Christy Carlson Romano says she rejected documentary from Quiet on Set network: 'These are trauma tourists'

Disney Channel alum Christy Carlson Romano says she rejected a documentary project from Investigation Discovery, the network behind 'Quiet on Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV': 'These are trauma tourists.'

The former Disney Channel star, who led series like Kim Possible and Even Stevens in the early 2000s, said on this week's upcoming episode of the podcast Mayim Bialik's Breakdown that ID previously approached her about appearing in a documentary about kids TV. In a wide-ranging conversation about child acting with Blossom stars Mayim Bialik and Jenna Von Oy, Romano said that she views Quiet on Set as exploitative and hopeless. Romano is pushing for concrete changes for young performers in the entertainment industry, because she believes that child actors will remain part of Hollywood for the foreseeable future.
