“Everything that happened on the shows Dan ran was carefully scrutinized by dozens of involved adults, and approved by the network,” a rep for Schneider said in a statement to Variety. “If there was an actual problem with the scenes that some people, now years later are ‘sexualizing,’ they would be taken down, but they are not, they are aired constantly all over the world today still, enjoyed by both kids and parents.”
Schneider also sat down for an interview published by The Hollywood Reporter.
The docuseries, which premiered on March 17 and 18, explores several shows created by Dan Schneider, who has since denied claims made against him in the documentary, including sexualizing children and cultivating a toxic work environment.
