Investigation Discovery’s four-part documentary series Quiet on Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV delves into the toxic work conditions on some of the late 1990s and early 2000s kids TV shows. The docuseries will air over two nights, beginning on March 17, 2024 at 9pm ET/PT and wrapping up on Monday, March 18th.
Directed by Mary Robertson and Emma Schwartz, the docuseries features interviews with Alexa Nikolas, Giovonnie Samuels, Kyle Sullivan, Bryan Hearne, Marc Summers, and Katrina Johnson. Virgil Fabian, Jenny Kilgen, and Christy Stratton also participate in interviews.
Investigation Discovery released this description of the documentary series:
“Quiet on Set pulls back the curtain on an empire, built by creator Dan Schneider, that had an undeniable grip on popular culture. Series such as All That and The Amanda Show, among others, were obsessively consumed by children across the country and defined comedy for a generation. But behind the upbeat onscreen presence on these shows with questionable jokes and over-the-top sketches, Quiet on Set reveals an insidious environment rife with allegations of abuse, sexism, racism, and inappropriate dynamics with its underage stars and crew.”
