The Dan Schneider abuse allegations gained massive internet traction following the release of the Investigation Discovery docuseries 'Quiet on Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV' in 2024. While rumors regarding Schneider's behavior and perceived fixation on foot-related humor had circulated on forums like Reddit and 4chan for years, the documentary provided heartbreaking firsthand accounts from former child stars. Memes regarding this topic generally focus on the retrospective discomfort of watching shows like iCarly, Victorious, and Zoey 101. They serve as a form of dark humor or social commentary, contrasting the vibrant childhood nostalgia of the 2000s with the alleged toxic environment that existed behind the scenes at Nickelodeon.
