Devon Werkheiser, Lindsey Shaw and Daniel Curtis Lee, the previous stars of Ned’s Declassified Faculty Survivor Information, have apologized for making a sexual joke when requested in regards to the Quiet on Set: The Darkish Facet of Children TV docuseries throughout a TikTok stay.
The previous stars have been known as out by Drake Bell and slammed on-line for making mild of the abuse.
Werkheiser mentioned on the trio’s podcast Thursday that he was joking with Lee, and never speaking in regards to the documentary, which he claims he has not but seen.
“Should you haven’t seen the clip, when you haven’t seen what’s occurring, we have been on a TikTok Reside being requested to touch upon the ‘Quiet on Set’ documentary, which we hadn’t seen, and an excellent s—t joke got here out that was referenced at Daniel [Curtis Lee] and appeared like I used to be speaking about Drake [Bell],” Werkheiser mentioned.
“We f—ked up. I get it. We hadn’t seen the doc and everybody was asking us for his or her for our opinions on it.”
He went on to say that the group had “no clue” in regards to the “magnitude” of abuse Bell suffered by the actions of former dialect coach Brian Peck.
“Now now we have watched it … I get it,” Werkheiser added. “If I had simply watched — particularly that third episode — after which watched us joking like that, I might be like, ‘Are they sociopaths? Is one thing fallacious with them?’”
Werkheiser added, “I do know it seems like I’m laughing at this and I f—king wasn’t, however I do know what it seems like, and that Drake noticed it … yeah,” Werkheiser clarified. “I simply felt so f—king terrible, realizing that Drake noticed us in that context.”
Within the collection, Bell mentioned that Peck began molesting him within the early 2000s when he was 15 and dealing at Nickelodeon.
Earlier within the week, one other Nickelodeon star who participated in Quiet on Set: The Darkish Facet of Children, mentioned he wasn’t impressed with former producer Dan Schneider’s video addressing the doc’s claims. .
Alexa Nikolas, who performed Nicole Bristow on Zoey 101 and appeared in Quiet on Set, mentioned the video “was not an apology.”
“When somebody doesn’t personally come to you and apologize, it’s not an apology,” she mentioned. “Should you hear about it by means of different folks, it’s probably not an apology proper? An apology is to the person who you harm. That’s what an apology is for.”
