Drake Bell is speaking out about the alleged assault that took place at the hands of a Nickelodeon dialogue coach when he was a teenager.
The former child star is set to tell her story in the upcoming documentary “Quiet on Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV.”
Drake Bell Claims He Was Sexually Abused On Nickelodeon Set
Bell plans to tell his story in a bombshell documentary. A trailer for the upcoming show was shared on YouTube with a description that read, “Former Nickelodeon star Drake Bell will share publicly, for the first time, the story of the abuse he suffered at the hands of Brian Peck.”

The teaser clip begins with one of Bell’s former co-stars telling the camera, “To hear that Brian Peck was a sexual predator, it made me wonder right away who was hurt.” Then former Nickelodeon star Giovonnie Samuels stated, “Who he is, when it happened, where it happened, I don’t know.”
Soon, a somber-looking Bell entered the darkened room, holding back tears and ready to tell the truth. The exact details of the abuse have yet to be discussed but “Quiet on Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV” will air on March 17 and 18.
At this time, it is not certain whether Peck is the subject of Bell’s accusations, but the disgraced filmmaker worked on Nickelodeon’s “The Amanda Show. He was arrested in 2003 on charges of child pornography and oral sex of a person under 16 Peck was later convicted of sexually abusing an unidentified Nickelodeon child actor and sentenced to 16 months in prison.
Bell isn’t the only Nickelodeon alum to publicly accuse the entertainment network of creating an environment that makes it easy for its child stars to be molested and abused.
In August 2022, “Zoey 101” actress Alexa Nikolas staged a protest outside the studio’s headquarters alleging she and others were abused by executives. The former child star who claimed she “didn’t feel safe” while on the show held signs that read, “Nickelodeon doesn’t protect me,” “Sickelodeon” and “eat a predator.”
Taking things further, Nikolas displayed pictures of five men in different positions of power who had all worked at Nickelodeon and had been convicted or accused of some form of sexual misconduct. The list includes Marty Weiss, children’s talent manager; John Kricfaulsi, creator of Ren and Stimpy; Ezel Channel, production assistant in animation; Jason Handy, production assistant, and Peck.
Drake Bell Threatens to Kill Himself Due to Online Trolls
Bell’s big allegations of sexual abuse come months after he publicly threatened to commit suicide telling online trolls that they would have “blood on their hands” if they continued to call him a pedophile.
He tweeted, “Noooo Immmm Noooooottttt!!!! You guys are going to kill me” when one troll called him a sex offender and then told another that “You people are ruining my life.”
When another online user said “Don’t forget he’s a pedo,” in a conversation with a fan trying to defend him, Bell replied “Do some research. This is what I have to deal with every day they’re literally going to kill me. Blood on their hands…”
In 2021, Bell was charged with child endangerment and received two years of probation and 200 hours of community service as punishment.
