"This is Paris" was a tear jerker for me. it started out so upbeat and "lookk at me" but turned progressively harder and darker. when the over of "girls just wanna have fun" started playing, I just lost it. Her entire early career now seems like a giant "fuck you" to the ones who abused her in her teens.

The Britney Spears doc was a tough watch as seeing the treatment she suffered as a young star was reprehensible and wouldn’t be tolerated today. For example, grown adult male reporters asking her if she’s a virgin and if her breasts are real at 16-17.

Regarding Surviving R Kelly—there is no such thing as “underaged women.” They were girls.

"Quiet on Set" was fascinating, but a tough watch, I hope that the former teen actors are healing from their trauma.

Quiet on Set is such a good show. Given that Nickalodeon was something I grew up watching the shows but behind the scenes decades later I just feel bad for them because they grew up in a toxic environment

[jswjanjan]

There is no such thing as an underage woman. That's a child. Ever seen the term 'underage man'? No. You never will.

I loved watching Demi’s documentary. It was eye opening and almost relatable as someone who struggled with addiction and trauma. She was really lucky to survive it was very scary to know that.
Also, the quiet behind set had me in tears 😭 it was heartbreaking when drake’s story was revealed I couldn’t believe how people sided with his abuser.

Farrah's Story, Shiny Happy People, I Am: Celine Dion

[Newkids]

I have watched Quiet on the Set and I really feel very very sorry for all the kid actors that went through this. it's shocking. You know you grow up and you know you watch these shows but you know behind the scenes and you know off camera. shocking now. I can't even like literally watch these shows anymore because my heart just literally sinks for them all what they went through is heartbreaking

I’d like to see a documentary about Ellen Degenerous.

[bigal]

I took my wife to see Anderson show in Vegas. It was good.

[dasiareed]

The Demi documentary made her look worse in my opinion considering she said she was clean even when she wasn’t

[debralazarus]

i cried on britney she doesnt deserve this

[kniivess]

whats crazy is the doc “ An Open Secret” came out 7 years before the Quiet On Set series and talked about Brian Pecks predatory behaviors as well as the many other Hollywood creepers and tne other child actors; grown up and long forgotten- whose lives have been permanently destroyed just trying to live their dreams.. incredibly sad but VERY good.

[kamsismith]

Quiet on Set, The Boy Band Con, Milli Vanilli, I Am Heath Ledger and Amy.

[dasiareed]

Quiet on set was a lot to unpack when I watched it

[cwalker]

Underage women are just girls that’s #1!!!

Demi makes me so frustrated 🤦🏽‍♀️ and seeing the clip just made me angry all over again

On another note, Quiet on Set was a hard hard watch but what’s worst is that last episode was not disclosed to some of the contributors and again the survivors were left out of conversations concerning solutions.

[lisafoos]

Drake Bell's dad did everything possible to protect his child.
I feel like that must be devastating for him. : (

[LaLayla]

re: R Kelly, they were GIRLS, not underage women.

[araasis]

I don't know if it would count, but "We Need to Talk About Cosby" was one of the best celebrity documentaries I've ever seen.
