It depends on the actual activity. Every state in America is different. In my country Ghana I'd called defilement once there's no orifice penetration no one gets a lot of jail sentence
It’s because the same people who are in charge of these law and punishments are doing the same thing. The rich and powerful have always been “this way” too sooooo there ya go…
@@lourdesgyanOffenders get off way too easy! Thats one of the reasons why the behavior occurs so much. Doesn’t matter if you penetrated a child or not…touching anyone inappropriately, especially a child is disgusting and should be dealt with properly.
This is why I was not surprised to hear about Amanda Byne's mental health issues. Jeannette McCurdy mentioned how Dan Schneider was inappropriate to her, so I wouldn't be surprise if he did the same to Amanda. He wouldn't give her her own show without asking for something.
It was so obvious, though. People ignored it and called it "progessive." I used to watch that channel as a kid, and one day, I just noticed it was very cringed. Stopped watching that channel in early high school.
@knightowl368 Yep, and there are plenty others who are guilty. Search up what happened to Corey Feldman. He was supposed to name someone years ago but never went through with it because he’s afraid of retaliation. The people who SAd him are older but still prominent and powerful in the entertainment industry.
@@stanford-nf4jk yeah... I thought he was going to say the name but he never did. Also, I think someone on the Disney staff was accused and they just let the man go. If I am not mistaken, Nickelodeon might have hired him. Or it is the opposite. I just say this to say how people were complicit. Nickelodeon made a statement about how the scripts are gone over by executives, which means they read the weird crap Dan wrote with all the feet stuff and thought nothing of it.
Nickelodeon and Disney were such a big part of my childhood and it’s genuinely heartbreaking that our entertainment was at the cost of their safety and sanity.
@@mjung7331 did I say anywhere that it wasn’t a tv show? No I didn’t. But what I did say was that those actors played a big role in giving me a fun and happy childhood, Something you seem to be lacking of. And while those actors would make me and millions of other kids laugh and happy they weren’t able to be that for themselves or each other while working for those networks.
the problem is you and others think drake bell and the rest we should look up too and they are what entertainers. You should look up too firefighters police officers docters nurses not entertainers. if your glued too the tv that isnt a happy child hood thats one that is in fantasy and those shows were pure fantasy @@S-E-P-96
THIS! sad now that we’re adults we can see the inappropriate behavior.. but as children we weren’t meant to have our minds warped to understanding it at that time. I just know I won’t watch these tv shows anymore or even show them to my daughter. So disturbing
i want to thank Jeanette McCurdy for being one of the very first persons to speak out about this. nickelodeon came to her and offered her $300,000 when she was like 19 years old and said if she wanted the money she had to sign an NDA. Jeanette turned that blood money down and wrote her book “I’m Glad My Mom Died” where she was able to freely speak about her time at Nick. She blew the doors off first and now we’re seeing documentaries about it. i hope Dan Schneider is put away forever for his crimes.
But the issue is that these "parents" are the ones sacrificing their children to these predators. How many times must we hear about Holly-weird child actors being used as sex objects? I want you to look at this young black female "That Girl La La" outfit in this Nickelodeon song... /watch?v=ZRbpmnFKBUY And there's another Nickelodeon commercial with a random black girl sticking out her tongue to the camera which makes no since. These "parents" are the one approving this. And it's like you all want to ignore the parents wrong doings and only blame the predators who are being served innocent children on a silver platter. Predators cannot have access to these innocent children if the parents won't allow it.
To not discredit others that have come forward, she wasn’t the first, she was just the one with a big enough platform to gather momentum. And it helped she made the decision despite intimidation, to not settled
He’s still working on Nickelodeon films, isn’t that disgusting? He’s producing one coming out this year. When I found that out I thought wowwwww no wonder they didn’t say anything about him, they still need him. Ick ick ick.
@@mc95897 you’re right, i think alexa nikolas may have been the very first to speak out! kudos to them for being brave. speaking on things that happened to you as a child is really tough.
Sixteen months in prison for child sexual abuse, but if you had weed or drugs, they will try to send you away for decades. That's crazy as hell. Sex offenders just living amongst citizens.
I felt so bad for Drake and his dad while watching the documentary. His dad tried so hard to kept Brian away from Drake, but Brian managed to turn Drake against his dad and get full access to Drake. The fact he only got 16 months after destroying Drakes life is absolutely insane. This documentary shed so much light on some of my favorite shows like Drake and Josh, Zoey 101, and The Amanda Show. I don’t know if I could ever watch those shows the same again after knowing what was going on behind the scenes.
just shows me that you cant trust anyone! plus I wanted to give drake a hug and say its okay or just a hug to hold him! its so sad he want through that hell. Then hearing all the elite cast was with peck and no one was with drake in the court room!
@@babypicassoeisensteinyou have to watch the series. Everything was spelled out how the predator separated Drake from his concerned dad through lies and deception.
My sister and I used to watch All That and The Amanda Show every summer from 1998 to 2001. At 6-9 years old, we did notice at times when kids would go from “animated and energetic” to “deadpan” or “dead faced”. I always thought it was some form of “older kid humor”. But now I realize it was just them flat out being uncomfortable and my sister and I were picking up on what others didn’t see.
@@babypicassoeisenstein the Little Fetus episode was a uncomfortable one, even as a child. There was a weird sketch too where a kid dressed as a cow died by exploding udders. One sketch had a kid just constantly getting covered in substances (the glasses one), that by the last sketch, which was where he was a roller coaster attendant, he didn’t even attempt to deliver his lines with enthusiasm. They just kept pouring what looked like chowder over him. By that sketch, he had been covered in slime already and did a dare I believe.
Isn't that so sinister? That most of these shows some of us kids used as means to escape the reality of abusive environments were themselves steeped in abuse?
@@BRiGHT-CHilD 1 million percent used to watch Disney and Nickelodeon to escape my horrible childhood. Just to find out they were being exploited and faced similar things as me by these powerful people. It's just insane. SMH
Exactly 🆘 Nickelodeon KNEW about the toxic work environment and abuse on these shows and paid PEDOS instead of PROTECTING these CHILDREN! #Period 2024 the year of exposures! 👀💯🗣️
can't blame Nickelodeon for people still being around of course they are going to show support now because they can't say 1 way or the other if they are new to the company. Yes it sucks that Dan and Peck and other disgusting people are still around but you can't stop that, all Nick could do is have no involvement with them and they haven't done any work together at least with Dan since Henry Danger.
After reading Jeanette McCurdy’s book, I knew more people would feel safe to come forward. Shame on these adults who were supposed to protect these kids…
@@Quit3Cut3I’m not saying the parents knew nothing but kids often keep stuff like that to themselves. I was abused as a kid and I wasn’t really able to speak up to years later.
@@Quit3Cut3You're not "sure" of anything! You don't know that, so don't say that. Most young victims don't speak up because they are scared and confused and aren't always mentally mature enough to process things.
@@Litty.uglygod It makes no sense to blame the parents because back then, those sets weren't asking for permission. Once they signed those contracts, I can imagine they practically forfeited their rights to saying what happens creatively to a multi-million production company. Blaming the parents is a cop out for the abusers involved so let's not even go there.
Amanda Bynes was one of those people that was a victim and honestly it’s sad because she’s one of those people who got famous so young, and had parents that pressured her to be famous and if you look at her now, she’s a train wreck that was damaged by creepy adults like Dan Schneider. It’s not just Amanda no less too, it’s lots of them. And ALL of them don’t even have a successful adult career now.
Nickelodeon “dismayed.” You knew! You allowed it to happen! I remember watching some of these sketches and scenes as a kid and being uncomfortable. Glad they’re finally speaking out.
don't blame a company for mistakes that probably happened under previous leadership, we don't even know if they even have any old employees still there.
@@jordonvazquez7620 me too. Jennette McCurdy talks about the iCarly kiss in her book. It was uncomfortable to watch. It was apparently even worse to film.
I remember the dogs and the peanut butter, but I was a kid, so I just thought it was weird. I feel bad for the cast of the 00s All That reboot. It didn't seem like a fun experience for most of the cast, except Jamie Lynn Spears.
Same! I remember in 2003, auditions for All That was going around. I remember thinking it would be so cool to audition. Lucky for me, I never got up the courage to ask my parents and I’m pretty sure they would’ve said “no” anyways. Lol
@@amylee8969 I like to believe that even if your parents said “yes” they would have immediately changed their mind and taken you the fuck outta there the moment they arrived at the audition.
The old Nickelodeon logo was a FOOT. Let that sink in for a minute when you think about how many foot fetish skits Dan Schneider had kids doing and it was right in our face the whole time
What's crazy is there's that and "bystander" effect is strong in that industry. It's crazy because all of these dynamics is like being in a monarchy or something. People being quiet so they can maintain jobs and support themselves or families. While the wolves may also be there, just watching in support. All in the guise of, "how bad do you want ...." "If you don't do...., you're not working/trying hard enough" Wild.
Deadass. I've seen ppl say when they tried to get out or tell someone that person was also a predator. Like they're all keeping each other employed. Now you have 3+ threatin. respect to the gymnastic and theater moms that make it their full time job to watch Everyone's kid.
@@allluvin7977No, it’s very possible to develop a mental disorder and not be born with it. that’s literally what PTSD, it comes from trauma and that trauma causes a mental disorder.
Yeah like the Olsen twins. I remember when people used to laugh at them because of their looks and I would be like ""y'all can't see they've been through trauma", you could just look in their eyes and tell they've been through trauma
As a victim of CSA myself, I must bitterly admit that I am so grateful for this representation. I hope they heal and this situation makes people respect the voices of children. Absolutely no one should be ignored if they are expressing discomfort.
HOW!! did you see the part where alan thicke Joanna Kerns will friedle rider strong james marsden were sitting with peck in the court room and drake was sitting with his mom and lawyer
I remember growing up being so jealous of those actors. As a kid i even tried to become a child actor (which i think turned out to be a scam). But now seeing what my childhood idols went through.....ooof. Im glad they get to speak now but wish they were treated better from the beginning
This is my sentiments exactly I thank God I was never able to be a child actor or anything even tho I had talent in music and more I’m glad God kept me safe
You don't see what's going on behind the scenes. Even without the abuse, the kids on these shows just wanted more than anything to have a normal life. The actors on the shows probably would have switched places with the fans of the shows.
Wow I hadn't thought of All That in so long and as soon as I saw those 2 I recognized them and so many positive emotions came to me. It's terrible knowing they went through so much. I support them 100% and hope this doc is successful!!!
Nickelodeon KNEW, they had Peck and Schneider in their payroll for years and made all those kids keep quiet. Nickelodeon and the people in charge during this time needs to be INVESTIGATED properly because there are just too many children who have been hurt under their care.
This is why they should mandate local cops and social workers to interview any child actor at least once a week so the adults are less likely to do stuff and the child could speak out a lot easier if the cops routinely visit the set.
Yeah, think about it, most of these kids weren’t looking for trouble. All they wanted was to persue their acting dreams and hang out with other kids on set. Only to have their dreams shattered by a nasty environment.
As soon as she asked them what it was like working for Dan, my immediate thought was, "He was not worried about them." It's weird to be right about it.
@@apRN1993 I mean I hear that, but it’s also probably traumatizing as a child to watch your child coworkers be berated & screamed at in front of you, & having to watch them do extremely uncomfortable things.
It’s sad bc these things do not happen under a microscope. It takes an entire village to allow this type of abuse to go on and protect the abuser. When will children’s lives matter more than a paycheck and status?
Just hope you keep that SAME energy as it pertains to children who accused Michael Jackson of molesting them. Now do you understand how & why he got away with his alleged crimes using your same logic
@@Simsfan881-tt2ge By STILL defending him & themselves Dan didn't make those decisions on his own they went through several. Dan asked alot of his crew
@@stephaniehowe0973 You want to see real abuse? Watch the Gabriel Fernandez docuseries. THAT is abuse. Sorry I don't have sympathy for spoiled pompous child stars who can walk away from a job whenever they want but they didn't because they wanted to be famous nickelodeon kids. Maybe blame the parents who wanted to make money from exploiting their children. The only one actually abused was Drake Bell.
I’m so grateful Amanda is still with us and still fighting for a happy life. The way “the media” humiliates celebs during their most painful moments is disgusting. Amanda Bynes, Britney Spears, Lindsay Lohan… etc. Be better parents and choose peace over profit ❤❤❤❤
It's absolutely insane. When we were kids we could only dream to live the lives that they had, not knowing all the horrific shit that was actually happening to them. May they all find peace and healing.
@@michellevasquez557No seeing by her response all she is NOT saying is what u shud be cringing about. U missed alot while u were cringing at the wrg stuff.
This is NOT new. Actors have been coming forward for years, but they were called crazy. People who thought this was happening conspiracy theorist. I want to know who hire Dan. Who else is responsible? It seems Nick is using him as a scapegoat. (I am NOT defending him; they made money and turned their head to his abuse.)
They weren’t allowed to go onto certain parts of sets, the guy in the video Mom and a few others parents did speak up but were ignored and some of the kids decided not to comeback or got fired.
The crazy thing is, the show is for kids so at the time watching as a kid I did think it was hilarious, I wanted to be on all of the sketch shows when I was younger. As an adult I can see how inappropriate it is, yikes
Hollyweird sickos behind the scenes think it is. Frm kids to adults Hollyweird and their perverted practices that entertainers continuously pay to stay on top. Its disgusting
This needs to spark more than a conversation!! At this point, I'm wondering when the whole network is going to be investigated. Enough abuse has been publicized for us to know this was not isolated to two offenders. It's systemic.
Except when it involved Michael Jackson's now 6 victims...then most of you outraged about this will actually dismiss MJ's accusers & DEFEND him...hypocritical & perplexing!
Because they're trying to be dismissive and distance themselves, even though it was a "joke" about how weird that Dan man was with the kids. Even among the kids, so Nick knew. They HAD to know and did nothing.
Right, I mean the Penn state sex scandal had been going on probably 30 years or more. Some things you can't forget and it's very hard to get over, or to come to terms with no matter how much time has passed.
I agree but it’s also true in a practical sense. I mean it’s unlikely that anyone that was involved in this 20 years ago holds an active role in the company. Not to mention, it’s unlikely there would’ve been any record of it given how little companies took sexual assault and harassment seriously back in the early 2000s. I’m not in any way, shape, or form defending Nickelodeon now or in the past but I do acknowledge that there’s tons of people at Nick catching blame for this when they probably had no idea themselves.
Corey Feldman and Corey Haim spoke about this vile and disgusting assaults years ago and I honestly think that the parents should definitely be able to be present on sets with their children
Without a doubt I feel very bad for Drake Bell his dad and the rest of the cast members who used to work at Nickelodeon they all have been through a lot for real
Wow that was terrible, but Nickelodeon should be held accountable for this! Because it was very inappropriate for the kid content! I want kids to be safe and be careful on that!
Exactly what my point is made on my opinion on it. Nickelodeon allowed 4 adults who literally worked with children do damaging things to them. But the most sad thing is this: NONE of these Nickelodeon stars even HAVE a successful adult career now no less. None of them have big time movies or tv shows or anything now except Ariana Grande no less. And even she is being traumatic by it too. But never the less, they have to fall back on doing a documentary series about their childhood careers being abused and treated inappropriately because honestly none of them have anything going on in their lives now. Also I’d like to point out this, Nickelodeon truly was my childhood as well too. I grew up watching All That as a kid and loved the sketches but didn’t anyone even noticed how some sketches like All That or Amanda Show Or Victorious Or ICarly that some of the stunts and things they did didn’t seem appropriate for kids to do? I mean if you think about it, some of them seemed disturbing and wrong. Not only that we saw lots of sexual stuff that kids shouldn’t have done no less. Like for example girls wearing bikinis or the feet jokes or the disgusting dares like we saw in that clip no less. Even having overweight boys removing their shirts and doing it as comedy jokes no less. Didn’t Nickelodeon even LOOK at what they were doing?! Or even ALLOWING? Not only that but what’s worse was that besides Dan Schneider and Bryan Peck, Nickelodeon allowed two other adult men work for them and one of them ALREADY had a case involving sexual abuse with a child and Nickelodeon STILL allowed it to happen. If anyone is to blame, Nickelodeon is and their stupid messages on this wasn’t apologetic at all.
So many instances today of abuse with children. Like on disney channel that show andi mak, the adult actor on that show was arrested for trying to solicit a 13 year old boy.
It’s not the channel‘a own fault. They were run by bad people at the time. Cyma Zarghami, along with the late Sumner Redstone, Phil Daumann and the board of directors at their parent company ViacomCBS (paramount global) have caused way too much trouble for the channel trying to compete with Disney channel’s live action shows under Anne Sweeney’s leadership. Nickelodeon wouldn’t have let Dan Schneider got away with that bullshit in the first place if not for Zarghami and friends’ evil schemes. They made Nickelodeon into what they are. So sad what happened to the kid stars.
Btw Christy Carlson Romano interviewed a few people too. Her ability to communicate the real behind the scenes of Disney is shocking - Disney and Nickelodeon have been doing this for decades.
We were too young to realize or even know about the truth, it just made us laugh everyday after school and created childhood memories that came with an unknown dark truth.💔😔
Poor Corey Feldman has been sounding the alarm on this mess for years! He has been dismissed, made a fool of, threatened, ignored, everything else - but still stands behind what he says. I have a lot of respect for Corey and always have.
Now I feel my childhood has been violated as well. My favorite actors, the ones that made me laugh, were going through this while they were also entertaining me
I think that’s how a lot of us feel who grew up loving The Cosby Show, not knowing what was going on with Bill Cosby. It was a funny, intelligent show with an amazing cast.
Disney is more of an emotionally abusive environment than Nickelodeon. The levels of repression, the overbearing micromanagement of personal choices, the extra work on other projects or events (Disney Channel Games) for next to nothing.
My nephew was looked at for a role on a Nick series around a decade ago, my sister and him turned down the opportunity and I'm actually kind of glad he didn't get the role after hearing about how Schneider treated his casts and crew.
I remember being 16-17 a bit older than my little sister. I'll pass by the tv and see some disturbing things and I remember thinking to myself this is not right. Unfortunately, at home no one care much about what we watched.
Dan Schneider’s already using Joss Whedon logic. “What can I say? I demand perfection. Not everyone has what it takes to work with me.” He’ll just imply they’re either career busts or “pussied out” and quit.
Can you imagine covering an underage kid in peanut butter and having dogs lick it off his half naked body and not going to jail for it? Wow what a world... How was that ever thought to be okay
Nickelodeon knew and kept Dan because he made them money, and they knew it at the time it was happening as it was an open secret. Articles and comments are out there going back at least to the early 2000s on the old Gawker site.
Whenever an adult doesn't want a parent near their child while the teen is at work, the adult has ulterior motives. If a parent wants to stick around while their teen is at work, to keep the teen safe, then that should be fine.
I think I was in the All That era and didn’t watch much Nick after that. But that peanut butter scene was so sad to see. I didn’t watch that as a youth, fortunately. But, as a parent to a boy now, I can’t imagine hearing him say, “I don’t like this” and not being listened to. And advocated for. I’m so sorry this happened to so many Nick young stars. May they all find healing and comfort in this new journey of truth and realization. ❤
It's also been like this during the 2010s. Remember Channel Awesome? Yeah, the problems started to rise up when former Channel Awesome online reviewers compiled multiple complaints about unprofessionalism and abuse in the company. On top of that, there have also been interviews with former Disney Channel stars exposing the problematic environment occurring in select shows and movies.
It breaks my heart that the shows I grew up watching were nothing but bad times behind the scenes. Were there no good times? Were the good times nothing but a lie?
It’s too late Nickelodeon, it’s a shame that Dan can’t even give a public apology speaking for himself and what he has done. It’s sad they are barely talking about this now. Amanda Bynes lived with Dan for a while, she was his favorite…then I realized that he abused her and why she struggled with mental health issues. She probably doesn’t even remember what happened. Good for Drake, Jeanette and Alexa for speaking out. This is why Ariana is also demonstrating her own problems the way Dan made her suck her toes, what a disgusting man and place
Usher’s Mom sent him to live with P.Sh*tty in New York at age 13 so… a lot of these Parents KNOW exactly what they ARE DOING when they put their children in the hands of PREDATORS! And, their JUDGEMENT awaits them! “Do NOT pass your children through the fire to MOLECH…” and the “fire” CAN take MANY forms!
"We're saddened to learn".... no no no. Nickelodeon learned a long time ago. I'm sure they gave Drake Bell his show as a way to "do right" by him and hope he wouldn't speak about it. Peck was arrested in 2003. Drake and Josh premiered 2004.
and you do understand that they might not have the same people there, right? Companies don't always keep the same employees around for years so maybe the current ones have no clue about what Dan did other than what they've heard through whispers.
Everyone keeps making Drake Bell into a monster. He's not. He is not perfect. He made stupid decisions. But he's doing what no other celebrity has done. Get help. The minority of celebrities just whine and say my trauma and keep repeating the cycle of abuse. Drake is actually trying to heal and be a better person. Drake Bell didn't SA anyone. The sexual abuse was unfounded. The aunt, friends, and other witnesses wrote statements she was never alone with him. The girl changed her story many times. If it was true the Aunt also would have been charged since the girl said, they had sex in front of her. It was proven in court she lied about SA. What actually happened he sent an inappropriate DM. Thinking she was older because she had fake pictures of her smoking and drinking. He didn't realize they were fake. When he found her age he blocked her. Then when the girl found out he was married. She started making false allegations. Everyone on social media is guilty of what Drake Bell did. I can't count how many times I have seen inappropriate comments from adults on family bloggers, and teenagers on social media making comments on their looks, asking when they will be 18. Brian Peck should be talked about more it's like everyone is ignoring what he did. Only only focusing on what Drake did. Brain peck did something much worse
I understand that this isn’t the main focus for the documentary but I just want to say something about Drake’s part: Drake was found INNOCENT of sexual assault as it was proven at his court hearing that his accuser lied under oath. The child endangerment charge was a plea deal that Drake took for RESPONDING to the fan’s messages and her being present at his concerts without his knowledge. She lied about her age to get him to talk to her and once he found out about her age he blocked her on all forms of social media. The media has reported a lot of misconceptions about his case so I just wanted to clear that up.
I can't find any documentation of this. It's all Drake saying, "Just trust me, I didn't do anything except respond." If you or anyone reading this can find anything official please let me know.
Amanda Bynes, Lark Voorhees, and Maia Campbell. Not all of these were on Nickelodeon, but all were young stars who are now dealing with mental health issues. I wonder if there is a connection.
Sad because I watched them growing up especially Giovonnie, I can only imagine what she went through as a young woman. I was shocked to see Bryan. The clip they showed of him made me cringe 😢.
It’s crazy to enjoy these shows as a kid and then see the truth as an adult. Alyson Stoner has an entire eye opening and heartbreaking series titled Dear Hollywood.
As a child, I imagined those kid actors had it made (and was so envious). I guess we get to see now that you cant judge a book by its cover. The sad part is that while we were wishing we had their lives, they were wishing they had ours. The sacrificed so much, and Im just glad they are letting the truth be known. They deserve to be heard.
I know some parents didn't/don't care, but Drake CLEARLY says his father was TRYING to be protective, but the guy was driving a wedge between them. On purpose, which probably made Drake rebel and be around creepy dude more often. It's how kids are groomed. We know some parents got the reputation of "difficult" and I bet it was because those parents actually stayed around their kids and watched them like hawks. Parents who were unsure or were able to be talked into letting these teams take their kids... sad, but we need to keep blame on the predators, because I bet a lot of parents assumed their kids were safe. They really shouldn't, though.
@@BooDotBoo how could some stranger drive a wedge. As the adult and parent I have the power to pull my kid out. Dad liked the money and allowed it. You're noy s parent, because we do not assume our kids are safe with Hollywood pedos. Its well known fact. Im blaming both the parent and the pedo. I dont expect anything from strangers, but I expect a lot from parents of the kids.
@@Taniere Grooming is about manipulation. Also, if he was locked into a contract, taking him out could get him sued. And, if a child is already being manipulated to think you're the bad guy, this could ruin your relationship with your child forever.
As a black man who’s probly the same age, so much respect for Bryan hearne because back in the 90s we were told to “be strong” and for him to say he was vulnerable and uncomfortable take a lot of bravery on National TV. Also as I see him walking down the street with both hands in pocket and swaying I can see he still has his swagger and masculinity lol
As someone who has done a Nickelodeon documentary(Nickellinnium) I want to say I am sorry Drake Bell. Nickelodeon let you down. And I am here to support you!
SIXTEEN MONTHS IN PRISON FOR RAPING A CHILD!?!?! THERES THE PROBLEM!!!
It depends on the actual activity. Every state in America is different. In my country Ghana I'd called defilement once there's no orifice penetration no one gets a lot of jail sentence

i want to thank Jeanette McCurdy for being one of the very first persons to speak out about this. nickelodeon came to her and offered her $300,000 when she was like 19 years old and said if she wanted the money she had to sign an NDA. Jeanette turned that blood money down and wrote her book “I’m Glad My Mom Died” where she was able to freely speak about her time at Nick. She blew the doors off first and now we’re seeing documentaries about it. i hope Dan Schneider is put away forever for his crimes.
But the issue is that these "parents" are the ones sacrificing their children to these predators. How many times must we hear about Holly-weird child actors being used as sex objects? I want you to look at this young black female "That Girl La La" outfit in this Nickelodeon song... /watch?v=ZRbpmnFKBUY
And there's another Nickelodeon commercial with a random black girl sticking out her tongue to the camera which makes no since. These "parents" are the one approving this. And it's like you all want to ignore the parents wrong doings and only blame the predators who are being served innocent children on a silver platter. Predators cannot have access to these innocent children if the parents won't allow it.
@@disguiseddv8ant486 did you miss the part where i mentioned Jeanette McCurdy’s book is titled “I’m Glad My Mom Died” ?
To not discredit others that have come forward, she wasn’t the first, she was just the one with a big enough platform to gather momentum. And it helped she made the decision despite intimidation, to not settled

I felt so bad for Drake and his dad while watching the documentary. His dad tried so hard to kept Brian away from Drake, but Brian managed to turn Drake against his dad and get full access to Drake. The fact he only got 16 months after destroying Drakes life is absolutely insane. This documentary shed so much light on some of my favorite shows like Drake and Josh, Zoey 101, and The Amanda Show. I don’t know if I could ever watch those shows the same again after knowing what was going on behind the scenes.
Wow very depressing and sad.
how did his father allow that?
just shows me that you cant trust anyone! plus I wanted to give drake a hug and say its okay or just a hug to hold him! its so sad he want through that hell. Then hearing all the elite cast was with peck and no one was with drake in the court room!
@@babypicassoeisensteinyou have to watch the series. Everything was spelled out how the predator separated Drake from his concerned dad through lies and deception.
Wow so heartbreaking 💔
My sister and I used to watch All That and The Amanda Show every summer from 1998 to 2001. At 6-9 years old, we did notice at times when kids would go from “animated and energetic” to “deadpan” or “dead faced”. I always thought it was some form of “older kid humor”. But now I realize it was just them flat out being uncomfortable and my sister and I were picking up on what others didn’t see.
Me and you need to talk. Because honey you aint never lied!😢😢😢😢
You sure, though? That is deadpan humour. They wouldn't show it otherwise, it wouldn't make the edit, surely.
@@babypicassoeisenstein the Little Fetus episode was a uncomfortable one, even as a child. There was a weird sketch too where a kid dressed as a cow died by exploding udders. One sketch had a kid just constantly getting covered in substances (the glasses one), that by the last sketch, which was where he was a roller coaster attendant, he didn’t even attempt to deliver his lines with enthusiasm. They just kept pouring what looked like chowder over him. By that sketch, he had been covered in slime already and did a dare I believe.
It's honestly so devastating because our entire childhood, if you grew up in the 90s is full of predators.

can't blame Nickelodeon for people still being around of course they are going to show support now because they can't say 1 way or the other if they are new to the company. Yes it sucks that Dan and Peck and other disgusting people are still around but you can't stop that, all Nick could do is have no involvement with them and they haven't done any work together at least with Dan since Henry Danger.
After reading Jeanette McCurdy’s book, I knew more people would feel safe to come forward. Shame on these adults who were supposed to protect these kids…
Shame on the parents too. I’m sure the kids went to their parents complaining and they didn’t listen or believe them, because money mattered more.
@@Quit3Cut3I’m not saying the parents knew nothing but kids often keep stuff like that to themselves. I was abused as a kid and I wasn’t really able to speak up to years later.

Your childhood wasn’t any better. They just expose themselves for money and fame. But as a child that mentally is normal.
This is my sentiments exactly I thank God I was never able to be a child actor or anything even tho I had talent in music and more I’m glad God kept me safe
I relate… when I first saw Amanda show I felt admiration but also instant envy that she had her own show and got to do all these cool things
You don't see what's going on behind the scenes. Even without the abuse, the kids on these shows just wanted more than anything to have a normal life. The actors on the shows probably would have switched places with the fans of the shows.
Wow I hadn't thought of All That in so long and as soon as I saw those 2 I recognized them and so many positive emotions came to me. It's terrible knowing they went through so much. I support them 100% and hope this doc is successful!!!

I feel for all those kids. 16 months is nothing for a lifetime of trauma for multiple victims.
And Disney had the audacity to hire him after this sentence to be around more children 🙄🙄🙄
The most insidious part of the story (for me) was the PR polished bullshit statements offered by Nickelodeon and Dan Schneider.
Decades ago sounds very dismissive
Well…..
Because they're trying to be dismissive and distance themselves, even though it was a "joke" about how weird that Dan man was with the kids. Even among the kids, so Nick knew. They HAD to know and did nothing.
Right, I mean the Penn state sex scandal had been going on probably 30 years or more. Some things you can't forget and it's very hard to get over, or to come to terms with no matter how much time has passed.
It is. Media tactic to downplay the seriousness so no one thinks to dig and figure out who else knew, seem like it was soooo long ago, etc. Media😖
I agree but it’s also true in a practical sense. I mean it’s unlikely that anyone that was involved in this 20 years ago holds an active role in the company. Not to mention, it’s unlikely there would’ve been any record of it given how little companies took sexual assault and harassment seriously back in the early 2000s. I’m not in any way, shape, or form defending Nickelodeon now or in the past but I do acknowledge that there’s tons of people at Nick catching blame for this when they probably had no idea themselves.
Even as a kid and especially as a teenager looking back. I always thought some of it was weird.
Corey Feldman and Corey Haim spoke about this vile and disgusting assaults years ago and I honestly think that the parents should definitely be able to be present on sets with their children
Without a doubt I feel very bad for Drake Bell his dad and the rest of the cast members who used to work at Nickelodeon they all have been through a lot for real
Wow that was terrible, but Nickelodeon should be held accountable for this! Because it was very inappropriate for the kid content! I want kids to be safe and be careful on that!
Nope that’s the power on Earth lol
Exactly what my point is made on my opinion on it. Nickelodeon allowed 4 adults who literally worked with children do damaging things to them. But the most sad thing is this: NONE of these Nickelodeon stars even HAVE a successful adult career now no less. None of them have big time movies or tv shows or anything now except Ariana Grande no less. And even she is being traumatic by it too. But never the less, they have to fall back on doing a documentary series about their childhood careers being abused and treated inappropriately because honestly none of them have anything going on in their lives now. Also I’d like to point out this, Nickelodeon truly was my childhood as well too. I grew up watching All That as a kid and loved the sketches but didn’t anyone even noticed how some sketches like All That or Amanda Show Or Victorious Or ICarly that some of the stunts and things they did didn’t seem appropriate for kids to do? I mean if you think about it, some of them seemed disturbing and wrong. Not only that we saw lots of sexual stuff that kids shouldn’t have done no less. Like for example girls wearing bikinis or the feet jokes or the disgusting dares like we saw in that clip no less. Even having overweight boys removing their shirts and doing it as comedy jokes no less. Didn’t Nickelodeon even LOOK at what they were doing?! Or even ALLOWING? Not only that but what’s worse was that besides Dan Schneider and Bryan Peck, Nickelodeon allowed two other adult men work for them and one of them ALREADY had a case involving sexual abuse with a child and Nickelodeon STILL allowed it to happen. If anyone is to blame, Nickelodeon is and their stupid messages on this wasn’t apologetic at all.
@@MiggyRules And guess what…..Acs will never take them away.
So many instances today of abuse with children. Like on disney channel that show andi mak, the adult actor on that show was arrested for trying to solicit a 13 year old boy.
It’s not the channel‘a own fault. They were run by bad people at the time. Cyma Zarghami, along with the late Sumner Redstone, Phil Daumann and the board of directors at their parent company ViacomCBS (paramount global) have caused way too much trouble for the channel trying to compete with Disney channel’s live action shows under Anne Sweeney’s leadership. Nickelodeon wouldn’t have let Dan Schneider got away with that bullshit in the first place if not for Zarghami and friends’ evil schemes. They made Nickelodeon into what they are. So sad what happened to the kid stars.
I definitely remember her on All That. This is wild how a lot of those actors you'd like to be as a kid were going through bad times at young ages!
I hope Alyson Stoner interviews these stars too and touches light on the documentary.
Btw Christy Carlson Romano interviewed a few people too. Her ability to communicate the real behind the scenes of Disney is shocking - Disney and Nickelodeon have been doing this for decades.
Stoner could be a gifted therapist.
We were too young to realize or even know about the truth, it just made us laugh everyday after school and created childhood memories that came with an unknown dark truth.💔😔
Cory Feldman has been saying this all along and the public dismissed him!
Poor Corey Feldman has been sounding the alarm on this mess for years! He has been dismissed, made a fool of, threatened, ignored, everything else - but still stands behind what he says. I have a lot of respect for Corey and always have.
Now I feel my childhood has been violated as well. My favorite actors, the ones that made me laugh, were going through this while they were also entertaining me
I think that’s how a lot of us feel who grew up loving The Cosby Show, not knowing what was going on with Bill Cosby. It was a funny, intelligent show with an amazing cast.

Kind of glad? More like EXTREMELY glad.....................right??
Throw Dan Schneider in prison already.
I remember being 16-17 a bit older than my little sister. I'll pass by the tv and see some disturbing things and I remember thinking to myself this is not right. Unfortunately, at home no one care much about what we watched.
Nickelodeon: Why you bringing up old stuff?
Dan Schneider’s already using Joss Whedon logic. “What can I say? I demand perfection. Not everyone has what it takes to work with me.” He’ll just imply they’re either career busts or “pussied out” and quit.
That pretty much sums it up 🥴
Can you imagine covering an underage kid in peanut butter and having dogs lick it off his half naked body and not going to jail for it? Wow what a world... How was that ever thought to be okay
They humaniated him on tv for ratings. How dogs licking peanut butter off someone funny 😢
they were on crack.
Nickelodeon knew and kept Dan because he made them money, and they knew it at the time it was happening as it was an open secret. Articles and comments are out there going back at least to the early 2000s on the old Gawker site.
Whenever an adult doesn't want a parent near their child while the teen is at work, the adult has ulterior motives.
If a parent wants to stick around while their teen is at work, to keep the teen safe, then that should be fine.
It not only had an impact on them but also their audience
Justice for the child stars.
I think I was in the All That era and didn’t watch much Nick after that. But that peanut butter scene was so sad to see. I didn’t watch that as a youth, fortunately. But, as a parent to a boy now, I can’t imagine hearing him say, “I don’t like this” and not being listened to. And advocated for. I’m so sorry this happened to so many Nick young stars. May they all find healing and comfort in this new journey of truth and realization. ❤
They probably thought it was a funny reaction, but it was actually a cry for help.

It breaks my heart that the shows I grew up watching were nothing but bad times behind the scenes. Were there no good times? Were the good times nothing but a lie?
16 MONTHS!!!!!!! There are drug dealers in jail for life over weed…. And destroying innocence--a slap on the wrist
A little too late. These kids lives are forever changed.
It’s too late Nickelodeon, it’s a shame that Dan can’t even give a public apology speaking for himself and what he has done.
It’s sad they are barely talking about this now. Amanda Bynes lived with Dan for a while, she was his favorite…then I realized that he abused her and why she struggled with mental health issues. She probably doesn’t even remember what happened.
Good for Drake, Jeanette and Alexa for speaking out. This is why Ariana is also demonstrating her own problems the way Dan made her suck her toes, what a disgusting man and place
She lived with him?!😨 What parent allowed that?
Usher’s Mom sent him to live with P.Sh*tty in New York at age 13 so… a lot of these Parents KNOW exactly what they ARE DOING when they put their children in the hands of PREDATORS! And, their JUDGEMENT awaits them! “Do NOT pass your children through the fire to MOLECH…” and the “fire” CAN take MANY forms!
@@sjg5994that’s what I’m saying!!! These parents just sell their kids to the industry smh
@@sjg5994the same parents that put her in a conservatorship....
amanda bynes was living with him???? wtf
"We're saddened to learn".... no no no. Nickelodeon learned a long time ago. I'm sure they gave Drake Bell his show as a way to "do right" by him and hope he wouldn't speak about it. Peck was arrested in 2003. Drake and Josh premiered 2004.
and you do understand that they might not have the same people there, right? Companies don't always keep the same employees around for years so maybe the current ones have no clue about what Dan did other than what they've heard through whispers.
@@MattZRJSRoxy☝🏼☝🏼☝🏼 found the P3doBear executive from nickolodean. Your about to get get doxxed in a bit. Just letting you know
Bryan Hearne ❤
I had no idea he did any other work after Hardball .
ALL of the adults working on EVERY child show need to be investigated 💯
Everyone keeps making Drake Bell into a monster. He's not. He is not perfect. He made stupid decisions. But he's doing what no other celebrity has done. Get help. The minority of celebrities just whine and say my trauma and keep repeating the cycle of abuse. Drake is actually trying to heal and be a better person. Drake Bell didn't SA anyone. The sexual abuse was unfounded. The aunt, friends, and other witnesses wrote statements she was never alone with him. The girl changed her story many times. If it was true the Aunt also would have been charged since the girl said, they had sex in front of her. It was proven in court she lied about SA. What actually happened he sent an inappropriate DM. Thinking she was older because she had fake pictures of her smoking and drinking. He didn't realize they were fake. When he found her age he blocked her. Then when the girl found out he was married. She started making false allegations. Everyone on social media is guilty of what Drake Bell did. I can't count how many times I have seen inappropriate comments from adults on family bloggers, and teenagers on social media making comments on their looks, asking when they will be 18. Brian Peck should be talked about more it's like everyone is ignoring what he did. Only only focusing on what Drake did. Brain peck did something much worse
The older you get, the bolder you become. This is why victims wait until they have all their cards right.
Exactly cause Dan was paid 7m to leave Nickelodeon
I understand that this isn’t the main focus for the documentary but I just want to say something about Drake’s part: Drake was found INNOCENT of sexual assault as it was proven at his court hearing that his accuser lied under oath. The child endangerment charge was a plea deal that Drake took for RESPONDING to the fan’s messages and her being present at his concerts without his knowledge. She lied about her age to get him to talk to her and once he found out about her age he blocked her on all forms of social media. The media has reported a lot of misconceptions about his case so I just wanted to clear that up.
YES YES AND YES I SWEAR IVE BEEN GOING CRAZY ARGUING THIS AGAINST ALL THE SJW CLOUT SEEKING DEMONS ON TWITTER WHO CAN"T SEE.
How do you know all this?
Is there a link for court documents?
I can't find any documentation of this. It's all Drake saying, "Just trust me, I didn't do anything except respond." If you or anyone reading this can find anything official please let me know.
Wow, this interview was disturbing. I can't imagine what the documentary will reveal. I hope the kids find some form of peace and solace.
Amanda Bynes, Lark Voorhees, and Maia Campbell. Not all of these were on Nickelodeon, but all were young stars who are now dealing with mental health issues. I wonder if there is a connection.
This part 1 of documentary was so disturbing but needed. Please protect these children, if u see something speak up
Sad because I watched them growing up especially Giovonnie, I can only imagine what she went through as a young woman. I was shocked to see Bryan. The clip they showed of him made me cringe 😢.
I was like is this a skinemax skit or nickelodeon?
Didn't the nickelodeon awards have a twerk award presented to a bunch of kids recently! None of this surprises me.
WHAT?!!
Hell yea 😎
That was the Teen Choice Awards, actually. Anyone else miss them before Covid killed them?
@@AJ-xc4qeI forgot about the Teen Choice Awards. I always wondered why the show never came back after COVID
they what
Yep it's bout the time the truth comes out. Prayers
It’s crazy to enjoy these shows as a kid and then see the truth as an adult. Alyson Stoner has an entire eye opening and heartbreaking series titled Dear Hollywood.
As a child, I imagined those kid actors had it made (and was so envious). I guess we get to see now that you cant judge a book by its cover. The sad part is that while we were wishing we had their lives, they were wishing they had ours. The sacrificed so much, and Im just glad they are letting the truth be known. They deserve to be heard.
Now it makes sense why Zendaya mom was everywhere where Zendaya went cuz of predators like this
Makes sense. That is how its supposed to be. Parents need to be held accountable.
She wasn’t working for Nickelodeon where the parents weren’t allowed on set.
@@ting-ting7001 I know that but Keke was with Nickelodeon and her mom was on set with her tooo
Zendaya is also a victim of Hollywood especially because of Harvey Weinstein. Why do you think she gets major roles now?
Society has gone so long not speaking up about these monsters.
It's a new day.
And I'm always proud of EVERYONE who stands up.
The parents selling their children to studios and standing back watching the trauma.
I know some parents didn't/don't care, but Drake CLEARLY says his father was TRYING to be protective, but the guy was driving a wedge between them. On purpose, which probably made Drake rebel and be around creepy dude more often. It's how kids are groomed. We know some parents got the reputation of "difficult" and I bet it was because those parents actually stayed around their kids and watched them like hawks. Parents who were unsure or were able to be talked into letting these teams take their kids... sad, but we need to keep blame on the predators, because I bet a lot of parents assumed their kids were safe. They really shouldn't, though.
@@BooDotBoo how could some stranger drive a wedge. As the adult and parent I have the power to pull my kid out. Dad liked the money and allowed it.
You're noy s parent, because we do not assume our kids are safe with Hollywood pedos. Its well known fact. Im blaming both the parent and the pedo. I dont expect anything from strangers, but I expect a lot from parents of the kids.
@@Taniere Grooming is about manipulation. Also, if he was locked into a contract, taking him out could get him sued. And, if a child is already being manipulated to think you're the bad guy, this could ruin your relationship with your child forever.
As a black man who’s probly the same age, so much respect for Bryan hearne because back in the 90s we were told to “be strong” and for him to say he was vulnerable and uncomfortable take a lot of bravery on National TV. Also as I see him walking down the street with both hands in pocket and swaying I can see he still has his swagger and masculinity lol
As someone who has done a Nickelodeon documentary(Nickellinnium) I want to say I am sorry Drake Bell. Nickelodeon let you down. And I am here to support you!
