there was no indication in the doc that Schneider knew Drake was being abused before they pressed charges
the case against the pedophile (Brian Peck) had already started by the time Schneider knew about it. Peck was arrested publicly, but Drake’s identity as the abused minor was hidden in the case. but Schneider concluded it was him, asked Drake about it, Drake confirmed, and then Schneider supported him throughout the trial
the “nuance” i was referring to (although probably not the best word for me to use) is that some people (like Drake) can legitimately say that Schneider was a protective figure whereas others can rightfully call him predatory. that’s part of how he got away w all that bullshit
does that make sense?
Yeah that’s fair I just feel if he the major writer and all these predatory things made it into his shows how am I not supposed to get pedophile vibes from him too ?

i agree w that 100%. dude is a piece of s*** and deserves all of the backlash he’s getting for sure
not gonna lie tho, watching the doc did make me feel like he’s being scapegoated by the internet. a lot of people who enabled or aided in the harm of these kids are not getting nearly as much attention, mostly because their names aren’t known like his
like all of those sick jokes in his shows were approved by Nickelodeon and its representatives at the end of the day. Brian Peck was only given 16 months in prison for raping a kid and the other pedophile on The Amanda Show only got 3 years for molesting a 9yo and having a s*** ton of child p***; there were Disney and Nick execs who still continued to hire these men w that s*** on their records. so many foul people involved in the abuse of these children
like i said before, Schneider ain’t s*** and is rightfully catching smoke. but this s*** goes beyond him, it’s basically systemic
burn that whole f***ing industry

Subway had Jared selling kids sandwiches and him next to kids yet I don’t believe no one knew . They just saw their mascot and profit
I heard about this and saw the clip of Drake Bell
I gonna have to peep the whole thing soon
Watched all 4 episodes tonight. S*** had me feeling angry ngl.
I have lots of memories of watching all of these shows, including the Pickle Guy. It's crazy how much went over our heads as kids.
The John Wayne Gacy reveal was f***ing WILD. As was the reveal of the celebrities who defended Brian Peck.
It's absolutely pathetic and disgusting that no one in charge of Nickelodeon at the time could even reach out to Drake Bell (who continued to work for them for several years ). Hollywood really is made of scumbags man.
I just wanna give a hug to Drake Bell 🫂
Drake & Josh was cool asf growing up I can’t believe he was going through that while doing it man it must’ve been hell
also of course it was the black mom who noticed something wasn’t right on the set and got thrown out for speaking on it too much
Elizabeth Gilles (the actress who played the goth girl on victorious) is married to one of Dan Schneider’s best friends “Backhouse Mike” aka Michael Corcoran who worked on the music behind the scenes
She met him when she was 16 and he was 36 on the set
s*** makes me sick
Amanda Show was THAT successful?
That s***'s crazy cause that was one of my least fav shows growing up as a kid
also ima keep it a stack, dan definitely touched that girl
I just wanna give a hug to Drake Bell 🫂

Didn't Drake get convicted of endangering a minor and that same minor called him out in court for sexually abusing her?

From what I’ve seen about that case, he only got a child endangerment charge because the girl lied about her age and went to the concert on her own
