Dan Schneider has officially broken his silence after he was accused of “sexualizing” child stars on various Nickelodeon shows. “Everything that happened on the shows Dan ran was carefully scrutinized by dozens of involved adults, and approved by the network,” a rep for Schneider, 58, told Variety on Monday. “If there was an actual problem with the scenes that some people, now years later are ‘sexualizing,’ they would be taken down, but they are not, they are aired constantly all over the world today still, enjoyed by both kids and parents.” “Remember, all stories, dialogue, costumes and makeup were fully approved by network executives on two coasts,” the statement continued. “A standards and practices group read and ultimately approved every script, and programming executives reviewed and approved all episodes.” “In addition, every day on every set, there were always parents and caregivers and their friends watching filming and rehearsals,” the rep said, adding that had there been any issues, “they would have been flagged and blocked by this multilayered scrutiny.” The statement concluded: “Unfortunately, some adults project their adult minds onto kids’ shows, drawing false conclusions about them.”The Post reached out to Schneider for additional comment.Schneider’s statement comes after the producer — who worked on shows such as “The Amanda Show,” “All That” and “iCarly” — was accused of sexualizing child stars such as Ariana Grande and Jamie Lynn Spears in a new ID docuseries called “Quiet on Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV.”The Investigation Discovery docuseries, which can be streamed on Max, aired Sunday with Part 2 set to air on Monday at 9 p.m.
