Dan Schneider spoke out about the allegations made against him during his reign at Nickelodeon in the ID docuseries ‘Quiet on Set’
Dan Schneider gave his first interview regarding the allegations against him in the recent docuseries Quiet on Set.
“I can tell you why it hurts really bad for me. I remember very clearly my early experiences my first experiences in the entertainment business,” Schneider said. “I was green, I was scared, I was excited. It meant the world to me that I was getting those opportunities and I went in and I got lucky cause they were great.”
In the doc, Christy Stratton and Jenny Kilgen claimed that the environment in the writers’ room was inappropriate, especially since they were tasked with creating jokes for children’s programming. The writers alleged that the room’s humor involved adult conduct and sexual innuendos. Kilgen also claimed that Schneider asked her for massages on multiple occasions.
“I would let the pressure of doing 40 or even more episodes per year,” Schneider explained. “I would let that pressure get to me, which a good boss should never ever do.” While she was in her late teens, Bynes wanted to get emancipated from her parents and allegedly went to her team, which included Schneider, for help.
