The Dan Schneider Controversy Explained

There was a time in the late ‘90s and ‘00s when Dan Schneider was one of the biggest producers in the industry. With his work on “All That,” “Drake & Josh,” “iCarly,” “Victorious,” and more, Schneider was instrumental in launching the careers of numerous Nickelodeon stars.
But between his on-set tantrums, his angry emails to child actors, and his toe tweets, Schneider found himself on the wrong side of the #MeToo movement. And while he might be ready for his Hollywood comeback, the jury is still out on whether or not the public is ready to accept him. Here’s the Dan Schneider controversy, explained.

Dan "show me your sole if you wanna get the role" Schneider

[mayflower]

I get why everyone blames Dan Schneider for a lot of things but the real villain is Viacom for hiring him, firing him, and then re-hiring him because the shows and the network was losing ratings. This is why I say Viacom is the devil

Dan "Show Your Feet Or You'll Be Out On The Street" Schneider

POV: You've watched like 10 Dan Schneider videos and still have no idea what the actual allegations about him are

[PureAmericanPatriot]

I wonder why do many young actors and actresses coming out of these children's shows on Nickolodeon and Disney end up with horrible mental health issues? I mean, its such a healthy environment.

Dan "getting gnarly with iCarly" Schneider

[katrabbit]

He only cares about losing his career... Not about the lives he's negatively effected.

[jayday]

His entire career can be summed up in 2 words: children's feet.

Dan “if she’s nine, she’s mine” Schneider

[michellecrocker]

Yeah no. He’s a brilliant show maker but we’ve never heard Schneider fully admit to the allegations or face any jail time for. He’s denying it and making excuses because he doesn’t want to do the right thing and admit the abuse because that would wreck any chance of a career.

Is it me or Nickelodeon went absolutely downhill once Dan Schneider got in trouble cause of his allegations? He made great shows during our childhood, I can named them all but after the allegations got leaked he was completely got shelled by Nickelodeon. Nickelodeon now relies on SpongeBob which is really bad, the network is on a downward spiral.

Dan "Show Me Your Foot Or Your Career Is Kaput" Schneider

[rjaywilliams]

this guy belongs in jail for what he put those child actors thru

[angelaholmes]

Dan Schneider is a total creep I can't believe he thinks he deserves a comeback after all the pain he's caused 🤢🤮😡🤬

[TheeRealJesus]

Generally speaking, adults who spend all of their time working with kids and they're not educators or therapists, at best are pervy/creepy and at worst well...

[thatnerdyblackgirl]

This comment section should be proof that this man career will never have a redemption arc.

[wooof.]

The podcast behind the blinds goes way into depth into this and his other creepy industry friends on their patron episode 🤢🤢🤢

[projectamis]

Too much foot stuff in those shows. Ugh.

[mikezinza]

I had no idea about any of this I only know about him as an actor on Head of the Class
