couldn't find in a 4chan post 15 years ago about the guy, and the other SA criminals are already forgotten...
Ignoring what he did to Ariana just proves how much of a horrible human being you are
I thought the same and wondered why they focused on Dan and all these things he did in comparison to the horrors others like Bryan peck committed on drake
NDAs are void if you cover up illegal activities. Anyone who will make you do something illegal in a contract is void. They can't bring up the paper saying whatever they said can't be used because they signed an NDA.
I wish more people knew this
wow this really should be common knowledge ! This could actually save so many lives !
So many people don't know this.
I been saying this.
In 2003 they had the “Are you All That” contest to pick a new cast member. I remember asking my parents to sign the waiver/permission slip for the contest. My Mom said, the wording was insanely scary and refused to sign because she was worried about my safety.
Dan was a freak, all of the child feet stuff, like iCarly and the episode where they cover their feet in ketchup, his idea, the episode where Ariana Grande shoves her toes in her mouth, also Dan, Dan is weird, and honestly I believe he is a child abuser, regardless of what's confirmed.
I’ve been waiting for your recap of this
Of course Dan Schneider is gonna stand on drakes side 4:48 that’s what creeps do, pretend to be on the right side until they flip around. They want your trust until they can break it.
I think you should give credit where credits due
My thoughts exacly, classic PR crap "I need to be seen to have this opinion or align myself with this narrative to hide my true feelings/intentions" ect.
Except that went against basically all of Hollywood who, of course, sided with the molester. Drake only had Dan in his corner, well him, Drake's brother and his "mom" who allowed it all to happen
So sick that Disney hired a sexual predator on a kids show ….. knowing he was found GUILTY just terrible. EVERYONE failed those kids.
Disney and Nickelodeon are in the business of SA to children
Disney still hires these types of people to work in their theme parks. Sheriff Grady Judd has news conferences about arrests. He is very forthcoming and tells they are working at Disney. But people keep backing Disney
No television station is left out, what happened on Nickelodeon happened on the Disney Channel and on other channels, there are certainly many victims who never exposed anything, at least that's what gives the impression
Fortunately Cartoon Network hasnt had many issues. It seems like a psychedelicheads over there
Even the one cartoon i know made by a p3do was Ren and Stimpy and thats on Nickelodeon
This is so sad and messed up. Thanks Brett for giving this recognition.❤️❤️❤️
You can talk really fast yet clear enough for all of us still be able to understand... skills 👏 👏 👏 ❤❤❤
They need to do Disney and all the other shows
If you listen to some news conferences with Sheriff Grady Judd in Florida, Disney does hire shady characters who already have criminal backgrounds in this stuff. But people still back Disney.
Disney has had shady business all the way back to the start of the company, Walt Disney wasn’t a saint that the current company tries to portray him as. However he would be asking for everyone’s head from the modern Disney company.
Hey Brett
glad that these child actors are now speaking out about this issue. and I hope that in a way that this heals a wound in them
I just bing-watched the entire series last night. Insightful.
It's easy to joke about something you didn't go through. It's crazy.
Watching Drake's dad made me so sad. He tried so hard to protect him.
love the ad transitions
Been waiting for this😆😆
I feel like they only scratched the surface of what’s going on behind the scenes with kids tv shows
My heart breaks for Amanda bynes. She was clearly traumatized
As i was watching the docuseries. i was remembering reading about Drake's dad being sued for stealing his money, for "being difficult to work with on set". The tears didn't stop when the call between Drake and his dad was mentioned. When he was so happy to know Brian Peck was arrested, and said "Im so glad he was not able to get his hands on you!" My heart just broke for this man...
Alyson Stoner (from Camp Rock) also has a podcast about her experiences in Hollywood and it’s definitely worth the with deep dive into heavy topics like these. It is so sad what happens to these kids
So incredibly sad.
Why is no one talking about dan schineder. He's the pdo that walked free
I have literally waited all week for this video
The fact that Drake’s father tried his best to protect his son while still supporting his dream but failed was so heartbreaking. I still couldn’t believe that one mother that didn’t call the cops when a crew member sent her daughter that email. That absolutely shocking
This documentary broke my heart and I felt hurt alongside Drake. I witnessed the aftermath of what Drake went through with a younger friend from my childhood who went through the same thing. It was traumatizing. I am angry and hurt. Everyone except his dad failed Drake Bell.
This is so sick what Dan did.NO ONE deserves to be treated like this!
I haven’t seen the documentary but it’s heart breaking especially about Drake and his Dad. When I was younger I wanted to pursue acting and my mom was adamant against it and I moved on to other things but these past few years I realize she was right
i’ve cried real tears after hearing about this & watching the documentary…
Brett, you know how to deliver the real news. Thank you
I know right. Are we just gonna ignore what’s up with Candace? 😂
we stand with Candace
What happened?
@@mariageyt.designHer and Daily Wire parted ways 😢
Oh dang, what happened with Candace?
I feel so bad for amanda bynes, her life was completely ruined
Thank you. More people need to stand up for the victims. His friends eereny there for him.
There’s a documentary called “An Open Secret” which is about the creeps in Hollywood and it was so heartbreaking as well. But very eye opening.
