"The new documentary
Quiet on Set investigates children’s television station
Nickelodeon from the late 1990s to the early 2000s.
The five-part series highlights the abuse many child actors faced while working
for the station. The child stars on these shows – now adults in their 30s –
share their experiences working on the Nickelodeon sets.
The series raises questions about the protections in place for child stars,
both in and out of the film industry.
There are clear parallels between the lack of protection for working actors and
the exploitation of children who are the faces of popular YouTube, Instagram
and TikTok accounts. These children face no clear working hours, massive
opportunities for financial abuse, and insufficient protection from sexual
predators."
