Josh Peck Speaks Out Following Drake Bell's 'Quiet On Set' Abuse Allegations

Josh Peck has spoken out for the first time following the release of the explosive docuseries, "Quiet On Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV." In the Investigation Discovery show, Drake Bell opened up for the first time about the abuse he suffered as a child actor at the hands of his dialogue coach, Brian Peck. Drake and Josh starred in the hit Nickelodeon show "Drake & Josh" for four seasons from 2004 to 2008. Following the documentary's release, many people took to Josh's social media to ask him why he hadn't spoken. On Thursday, the "Oppenheimer" star went on Instagram to address the show and publicly support the survivors. "I finished the 'Quiet On Set' documentary and took a few days to process it. I reached out to Drake privately but want to give my support for the survivors who were brave enough to share their stories of emotional and physical abuse on Nickelodeon sets with the world," he wrote. "Children should be protected. Reliving this publicly is incredibly difficult, but I hope it can bring healing for the victims and their families as well as necessary change to our industry." Drake also spoke out in defense of Josh on Wednesday, telling fans in a TikTok video that they had spoken. "I just want you guys to know that he has reached out to me, and it's been very sensitive," Drake said. "But he has reached out to talk with me and help me work through this. And has been really, really great. So just wanted to let you guys know that and to take it a little easy on him."

Dan clearly told him what to ask. Note : When the interviewer began talking about the writing room, Dan put his hand up to stop him from talking and then took over the interview. He just apologized for whatever, but nothing was allowed to be asked specifically. It wasn't a real interview; it was Dan's way of coming out first saying...Don't look at me! I am a victim of this too! But everyone caught on to his lame attempt at directing, writing, producing and editing his own interview.

I don't think a high profile person like Dan really needs more jail time than that. The purpose of prison system is to suppress bad behavior from individuals who are a net negative to society. When an influential and productive member of society is locked away for that long it really doesn't do anyone any favors other than fulfilling one's personal spite. He didn't physically harm any of his actors and gave them a rewarding acting career at the end of the day.

[@Rey-yo6ts]

@@BRBallin1 Well it seems he did physically harm Drake Bell (we're talking about Brian Peck right?). The prison system isn't for what you're describing. It's punishment to deter potential criminals from enacting their crimes. Holding them accountable. Some billionaire murdering people doesn't mean he should get a slap on the rest because in prison, less money is being circulated. They should be in prison for the actions they committed and those they hurt. You can talk about all this "productive member of society" crap, but when someone does something horrible to you, I bet you'd cry if that person got out with a slap on the wrist because they're "productive" and "useful."

@@KZbinr1-c6vnope, evidently as soon as he got out he immediately got a job at Disney working on sweet life of Zach and Cody

[@bane3991]

The reason they say allegations is because the court process is a bit complicated. Just because youre admitting guilt, doesnt mean youre admitting to everything and how it happened. For example, i was wrongfully accused of something when i was a teenager. Never happened. But i pleaded guilty because youll need to pay a lot out in lawyer fees and if you some how lose youll get an even bigger punishment. People think you need a ton of evidence to be found guilty and thats not true, its randomized. People are currently sitting in prison for crimes they did not commit. We hear cases of guys being cleared 20yrs later after it found out they didnt actually do it. You run a huge risk by letting it go to trial. Every single thing Drake said could 100 percent be true and i do believe his word. But the court system is complex and not straight forward. If he was given a longer sentence he would have taken it to trial and possibly have gotten off. But they gave him a sentence that youre still punished for, but youre less likely to accept taking it to trial.

Drake, being the kid he was at the time believed it, and the dad, wanting to give him room to breathe believed it too. Plus, Brian was really good at pretending to be a nice trusting guy (like all abusers are).

[@outinsider]

He did not apologize to them (Dan Schneider). He apologized to a press junket, and even then, Jeannette McCurdy wrote a book two years ago, and it should have happened then, even after this non-apology. If Dan wants to improve, then he will make the conscious efforts to modify his behavior and seek help. As for Drake Bell in support of Josh Peck, it is hard to speak up to begin with in an abuse-enabling culture like ours. It's even harder to respond.

Can't help but admire Drake, honestly, Josh has a huge reckoning to face how he treated Drake in recent years. No matter what he said, they were close enough to be considered as official friends, they started off with Amanda Bynes, to creating their own show together. It's not like they met on the Drake and Josh show and never hung out, there's pictures all over social media of them hanging out during and after the series ended. Then when Josh got a whiff of the elevation of getting the big gigs, he let it get to his head and it showed when Drake was going through his low period of accusations that Josh was not there for Drake. Josh does not deserve Drake, however I think Drake would appreciate to still have some friendship with Josh, with that, they certainly need to figure it out on their own. With sincerity I am hoping for the best for them, I grew up watching their show and they seemed like they were great celebrities who didn't let Hollywood get to their heads. Amazed that Drake went through this and didn't go into a more self destructing path that is too common for Hollywood/celebrity children, he's turned out to be a very gracious guy.

[@Fawn123]

Yeah and I’m sure Josh in his girly teen voice, dressing up as women, and always being the butt of the joke was never abused either??? Give me a break. He hides the pain in his eyes. If more people spoke up, it could make more of an impact and get these guilty people behind bars, where they should be.

[@hyperbolicathletes]

Josh being the “fat kid” probably saved him from the sexual abuse, but definitely not the emotional abuse of the fat jokes

[@Fawn123]

@@hyperbolicathletes One would think. I really don’t think anyone was immune though. Just bc he wasn’t fit like the others doesn’t mean there wasn’t a creep who would consider him his type, as sick as that sounds.

[@notdylanspack]

It’s shocking that Taran Kilam wrote a letter of support for Brian Peck. Seeing the dune buggy episode of Drake and Josh is gonna hit different for sure.

[@Dreeraven]

Devastating to see the cycle of abuse continue given child endangerment charges Drake pled guilty to within the past couple of years. It is important to support survivors even when it is not convenient- yes this means supporting Drake coming out against Brian Peck, AS WELL AS supporting Drake’s victim coming out about against Drake.

[@getoutusedition]

How many hours did Schnider's publicist work on his 'heart felt' statements and apologizes.

[@liliesofthefield5310]

I don't trust Josh, I don't believe anything he does is genuine, of course he reached out to Drake, his silence would have been career suicide, he does what he needs to, to look good for the public

[@James-dz7ek]

The guy was charged, arrested and sent to prison these are more then just allegations.

[@KeybladeScar]

Personally I don’t trust anything Josh says either the dude became a douche once he lost all that weight and left Drake out of everything I mean come on even out of his own wedding he kept him out idk to me I used to really love Josh but even back in 2018 i unfollowed cause it’s like he doesn’t even know who Drake is he just left his ass behind on everything Josh is sketchy af I can feel it

[@MarkDanger777]

It's so depressing to see drake and josh now compared to when they were teenagers. No matter how happy they look, they still looks really despressed all the time.

[@churchyjr]

Watch an episode of Head of the Class how Dan Schneider yells in a hallway with the teacher about why he acts the way he does. Almost insinuating his real personality.

[@switch1237]

This is deeply disturbing

[@RapFanatic4ever]

Josh I hope and pray that you’re doing ok . . No child should have to endure the abuse you did . This weird is full of sick weirdos

[@JS-ls8iu]

yea like the girl he took advantage of and went to court for in 2021.

[@corypham8089]

I feel so bad for his dad if I was in his shoes I would never forgive his mother. He knew it from the start and tried to prevent it only for his mother not to care.

[@klutzmtg2310]

After watching the docuseries I feel terrible for what Drake went through. That his father did everything he could to protect Drake but Brian had such power and influence over him that he actively shoved the man not only protecting Drake but other kids on set out of the way but even convinced Drake’s mother that he was a safe person to be around even after Drake’s father explicitly warned her NEVER to leave Drake alone with Brian. It’s so sad and the way Brian was caught is even more sickening. I can’t and won’t claim Dan was sexually abusive because there is no evidence of the matter which is what people have led me to believe for years that he was hurting these children in terrible ways. I think Dan was sexist, early in his career perhaps racist or at the minimum racially insensitive. He was mean, he was rude, he was not controlled and not reined in. He knows he was a bad boss. I do think the fact he reached out to Drake when Brian got arrested was a good thing you can give him credit for. He may not have stood up against Brian in court but he never defended him either and I’m sure Dan really did feel awful that something like that happened on one of his sets. Josh doesn’t have anything to apologize for but I think him reaching out to Drake privately was completely reasonable. Whatever he actually said isn’t our place to know about. Regardless of what Josh has said or done in the past years I believe that he really does care about Drake and genuinely wanted to make sure that he was doing alright after openly admitted his abuse on camera for the first time.

[@mikelachey824]

Feel more sad for the 12 year old girl that Drake Bell groomed for years and was caught and convicted of doing. Feel bad because all those years of that shit, only earned that roach, 2 years probation. This is most likely all a lie. This guy is a straight up narcassist and sociopath. When he faced jail, he produced a kid nobody knew he had to use to stay out of jail. He's a predators, predator and still trying to groom people

[@Elena-er7zp]

How are they allegations when the criminal was found guilty and served prison time? Those are no longer allegations.

[@jessn7034]

That was absolutely heartbreaking to watch him talk about what happened. I could see the hurt and trauma in his eyes. This Dan creep paved the way , he created environments for predators to act out. He normalized sexual innuendos etc towards kids, he made it ok, he should be held accountable as well.

[@yankeegirl3380]

Wow. Drake is so much the bigger person!!! A lot to people would tell others to f off. Not Drake. It seems that Drake is growing and changing and healing. Drake's beautiful brown eyes, while there's pain, they're bigger and have hope and clarity. God bless you, Drake. You're one of the bravest men i have ever seen. God is healing you. May GOD bless you and all survivors of abuse. 🙏❤️🙏

[@Impregnanteithmycrushsbaby]

I wish i could hug him rn 😢❤

[@BigRigsAdventures]

Like if you thought, Brian Peck was Josh’s dad in real life

[@JakeLlavore]

*3:20* I realized that’s *BooG!e* as *T-Bo* from the *iCarly Original Series.*

[@jeniferclemente1252]

Bryan Peck should’ve gotten a life sentence for what he did and Dan should’ve turned himself in to show he means the “apology”. But we all know it was staged to make him look like a “good guy” even though it’s obviously fake. He doesn’t mean a word he says and had a former actor from iCarly to the “interview” For all we know, Dan wrote and edited the whole thing and should still be put in jail. But, justice will come when God punishes those demons for what they did to those former child actors and the parents will receive judgement too for not protecting them when knew what was going on….

[@ashleybosschannel24]

GOD BLESS YOU GUYS STAY STRONG THIS DOCUSERIES HAD ME IN TEARSSSSS I FEEL YOUR PAIN. I LOVE YOU ALL❤

[@ezjoel]

Why is T-bo in this interview?

[@Dogmanmike22]

T-bo standing in business 😂

[@gabeguzman9478]

To be fair Josh didnt know he was until he said something about it in that interview and he understands now

[@TheVibez_1]

Hearing Dan talk is pointless this man trying make up for screwing up peoples life is crazy.

[@K1NG0FW0LV35]

Josh dropped Drake like a bad habit as soon as the drama happened... I guess alot of us did the same... Not really looking on the other side of the coin.... Anyone who judges Josh for cutting ties with Drake is hypocrite... It is not our place to forgive Josh... Yes... We as fans were hurt by this... We grew up watching these guys how could we not be hurt? But it is not our place to judge... It is not our place to forgive... We are not the victims... We have no voice in this matter! This is something fans need to understand.

[@whimsicallady9759]

I feel for any child actors wtf why and how does this always happen? How is there no oversight?

[@Kyla21Diamond]

I feel bad for them. This isn’t just be shared with a small group of people it’s being shared to the world.

[@ni9ward222]

Dan Schneider does not seem apologetic at all. . . Perhaps that's because he knows he already got away with what he did and this is just lip service at this point

[@megaladonrockband4855]

I hope Josh is genuine in reconnecting with Drake .

[@esterdrass4964]

Question: How is it Drake's father sensed something was very off and disturbing about Brian Peck but those who literally worked side by side with him (Dan Schneider) did not? Hollywood likes to look after the child *** abusers apparently. 41 actors wrote letters to support Brian? It was a child actor that sensed the red flags of Brians strange relationship with a famous serial killer? A killer whose victims included minors? No one noticed because no one cared and that seems to be motto in Hollywood and its need to change and this is a start and kudos to those that spoke up and spoke out about this. It's so brave of them all to do this documentary and it's needed for us all to be aware.

[@thaithaiox]

for anyone wondering, do you rmemeber the pickle guy from the amanda show? That is Brian Peck. Hes been allowed around young children even after what he was arrested for also btw

[@leilaradovicyay16]

Im glad they are talking to each other, 😊

[@dicedice3104]

SMH wow if you did not like to be a child star you can't believe all the things you hear

[@PAFloridian]

Dan Schneider feels bad cause he got caught. That pervert needs to be imprisoned

[@JAndrewM]

He doesn’t feel bad at all. In the end he made all that money, doesn’t have any remorse whatsoever.

[@tailedgates9]

I don't follow social media, but I always thought Josh was trying to distance himself from the industry after the show ended and just wanted to focus on his own stuff. If he DID know about what was going on but said nothing about it, that is sad. But I don't blame the guy for wanting to get away. If my information is outdated, feel free to correct me. And to Drake, I wish you the best, man, you deserve it after all of the crap you've gone through...

[@WolfNippleChips71]

Dans interview was 100% staged. He knew the questions before hand.

[@kayslyricvids4621]

Hes not sorry he’s only sorry cuz he got caught I feel so bad for all the actors they didn’t deserve that

Just wait until Jenett McCurdy story.😔

[@trollingisasport]

I can't believe Rob Schneider and Josh Peck did those things!

[@piggypigpig5153]

Josh Peck Brian Peck I thought they were related! geesh what are the odds of same last name 😅

[@davidmason4411]

I blame the parents for most of this mess. Leaving your kids alone with pedos for a paycheck isn’t parenting. Every kid that’s ever been sexually assaulted from Corey to Josh has one thing in common. Their parents were more interested in a paycheck than their kids. They knew that certain people were acting inappropriately and they let it go. That goes for the parents who left their kids at Neverland or let them go to parties and sleep over with adults. If it was a school teacher or janitor asking for this time with your kids or sleeping over you’d be all over it. When it’s a celebrity or producer then you dress them up and perfume them up for the perpetrators. Money makes it all okay.

[@scottmoody7839]

16 months in prison, nah how about a 100 years and $50 million..

[@sierracathcart8489]

If people don’t want to relive it or never happened to them. They don’t have to speak out. That’s it.

[@williamestep4623]

I've been trying to plead for Drake's innocence for years but nobody wants to listen to this guy this guy doesn't know what he's talking about he needs help he needs another sedation.
