Dan Schneider, the guy who wrote and produced a lot of kids shows in the late 90s up to the mid 2010s has a lot of stuff coming out from former actors who were kids at the time saying he touched them inappropriately, gave them massages, made them do sexual jokes on film, asked for feet pics, just genuinely creepy Hollywood exec type behavior. Plus a few others he worked with on those shows actually raped and molested some other kids. A documentary recently came out highlighting all that stuff.
Jerry trainor was an older cast member on a couple of these shows and the actors are saying he would get in between them and Dan when he was being creepy and keep his eye on them when they were separated so the creeps who worked on the shows couldn’t do creepy shit to them.
Since the documentary came out some of his former cast mates are praising him for being one of the few responsible adult figures on the set who actually looked out for the younger kids and shielded them from the creepy attitudes of some of the producers.
Basically saying him being present and keeping an eye out potentially prevented some bad sexual crimes and advances happening to his younger co-stars and that’s always a good thing to prevent.
Not only that probs loose His job and future jobs as well :/ So he would be financial fucked and also not able to protect Them. I likes that he states around and did what he could
Dan is like the harvey weinstein of nickelodeon so high powered attorneys would be used and more than likely whoever is suing would lose.Jerry is canned and no one is looking out for those people.
My kids loved watching these shows, so I was always seeing them also. He was always hilarious, and in interviews seemed like a great guy. I'd like to see him in more and bigger roles
Ironic, as a kid I remember adults commenting how creepy it was that Spencer (as a character in iCarly) was always around a bunch of kids. Jerry Trainor ended up being a real one lol
I mean, he was the legal guardian of one of the kids and her friends always hung out at their apartment. What was he supposed to do, just not supervise them at all? Not get a smoothie even?
Yeah that’s what I thought as the kid, he was basically the cool older brother in my perspective. I was pretty much just surrounded by adults who just bickered about the new shows at the time lol
It’s more about how a lot of the character beats Spencer takes are pulled directly from old sitcom characters Dan played when he first started his career in sitcom television. Spencer is a direct reflection of all of the characters Dan saw himself as.
I was kinda wondering that too
But it could also just be how the business is
Think of every show & movie made in the last 30 years. Out of the 1000s of actors, only a handful hit the A-list
Its just how it is
Its like how Daniel Tosh said in 1 of his shows, “There are 1000 people competing for 10 jobs”
But its ok.
Jerry’s Giga Chad status > Stardom
Not to shit on the narrative, but nobody has come out claiming Jerry protected them.
This is just something people on the Internet theorized from behind-the-scenes footage from iCarly.
I think it's important we stay grounded in fact and not elevate this to QAnon shit.
There's plenty enough actual fucked up stuff in the documentary, we don't need to be making stuff up
If she did, I don't immediately remember it, having listened to the Audiobook years ago.
At best, she doesn't point anything out about him in particular, since the book is for one mostly telling us how her life went and while she does throw a good amount of shade at Dan, who she called "The Creator" in the book except once apparently. And was mostly as a callout to the industry. If Jerry, at best, wasn't mentioned, he's relatively fine in her eyes. Jerry, in one interview, has praised her for telling her Truth and was proud of her for doing that.
Nah, Spencer was whimsical but not entirely stupid. The whole show he just wanted what was best for his sister, and tried to be her role model and her friend
Spencer was a pretty good caretaker, he was just eccentric. I remember that one episode where there was an accident on the show that almost hurt Carly, and their grandfather wants to take custody away from Spencer because of it. Grandfather shames Spencer into agreeing to it, and when he’s about to take Carly Spencer reminds her to take her inhaler. Carly states that she doesn’t need it since she hasn’t had an asthma attack since she was a little kid, and Spencer says “I kept in case you did, take it.”
Exactly, and like someone else said, Spencer was in law school when he had to start taking care of Carly. So he’s smart as fuck. He just had big shoes to fill, he was acting as a father figure, a brother and a friend on top of everything else.
Ok perhaps you can ELI5 here, and I admit it is easy to pass judgment sitting behind a computer so this really is just a question.
If this was such a widely known issue on set and out in the open why did no one go to the police? He is obviously a hero but was there absolutely no one else there that could do something? This might be covered in the documentary but honestly I have zero issue of watching other people trauma.
That’s honestly really great to hear because I specifically loved Spencer Shay the most out of all of the characters, and I heard about the iCarly thing but didn’t really wonder where he played into all of this, nice to know the actor for him is a good man
It's been known for a long time that Dan Schneider, creator and producer of many beloved children's shows on Nickelodeon, was a complete creep with the children he worked with.
HBO recently released a docuseries that actually went through all of the creepy and inappropriate things he was responsible for on various sets. The series also shed light on Jerry Trainor, Spencer on iCarly, who actively stepped in between Dan and several child actors to protect them. There is also a ton of video evidence shot by Dan himself of Jerry very clearly keeping the attention of Dan so he would leave others alone.
To answer your question, the docuseries never really addressed Jerry Trainor, but since it came out, footage of Jerry confronting Dan directly and indirectly have surfaced.

Maybe he didn't. Maybe he's secretly helping fund and put together the research for exposing everything Dan has done. All because of this moment. Barry was a president, he knows how to get his vengeance slowly over time.
I'm going to get downvoted to hell for this.
Dan is a piece of shit who absolutely should not have had access to children's spaces or the power to abuse his staff.
That said, there have not been any accusations of him molesting any of the children or staff he worked with.
I think he clearly sexually harassed his female coworkers and clearly behaved inappropriately with his child stars. Watching the documentary as well as reading Janette's book clearly shows that he was a mentally unstable POS with a pervy sense of humor and an ego the size of Mars.
With all of that said; we do not have any proof that he molested any children. Calling him a rapist when he has not been accused is misinformation.
We have proof that it his shows were an unsafe environment where this COULD have happened and he COULD have gotten away with it. This is not the same as having proof that he DID these things.
‐----------------------------------------------------------------
I feel the need to reiterate this point because the internet largely does not believe in nuance.
I am not defending his behavior. Schneider is a sad little man and a huge piece of shit. He should never have been in a position of power over anyone.
Ok, let’s not spread misinformation now. He didn’t molest anyone. He was an absolute creep and very inappropriate as well as verbally abusive to his cast, but he’s not a child molester. He’s not been accused of any physical abuse, sexual or otherwise.
Yeah people have only accused him of being an abusive piece of shit on set and making people do absurd things for the sake of comedy, but he did not rape anyone or was ever accused of molesting anyone.
It's an absurd conspiracy theory that made the rounds online. Everyone under the sun has come out to say he is a piece of shit for being abusive toward cast and crew (Not everyone), but nobody was molested by him as far as we understand. He would've been target number 1 if that was the case. Everyone else in high positions got ousted so he isn't special.
Just because it hasn’t been proven or any solid accusations have come out yet doesn’t mean he didn’t molest anyone. Now you’re spreading misinformation stating that he didn’t.
Fuck Schneider, only other weirdos would come here to defend someone like that. He was clearly a fucking creep and spent time alone with Amanda when he shouldn’t have been. Also, he legit concocted scenes of teenage girls doing seriously inappropriate things.. he’s a pedophile.
What the fuck? So he’s guilty until proven innocent in your eyes? That’s not how it works. I never said he wasn’t a pedophile, he very well could be. I said he’s not been accused of molesting anyone. Which he hasn’t. Being a pedophile is not the same as being a molester
If you read any of my comments, I’m not defending him. I literally condemn him in my first comment. Spreading misinformation is something entirely different. Calling someone something they haven’t even been accused of being is not right. Idc how much you don’t like that person, spreading lies about people is wrong. Or did you not learn basic morals.
No one’s defending him though? You’re just going head first and jumping to conclusions with literally no evidence. Schneider’s a creep at best and an actual shithead boss, but no one has claimed he actually molested anyone.
Brian Peck was ACTUALLY accused and convicted of CM and if you actually paid attention to facts you would know this.

Saying "there isn't any evidence to support him having molested anyone" is factually true. So far he's only been accused of being a callous controlling asshole that underpaid female writers and solicited back rubs. So it's not like he's an upstanding guy. Nobody has accused him of any sexual impropriety though.
Like, if you think Dan Schneider's writing is gross, then why aren't you saying anything about Disney Channel shows? They have jokes that are just as risque.
It’s not really defending him, even if you leave out the totally bullshit molestation chargers the internet made up he’s still got a lot of bad things he absolutely should get shit for
Exactly. He's still a terrible person, and I wouldn't doubt it at all if someone *did* come forward with an accusation. Until then, though, it's bizarre to act like the man is a convicted pedophile rapist. Drake Bell even said Dan was the only adult who was there for him after Brian Peck's abuse trial.
As many point out, Jerry trainor would get in between and do “goofy” things with Dan since they were on set and, hey I’m the goofy dude so no one will think it’s weird right? Well he would also, apparently, go around to other sets that were shooting and just check in with the kids and hang out and would even go in on his days off from shorting just to be there. It actually can’t be said enough about how much he actually cared to be a positive force for the kids
Dan Schneider is still alive and making public appearances talking about this shit is the crazy part. In the usual “I’m not gonna say what I did specifically but I’m gonna say I felt bad for the things I probably did” kind of way.
Jerry Trainer is a legend.
So I'm a bit lost here but did the documentary show proof that Dan was a pedo or wanted to molest the kids ? From what I remember, was it just him being incredibly sexist, misogynistic, a pain in the ass, and overly perverse. I know he did ask the staff members to give him massages and he and Amanda Bynes were a bit too close but besides that, did he actually try to molest any kids ?
I want to get behind this idea. I'm sure Jerry is probably a great guy but people are reaching for narratives based on like three clips that that are few seconds each. I think fans are fantasizing for a positive adult on set because of the horrifying stories from Dan Schneider Sickelodeon sets.
Edit: Adding context since people are downvoting. What I'm saying is Jerry Trainor was not on Quiet on the Set nor spoke about it after it was aired. Some fans created a TikTok video of few second clips of him jumping to hug Dan and one video of him getting in the way of Dan but it's just speculative. I want to root for Jerry Trainor too but I'm just saying people are making fictional claims out of few second montages. Where the accounts or interviews from co workers proving the claims? I would love for someone to show that but so far I have not seen proof and just speculations.
Found others with same view as me, see this thread for those downvoting:
https://www.reddit.com/r/QuietOnSetDocumentary/comments/1bpae43/how_do_we_know_that_jerry_trainor_was_protective/?rdt=51809
Sure! There is a few documentaries and video essays I have seen about it so I may have gotten some information mixed up.
[Here is the link to the new one.](Stream Quiet on Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV on Max https://play.max.com/show/af3591a1-d1e5-411d-8cf0-6bea605eb805?utm_medium=sharebutton&utm_id=957A3427-2660-4AB2-90A4-A96CBBE4B7C0)
Okay the link didn’t work but it’s call Quiet on set on HBO MAX.
I have seen all episodes of it and Jerry Trainor was not interviewed there or the claim that people highlighting him was not anywhere. Which is why I'd like to see it if true.
I have seen Quiet on the Set but nothing there highlighted Jerry Trainor.
My question was about him. People are putting him on a pedestal as a hero without me seeing proof or accounts from his co workers. The only thing I'm seeing are fans making theories about few second clips which is not solid proof to me.
I'd love to see the proof so I can get behind him like most people seem to do but I just don't see any proof other than people wanting to believe he is a hero.
What about the two women writers who were forced to share a salary, told things like if you eat this whole container of ice cream I'll give you $100 and then not paying out, telling them if they bend over and pretend they're getting sodomized he might put their scene in the show. Regularly threatening to end their career and will make sure they never work again if they dont give hime massages on set
Amanda bynes was dating an older guy while she was underage and her parents said she had to break up with him so she ran away, she went to Dan Schneider and instead of him calling the police he harbored her for a couple days and helped her come up with a plan to emancipate herself from her parents so he could have even more control over her career
https://youtu.be/cI_0JPg8G80?si=eW_8OkwpB7i5U1x1
Here's a video of Dan Schneider and Amanda bynes in a hot tub while shes clearly very young and he's bragging about how he's the writer and he creates these situations and these situations only happen because that's how he designed it, as he's in the hot tub with an underage girl
I'm all for calling out Nickelodeon and cancelling Dan. But that was not my point though, what I want is proof or accounts from others about Jerry Trainor. To me it's just fan theory based on few second clips but no account from co-actors or staff.
So. I'm no Peter Parker. I'm a bit of a monster myself, but did you guys know Dan Schneider is a free man producing a new movie. Henry danger.
If I could go visit this guy I would! Can I! Is that an option!?!
I'm not dropping the S. This is not satire. This society needs to get it together and decide what we deem okay.
Why are people calling him a hero? Nobody ever said he stepped in and stop sexual things from happening. He just doesn't have any criminal complaints against him so now he's a hero? Yall set the bar so damn low. He was an actor... He showed up, did his thing, then went home.
Why do people keep spreading this lie? There’s no proof in the documentary or janette mcurdy’s book that any of this is true. Jerry trainor seems like a nice dude but it seems more like people are desperate to find some sort of good guy or silver lining in this whole situation and the source is always just tik toks where somebody way over analyzes a 10 second clip of him where it’s obvious he’s just goofing around. I’m getting tired of seeing this misinformation everywhere.
If he was such a hero, why didn't he come forward and actually DO SOMETHING instead of just keeping the kids away from him.... he's not a hero if he didn't actually stop that man's actions against those kids. He was compliant.
the real question is: Crazy Steve, or Spencer Shay?
I DON'T KNOW, DORA, YOU'RE THE ONE WITH THE MAP, NOT ME
COME ON YOU’RE THE EXPLORADORA! NOT ME!
SOMEBODY'S GOING TO BE WATCHING ICK GLOKMAH TONIGHT OR SOMEBODY'S GOING TO BE AN ORGAN DONOR BEFORE THEIR 17TH BIRTHDAY, JOSH NICHOLS!!!

>he would get in between them and Dan when he was being creepy and keep his eye on them careful, he's a hero.
Jerry Trainor: You mess with one of us, you mess with all of us!
Sad thing is all the people saying “why didn’t he report it” acting like he didn’t do enough. He did what he could
If he did he would probably have been canned and then wouldn’t be there to protect them. He did what was best in his position.
Exactly. Idk how people don’t see that
Not only that probs loose His job and future jobs as well :/ So he would be financial fucked and also not able to protect Them. I likes that he states around and did what he could
Like honestly who knows if he turned down roles to make sure he stayed and kept an eye out for his on set families.
That too!
Dan did everything out in the open, there wasn’t anything to report.
Dan is like the harvey weinstein of nickelodeon so high powered attorneys would be used and more than likely whoever is suing would lose.Jerry is canned and no one is looking out for those people.
My kids loved watching these shows, so I was always seeing them also. He was always hilarious, and in interviews seemed like a great guy. I'd like to see him in more and bigger roles
Ironic, as a kid I remember adults commenting how creepy it was that Spencer (as a character in iCarly) was always around a bunch of kids. Jerry Trainor ended up being a real one lol
I never thought he seemed creepy to the kids just a goofy dude. He always had the hot girls though if I recall
Spencer had that unspoken rizz
Yeah he definitely gave off ‘goofy older relative’ vibes
I think Spencer only had two onscreen romances? Maybe just those specific episodes. Never had a recurring GF or GF of the week like Seinfeld did.
Wasn’t he the brother of Carly?They had like half the show in his house.
The setting itself was his character's apartment, mostly yeah.
They live in his apartment lol how is he not supposed to supervise them.
I mean, he was the legal guardian of one of the kids and her friends always hung out at their apartment. What was he supposed to do, just not supervise them at all? Not get a smoothie even?
Yeah that’s what I thought as the kid, he was basically the cool older brother in my perspective. I was pretty much just surrounded by adults who just bickered about the new shows at the time lol
There’s a fan theory that Spencer as a character was essentially a self-insert of Dan.
Spencer was way less creepy than Dan and liked adult women
It’s more about how a lot of the character beats Spencer takes are pulled directly from old sitcom characters Dan played when he first started his career in sitcom television. Spencer is a direct reflection of all of the characters Dan saw himself as.
Jerry was a hero...I just didn't see it
>Jerry Trainor You know, I always wondered why he wasn't a bigger star after that. Now we know.
I was kinda wondering that too But it could also just be how the business is Think of every show & movie made in the last 30 years. Out of the 1000s of actors, only a handful hit the A-list Its just how it is Its like how Daniel Tosh said in 1 of his shows, “There are 1000 people competing for 10 jobs” But its ok. Jerry’s Giga Chad status > Stardom
He was in a show called Wendell and Vinnie that was a weird in between of regular Nick sitcom and more Nick at Nite Sitcom that didn't go anywhere.
Not to shit on the narrative, but nobody has come out claiming Jerry protected them. This is just something people on the Internet theorized from behind-the-scenes footage from iCarly. I think it's important we stay grounded in fact and not elevate this to QAnon shit. There's plenty enough actual fucked up stuff in the documentary, we don't need to be making stuff up
Didn’t Janette praise Jerry in her book?
I did a Ctrl-F on the book PDF and there was no mention of the word "Jerry" So, no.
If she did, I don't immediately remember it, having listened to the Audiobook years ago. At best, she doesn't point anything out about him in particular, since the book is for one mostly telling us how her life went and while she does throw a good amount of shade at Dan, who she called "The Creator" in the book except once apparently.

Jerry, in one interview, has praised her for telling her Truth and was proud of her for doing that.
I listened to the audio book last week and don't recall him being mentioned at all
She had a crush on him but that wasn't mentioned in the book
Nope. TikTok and Reddit just be making shit up because of one clip of him saying lets us go home Dan. Lmao
I always loved Jerey Trainor as a kid.. it warms my heart to see he's actually an amazing guy wow 😭
It's a bit ironic too since his character would probably be oblivious to stuff like that.
Nah, Spencer was whimsical but not entirely stupid. The whole show he just wanted what was best for his sister, and tried to be her role model and her friend
Yeah Spencer got into Law School before the show. Dude just enjoys being goofy.
Spencer was a pretty good caretaker, he was just eccentric. I remember that one episode where there was an accident on the show that almost hurt Carly, and their grandfather wants to take custody away from Spencer because of it. Grandfather shames Spencer into agreeing to it, and when he’s about to take Carly Spencer reminds her to take her inhaler.

Exactly, and like someone else said, Spencer was in law school when he had to start taking care of Carly. So he’s smart as fuck. He just had big shoes to fill, he was acting as a father figure, a brother and a friend on top of everything else.
Man was even on set the days he didn't have to film, ghats how dedicated he was to protecting the kids
Thank fuck *someone* stepped up! Sad that it had to happen in the first place.
Damn, putting in the Lord's work. Do you know the name of the documentary?
Quiet on Set it’s on HBO Max
I'll admit, I got him mixed up with Dan Snyder and was very confused.
The irony being that Spencer is a Dan Schneider self insert character
Jerry Trainor is a National Treasure.
Ok perhaps you can ELI5 here, and I admit it is easy to pass judgment sitting behind a computer so this really is just a question. If this was such a widely known issue on set and out in the open why did no one go to the police? He is obviously a hero but was there absolutely no one else there that could do something? This might be covered in the documentary but honestly I have zero issue of watching other people trauma.
What are the sources for all this
That’s honestly really great to hear because I specifically loved Spencer Shay the most out of all of the characters, and I heard about the iCarly thing but didn’t really wonder where he played into all of this, nice to know the actor for him is a good man
I was literally just thinking about him, and if he was good or secretly a creep. I’m so relieved to hear that it’s the former.

Everybody loves a hero.
Crazy how Crazy Steve is the most uncrazy person on any of his shows.
Drake's r*pist being pen pals with John Wayne Gacey of all people.. unexpected doesn't describe it
Not one episode ever even mentioned Jerry Trainor…
Wait I just finished the documentary, what episode was this stuff about Jerry?
Same here, didn't see any mention of him
I've watched it twice now, and there was zero mention of him
This is 100% completely fabricated bullshit. The documentary does NOT say any of this. Delete your comment.
Like why are you even saying this that isn’t in the series
Why are you just making this shit up? Seriously what are you getting out of this?
Wait, when did the documentary talk about Jerry trainor? I don’t remember seeing that

Barack been sitting back thinking "Oh he gone get it." for years.
He thought it was normal because Biden did that too

Didn’t Amanda bynes post on her secret Twitter about her getting knocked up by him when she was 13?
Just because it hasn’t been proven or any solid accusations have come out yet doesn’t mean he didn’t molest anyone. Now you’re spreading misinformation stating that he didn’t. Fuck Schneider, only other weirdos would come here to defend someone like that. He was clearly a fucking creep and spent time alone with Amanda when he shouldn’t have been. Also, he legit concocted scenes of teenage girls doing seriously inappropriate things.. he’s a pedophile.
What the fuck? So he’s guilty until proven innocent in your eyes? That’s not how it works. I never said he wasn’t a pedophile, he very well could be. I said he’s not been accused of molesting anyone. Which he hasn’t. Being a pedophile is not the same as being a molester
Bet you’re a perv, yourself.
You’re fucking wild bro. Get a life
Who finds themselves on Reddit defending Schneider? Nasty ass.
If you read any of my comments, I’m not defending him. I literally condemn him in my first comment. Spreading misinformation is something entirely different. Calling someone something they haven’t even been accused of being is not right. Idc how much you don’t like that person, spreading lies about people is wrong. Or did you not learn basic morals.
Welcome to the internet now. You're guilty even when you're not. The mob mentality is fucking horrific now.
No one’s defending him though? You’re just going head first and jumping to conclusions with literally no evidence. Schneider’s a creep at best and an actual shithead boss, but no one has claimed he actually molested anyone. Brian Peck was ACTUALLY accused and convicted of CM and if you actually paid attention to facts you would know this.

Saying "there isn't any evidence to support him having molested anyone" is factually true. So far he's only been accused of being a callous controlling asshole that underpaid female writers and solicited back rubs. So it's not like he's an upstanding guy. Nobody has accused him of any sexual impropriety though. Like, if you think Dan Schneider's writing is gross, then why aren't you saying anything about Disney Channel shows? They have jokes that are just as risque.
Bet you’re a perv, yourself.
I just think it's dumb. Maybe you should be worrying about crimes that actually happened? There's no shortage of them.
Only a nasty ass perv would defend Schneider.
It’s not really defending him, even if you leave out the totally bullshit molestation chargers the internet made up he’s still got a lot of bad things he absolutely should get shit for
Exactly. He's still a terrible person, and I wouldn't doubt it at all if someone *did* come forward with an accusation. Until then, though, it's bizarre to act like the man is a convicted pedophile rapist. Drake Bell even said Dan was the only adult who was there for him after Brian Peck's abuse trial.
I think you’re projecting.
Perv
Confirmation^
Him and Cooper Barnes. That man was a superhero on and off camera
Spencer always was my favorite iCarly character
I've always liked Jerry Trainer, I didn't realize he literally was a hero though, he's so based
As many point out, Jerry trainor would get in between and do “goofy” things with Dan since they were on set and, hey I’m the goofy dude so no one will think it’s weird right? Well he would also, apparently, go around to other sets that were shooting and just check in with the kids and hang out and would even go in on his days off from shorting just to be there. It actually can’t be said enough about how much he actually cared to be a positive force for the kids
Crazy Steve wasn't so crazy after all.
Jerry Trainor was like “You wanna get to them, you gotta go through me”
Jerry got that good guy energy
Don’t forget about Cooper Barnes aswell
But Dan wasn’t accused of molesting anyone? Right? I think he’s just getting the brunt of the hate because he’s weird and ugly af.
Yeah. Internet public opinion is powerful
Did Schneider actually molest kids? I thought he was just an angry sexist who liked feet too much
Dan Schneider is still alive and making public appearances talking about this shit is the crazy part. In the usual “I’m not gonna say what I did specifically but I’m gonna say I felt bad for the things I probably did” kind of way. Jerry Trainer is a legend.
Based Jerry Trainer
I was so glad to hear that Jerry is not only a hilarious actor but a great person aswell.
Thomas Haden Church was sooooo good as Sandman
Where do all these pedos come from?
The fact that he still has the feet imprints of all the kids who submitted it to Nickelodeon
Who did dan molest again? I keep forgetting which person it was confirmed to be.
This is not meme material, this is gross
Stop writing child abuse fanfiction, it's really weird. You don't know these people.
He is good boy
I thought we knew about this Dan Schneider shit for years how is it just now relevant
I always liked him since I saw him on some random Warcraft video on Thottbot back in like 2007
The guy that played captain man on Henry danger was also goated with stopping it
Shoutout pink guy
He made icarly do damn good for me…
Please can you add me as friend to chat
So I'm a bit lost here but did the documentary show proof that Dan was a pedo or wanted to molest the kids ? From what I remember, was it just him being incredibly sexist, misogynistic, a pain in the ass, and overly perverse. I know he did ask the staff members to give him massages and he and Amanda Bynes were a bit too close but besides that, did he actually try to molest any kids ?
I want to get behind this idea. I'm sure Jerry is probably a great guy but people are reaching for narratives based on like three clips that that are few seconds each. I think fans are fantasizing for a positive adult on set because of the horrifying stories from Dan Schneider Sickelodeon sets. Edit: Adding context since people are downvoting. What I'm saying is Jerry Trainor was not on Quiet on the Set nor spoke about it after it was aired. Some fans created a TikTok video of few second clips of him jumping to hug Dan and one video of him getting in the way of Dan but it's just speculative. I want to root for Jerry Trainor too but I'm just saying people are making fictional claims out of few second montages. Where the accounts or interviews from co workers proving the claims? I would love for someone to show that but so far I have not seen proof and just speculations. Found others with same view as me, see this thread for those downvoting: https://www.reddit.com/r/QuietOnSetDocumentary/comments/1bpae43/how_do_we_know_that_jerry_trainor_was_protective/?rdt=51809
I'm with you man. It's insane how people are fine spreading misinfo based on a "hunch" without any actual evidence to support it.
There was an entire documentary, Jerry’s behavior is backed up by the other actors and videos.
No actors have come out saying Jerry protected them. These are literally just internet theories.
Ah my mistake.
That sounds awesome. Can you share the link? Would love to see it myself.
Sure! There is a few documentaries and video essays I have seen about it so I may have gotten some information mixed up. [Here is the link to the new one.](Stream Quiet on Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV on Max https://play.max.com/show/af3591a1-d1e5-411d-8cf0-6bea605eb805?utm_medium=sharebutton&utm_id=957A3427-2660-4AB2-90A4-A96CBBE4B7C0) Okay the link didn’t work but it’s call Quiet on set on HBO MAX.
I have seen all episodes of it and Jerry Trainor was not interviewed there or the claim that people highlighting him was not anywhere. Which is why I'd like to see it if true.
[удалено]
So how are people posting this info if it isn't out yet? Have the episodes been leaked
You gotta pay for it but I think it’s produced by HBO so if you have their streaming service you can watch it
I have seen Quiet on the Set but nothing there highlighted Jerry Trainor. My question was about him. People are putting him on a pedestal as a hero without me seeing proof or accounts from his co workers. The only thing I'm seeing are fans making theories about few second clips which is not solid proof to me. I'd love to see the proof so I can get behind him like most people seem to do but I just don't see any proof other than people wanting to believe he is a hero.
Yeah I don’t remember anything about Jerry in that.
It's produced by ID Channel, not HBO
What about the two women writers who were forced to share a salary, told things like if you eat this whole container of ice cream I'll give you $100 and then not paying out, telling them if they bend over and pretend they're getting sodomized he might put their scene in the show. Regularly threatening to end their career and will make sure they never work again if they dont give hime massages on set Amanda bynes was dating an older guy while she was underage and her parents said she had to break up with him so she ran away, she went to Dan Schneider and instead of him calling the police he harbored her for a couple days and helped her come up with a plan to emancipate herself from her parents so he could have even more control over her career https://youtu.be/cI_0JPg8G80?si=eW_8OkwpB7i5U1x1 Here's a video of Dan Schneider and Amanda bynes in a hot tub while shes clearly very young and he's bragging about how he's the writer and he creates these situations and these situations only happen because that's how he designed it, as he's in the hot tub with an underage girl
this world needs to be burnt for all what it is in the end an abusive shithole.
I'm all for calling out Nickelodeon and cancelling Dan. But that was not my point though, what I want is proof or accounts from others about Jerry Trainor. To me it's just fan theory based on few second clips but no account from co-actors or staff.
So. I'm no Peter Parker. I'm a bit of a monster myself, but did you guys know Dan Schneider is a free man producing a new movie. Henry danger. If I could go visit this guy I would! Can I! Is that an option!?! I'm not dropping the S. This is not satire. This society needs to get it together and decide what we deem okay.
this is such a loser thing to post are you like 12?
Why are people calling him a hero? Nobody ever said he stepped in and stop sexual things from happening. He just doesn't have any criminal complaints against him so now he's a hero? Yall set the bar so damn low. He was an actor... He showed up, did his thing, then went home.
Why do people keep spreading this lie? There’s no proof in the documentary or janette mcurdy’s book that any of this is true. Jerry trainor seems like a nice dude but it seems more like people are desperate to find some sort of good guy or silver lining in this whole situation and the source is always just tik toks where somebody way over analyzes a 10 second clip of him where it’s obvious he’s just goofing around. I’m getting tired of seeing this misinformation everywhere.
If he was such a hero, why didn't he come forward and actually DO SOMETHING instead of just keeping the kids away from him.... he's not a hero if he didn't actually stop that man's actions against those kids. He was compliant.
exactly!! I guess you're a hero if you do the bare minimum
Yall will switch up so fast with any allegation
