TheQuiet on Set: The Dark Side of Kids TVdocumentary has fans revisiting old episodes from their childhood, and now they’re realizing just how sexually suggestive and uncomfortable some of the scenes were.
The four-part series explores the dark side of children’s television and uncovers some of the disturbing allegations of sexual assault, abuse, racism, inappropriate adult/child dynamics, and toxicity of some of the most popular shows from the ’90s and ’00s likeThe Amanda Show,All That,iCarly— all of which were created or produced by Dan Schneider.
One of the most shocking revelations came whenDrake & Joshstar Drake Bellcame forwardalleging he was sexually assaulted when he was 15 by actor and dialogue coach Brian Peck. Brian wasconvictedin 2004 of a lewd act against a child and oral copulation of a person under 16.
The documentary also revealed that a former Nickelodeon production assistant named Jason Handy wasarrestedin 2003 after he was found in possession of over 1,700 images of child pornography, Ziploc bags with “tokens” from young girls including a pair of underwear, and personal journals with frightening entries.

Outside of the predators on set, another common theme discussed in the docuseries was the sexual innuendos hidden in the scenes and scripts of programs geared toward kids.
A spotlight was put on a few of Ariana Grande’s scenes when she starred as Cat Valentine onVictorious. In the documentary, the scenes are described as “online extras that the network didn’t know what to do with.”
The scenes included Ariana’s character sticking her foot in her mouth, which added to the rumor that Dan Schneider had a foot fetish, as well as Ariana squeezing a potato while she opens her mouth and grunts with her eyes closed.
In 2019, Skarlett Akira released a compilation video on their YouTube channel calledAriana Grande Being Sexualized on Victorious for 2 Minutes Straight, which included those two scenes and more.
Part of the video resurfaced on Twitter afterQuiet on Setaired, and people were disgusted by what they saw:

I ve been on this Dan Schneider thing ever since I laid eye on the ariana grande water grease-gun scene — that clotheshorse had more threatening adhesive friction on society and the ability to reach and operate so many young judgement for about a decade is truly something to mind
the energy mass are set into blow up amanda bynes and ariana grande ’s socials need them to speak should be redirected towards the people at nickelodeon who allow that shit go uncontrolled for decades
frankly Ariana Grande was really put in such compromising situations on Nickelodeon — that ’s why I had to stop tuning in , because I liked her too much to continue seeing it fr
Ariana was sexualize in Victorious . Actually all of them were but that urine gun view with the male child are still on top of my head even if I ’m nearing Season 3 . 🙈
between display like spongebob where they live in “ two-piece bottom ” or all the weird foot poppycock on icarly or literally anything ariana grande did on winning or the obvious c*mshots on zoey101 , idek how nickelodeon is still running as a troupe tbh
This whole situation with Nickelodeon just continues to show clip and time again that children ’s lives are not valued#QuietOnSetwe saw in real time how abused child grown up to become broken adult . Ariana grande , Amanda Bynes , Drake Bell , etc .
