Giovonnie Samuels and Bryan Hearne are Using Bad Experiences at Nickelodeon For Good [Interview]

Headlines surrounding the upcoming Nickelodeon docuseries Quiet On Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV have largely centered around sexual impropriety and inappropriate behavior. For Nickelodeon to be at the forefront of a salacious scandal is shocking because the network has been responsible for creating mega-child stars, including Kenan Thompson and Kel Mitchell, Nick Cannon, Raven Symone, Amanda Bynes, Ariana Grande, and many more. The kid-friendly channel that most parents consider age-appropriate programming for their children, many Nickelodeon sets under the direction of Dan Schnieder specifically, has been exposed as a toxic environment that left many beloved child stars with life-long trauma and painful secrets.
