Nonetheless, he claims the producers pulled a bait-and-switch maneuver on him … allegedly hitting him with some footage that they requested him to react to, which was unsettling.
MS says … “They ambushed me. They never told me what this documentary was really about. And so they showed me a video of something that I couldn’t believe was on Nickelodeon. And I said, ‘Well, let’s stop the tape right here. What are we doing?'”
Once they lastly spilled the beans that the doc can be diving into actor Drake Bell‘s teenage sexual assault by Nick dialogue coach Brian Peck — together with accusations in opposition to Dan Schneider — Marc says he threw within the towel and walked out it fully.
6 weeks later, Marc says he was instructed he was nixed from the doc. However then, 2 weeks after that, he says he was instructed he was within the first a part of it ‘trigger he spoke positively about Nick.
In his portion of the doc, Marc makes clear that every one the allegations being levied occurred after his time on the community, when he hosted “Double Dare” from 1986-1993.
A 5th episode for ‘Quiet on Set’ — chronicling the fallout and aftermath — is about to air April 7.
