Former Nickelodeon star Melissa Joan Hart speaks out about ‘Quiet on Set’ doc: I ‘believe’ the victims ‘one hundred percent’

Hart noted that most of the alleged issues took place at the Hollywood filming location while she was stationed in Orlando from 1989 to 1994.

“In Orlando I had nothing but a wonderful experience,” she said, before admitting that “they did work the kids a lot harder than they probably legally should” due to the state’s child labor laws.

“We had a ton of fun, it was just long hours, that’s all — because I had to do school and the show,” she continued.

While working on the show was time-consuming, Hart was surrounded by “an amazing crew” and “an incredible cast” that took “such good care” of her.

“I mean, these people were protective of me,” she emphasized, noting that she felt “very safe” in their care.

“So I don’t know if it was the difference in Orlando, or the time period or whoever these guys were they weren’t around but I have to say not every egg in the Nickelodeon basket is rotten.”

While Hart left the network in the mid-’90s, Peck began sexually assaulting the then-15-year-old Bell in the early 2000s.

The “Drake & Josh” star sued Peck in 2004 for sexual abuse; however, he remained anonymous in the lawsuit. The voice coach pleaded no contest and was sentenced to 16 months in prison.

Since the documentary dropped earlier this month, several former Nickelodeon stars have come forward about their own experiences with the network’s staff members — some positive and some not.

On Wednesday, Kenan Thompson told Tamon Hall on her eponymous talk show that he “wasn’t really aware of a lot of” the documentary’s revelations because they happened after he left.

However, the “All That” alum urged the network to “investigate more” and added that his “heart [went] out to anybody that’s been victimized.”

“I think it’s a good thing that the doc is out and is putting things on display that need to be — stories that need to be told for accountability sake,” he said. “But it’s definitely tough to watch because I have fond memories of that place.”

“I have fond memories of my co-stars and stuff like that, so, to hear that they’ve gone through terrible things like that, it’s just, it’s really tough,” Thompson continued.
