I got so mad at the end when he said “there should be a therapist there to make sure the kid really wants to be on tv and understands what’s going to happen”. Are you kidding me? No child would expect to be subjected to sexual harassment on a TV show. It wasn’t never about the kids not actually wanting to be on TV, it’s about YOU manipulating children on YOUR tv show. He tried to make it sound like they should’ve expected what happened. Literally victim blaming.

To be fair, there were cuts in between. He started to well up as he was saying something, so they kept that in, but probably cut out the part where he calms himself down. They probably understood that keeping the crying in would be seen as manipulative (even though this whole thing is manipulative tbh) but if I was editing a video I would probably cut it the same way

[@jimmyrustler8983]

I was bullied growing up. Never had attention from girls in school, or my parents for that matter. Had fights almost every day in school. I'd never make anyone feel the way I was made to feel. I'm no people pleaser, but I'm kind and courteous to everyone. Dan's the antithesis of that, I've seen it happen to so many people. Hell, I've even had to work for people like him. The sad truth to it that shitty behaviour like theirs gets results in the form of dollars. We need to put a stop to it.

[@amylee8969]

@Devonbroyles I feel that way too. He resents kids and females b/c he was hurt and rejected by them (probably for being the “fat” awkward kid). In his twisted mind, he thinks all kids/girls should suffer like he suffered. Still no excuse for his behavior though.

[@elih6087]

Dan basically says he wants to apologize... but never actually does. If he really meant it, he'd reach out to each and every person in the doc, and even those that weren't. He hasn't. He's already built his empire and he comes off as if he currently has no shame about anything he did. Cut the jokes out? The damage has already been done. My heart absolutely breaks for Drake Bell and what he went through. I couldn't watch his interview without crying my eyes out. The fact that his father had his suspicions and it happened anyway, especially when he warned Drake's mother and she simply didn't listen... omg 😢💔 She failed her son, point blank. A year and 4 months is *NOT LONG ENOUGH* for what Brian Peck did to him!!! I also cried when they found all the child porn and a child's undergarment in Jason Handy's house and what he wrote in his journal. Absolutely disgusting and horrifying. And Boogie.... you say you can't speak on anyone's journey, but then you go and speak about Amanda? 🧐 If you can't speak on another's journey.... why are you conducting this interview? Why not go to the victims and ask them if they'd care to speak further about their journey? You literally praise Dan for the work he's done, including the success of the black actors. What about those black actors that were treated poorly and those that had to go to therapy? Screw them, right? Disgusting. You gave him the opportunity to paint himself in a better light. Dan and his fake tears played you like a fiddle and you don't even see it smh. The *ONLY THING* I can agree with is suggesting a therapist on set. Some kids might not know how to tell their parents they don't feel comfortable, safe, or they're not interested in the industry. A therapist might be able to pick up on subtle body language clues and can tell when something is wrong. Kids need a lot more protection than that though... asking parents to leave the room while the adults speak to them is highly unacceptable. No minors should be left alone in a room full of adults. This whole thing makes me sick... especially when Brian got a job at Disney after all of this. What in the actual fk?? I'm officially *DONE* with Disney! Hearing some of my favorite childhood celebrities defended a child predator is absolutely mind boggling to me. Seeing adults actually victim blame a *CHILD* and claiming the adult was the victim is in a whole different world of its own. I've caught small glimpses of shows on Nickelodeon here and there and I just never understood what people saw in them. They simply weren't funny, imo. I'm deeply sorry to each and every one of you that suffered at the hands of Dan Schneider, Brian Peck, Jason Handy, Cody Longo, Marty Weiss, and Ezell Channel. Watching this doc and this interview was hard, I can't even imagine having to actually live through it. You all have my deepest sympathy and I wish you all nothing but healing and happiness.

Brian Peck for example was gay therefore if you were a girl on one of his sets, you (probably) wouldn’t think heads nor tails of the guy because he just simply wasn’t going to target you. Anyways Dan gets to walk right up to the edge here without crossing the line, and unfortunately, I don’t think we’ll ever see him fully pay for what he’s done.

Two things I'd like to discuss: 1. Dan mentions there being parents on set that never mentioned anything to him but in the documentary two of the parents who spoke out describe being ostracized for their actions and eventually one of the child actors was inexplicably let go after their mother spoke out numerous times on their behalf. 2. How can a child feel comfortable expressing their genuine feelings to a therapist when they are on Dan's payroll and anything they say can be used as a reason to let them go and destroy their entire career before it's even begun? The therapist idea would only serve as a tool for Dan to preserve his self-image and as a means for manipulation to extract information from children who aren't willing to concede to Dan's every whim. This whole interview was so disgustingly disingenuous and insidious. Personally I believe Dan's actions after finding out what happened to Drake were his way of distancing himself from a known predator so he wouldn't be suspected as an accomplice to his crimes, he was most likely fully aware of what was happening.

"If I would have known back then, I would have changed it." You always knew what you were doing, Dan.

You knowingly SEPARATED children from their legal guardians, the ONLY ones who could (and you knew potentially WOULD, have they known) protect and remove them from that enviroment, JUST TO CONTINUE THE SHOW. A child can't emotionally take that information like an adult could. A child can't proceed to take action in that situation. THE PARENTS AND GUARDIANS needed to be primarily informed of that, and you deliberately withheld that from them. They only knew because of rumours and then the news. And guess what? Not only did it happen that time, but it did again. AND THEN AGAIN. 3 child predat*rs on the set, guess what (who) the common denominator is here!

Same that disappointed me. When I watched the video I got the feeling I think he is really sorry but the end when he answers what should have been different.... Terrible!!

[@Itslizzylulu]

Glad to see you exposing Dan for what he did to you and other kids. God Bless You. ❤

"Is there anything we haven't discussed?" .... dude...

[@stiffyluuuuv]

this comment got me 😭😭

This was a carefully crafted pr stunt. From having boogie ask him the questions to the questions being asked. He answers just enough questions to make a curated apology video but doesn’t answer for Amanda bynes you Ariana grande drake bell among many others. He needs to be under oath to answer the questions from a prosecutor who will not let him slide on these questions

[@baxatakbaxatak2014]

Or Jamie Lynn Spears. Or Bryan Hearne. Or Angelique Bates. Or….

[@Smithworks2]

Agree 💯💯

[@ladyclairee2424]

Scary to think maybe Boogie could’ve been black mailed to do this.. and why that could be is absolutely terrifying to think of the possibilities.

[@ladyclairee2424]

Just more corruption..

6:33 I just wanna mention that as an interviewer he has to be very careful to not constantly attack Dan because the goal is for Dan to spill the beans or as much as possible so for the interviewer to “down play” Dans actions it’s actually a smart tactic to trick Dan into thinking he’s actually on “his side” cuz no one wants to talk / be interviewed by someone who’s just attacking. They’re not gonna open up or say anything important so he has to pretend to be on Dans side. I highly recommend people watch “The behavioural analysis” take on this cuz he explains everything beautifully 😊

All this and he walked away with. 7 million dollars. He didnt deserve 7 cents. The FBI needs to investigate. The fact that Brian Peck got 16 months in jail and not 60 years is DISGUSTING

"We're not some people and we won't be remembered as that either" YESSS QUEEN YOU TELL EM

[@BigSolooo]

Honesty this was a good interview to expose where his mindset is at currently. If there was someone grilling him he’d be way more guarded. This was easy to see through!

[@BigSolooo]

Like this video was us watching you be triggered for 50 minutes. I feel like you’re too close to the situation to look at it from different angles. DAN WAS WRONG. But there are many ways to expose someone

[@Jowhfown]

I feel like he’s the kind of person that would get a therapist to have more control over the kids rather than help him. They’d probably hire a therapist to make predators lives easier.

[@Imbigdead]

The age old phrase. He's not sorry about what he did, he's just sorry he got caught

[@amylee8969]

I think he was more upset and butthurt about people not liking the content in his shows than what he put the kids through. It was more like “How dare you not like my shows that I worked hard to make, that hurts my feelings.”

[@ryanbailey3556]

This is just like in the hot tub when Amanda said “You wrote everything we’re saying right now!” 😂
