O Lado Sombrio da TV Infantil

I just watched the first 2 episodes of the show, and it was a solid start for a Discovery documentary. I definitely learned a lot of new things about the controversy surrounding Dan Shneider and the people he let into his inner circle.

The first episode sets up how Dan became a success, and how he came to weild his power negatively over anyone except cis white men. I certainly have a lot more empathy for Amanda Bynes and the person she is today. The second episode dove deeper into the ways Dan and his on-set friends integrated sex into the children's shows in very non-sublte ways. Unfortunately, we are left on a cliff-hanger, as expected. However, even though we are introduced to the actor who was abused, I still can't wait for the next episode to drop so that we can hear them tell their truth.

I give it an 8, I even rewound the show as a spit take on some of things the grown child actors had to say about their experiences. After watching it, you won't think of pickles the same way.
