When a group of former child actors went public with claims of sexual harassment and abuse on the set of Nickelodeon dating back three decades, their stories were both horrifying and sensational. "Quiet on the Set: The Dark Side of Kids' TV," a documentary series by Investigation Discovery that began airing in March, exposes serious misconduct against child actors that took place in the 1990s and early 2000s.

Children who were paid for their work on "The Amanda Show," "Drake & Josh," "All That," and other popular kids' shows were allegedly subjected to bullying, racism and sexual assault—all conduct that should not be tolerated in today's workplace. Despite attempts by some of their parents to stop the abuse, nothing appears to have been done to protect these child actors.
