Drake Bell Calls Nickelodeon’s ‘Quiet on Set’ Response ‘Pretty Empty’

Drake Bell gave his first interview after docuseries 'Quiet on Set,' where he alleged sexual abuse from former Nickelodeon dialogue coach Josh Peck.

Shortly before the docuseries aired, a Nickelodeon spokesperson told Rolling Stone in a statement: “Now that Drake Bell has disclosed his identity as the plaintiff in the 2004 case, we are dismayed and saddened to learn of the trauma he has endured, and we commend and support the strength required to come forward.” The network spokesperson added: “Though we cannot corroborate or negate allegations of behaviors from productions decades ago, Nickelodeon as a matter of policy investigates all formal complaints as part of our commitment to fostering a safe and professional workplace environment free of harassment or other kinds of inappropriate conduct. Our highest priorities are the well-being and best interests not just of our employees, casts, and crew, but of all children, and we have adopted numerous safeguards over the years to help ensure we are living up to our own high standards and the expectations of our audience.”
