'Quiet on Set' directors exclusively told Us Weekly that they wouldn't be surprised if more Nickelodeon alums spoke out about their time at the network

Quiet on Set directors Mary Robertson and Emma Schwartz wouldn't be surprised if more former child stars spoke out about their experience at Nickelodeon following the docuseries’ surprising revelations about the network's past toxic work environment.

'We always hoped to create a work that was sweeping — that aimed to be definitive and complex. That said, even works that are sweeping and definitive and complex have to leave a material on the cutting room floor,' she noted. 'There were a lot of those that didn't make their way in.' 'That's where we really relied on basic journalistic skills. You'll take any tip and then you run it down. Is it true? Can you validate it? Can you not validate it?' Schwartz explained. 'That was the practice that we tried to marry with some of the sort of speculation that had been out there. Ultimately what you have in Quiet on Set is this look at the power dynamics at the way this culture has been made over decades in children's television.
