Amanda Bynes Declined ‘Quiet On Set’ Interview Since She Didn’t Have A “Bad Experience”: Report

Although many fans have wondered if Amanda Bynes was negatively impacted by the explosive allegations made against producer Dan Schneider in the documentary Quiet on Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV, according to a source close to TMZ, Bynes declined to take an interview for the new Nickelodeon doc because she didn’t have a “bad experience” and felt she had nothing to add.

Furthermore, her parents Rick and Lynn felt the same way and declined their interviews as they are private people and wanted to stay out of the spotlight, according to the same report.

This is particularly interesting since the documentary called into question a scene on The Amanda Show where a then-teenage Bynes shared a jacuzzi with Schneider. All That producer Karyn Finley Thompson also told Us Weekly that she “saw Amanda being very close physically with Dan.”

The former child star—who has struggled with her conservatorship, mental health, and addiction in her adulthood—has not yet watched the documentary. Both of her parents have seen it, however, and say they are both “saddened and disgusted” by the allegations.

Bynes starred on The Amanda Show from 1999 to 2002 alongside Drake Bell, who revealed in the documentary that he was abused by dialogue coach Brian Peck (who was involved in the show).

These days, Bynes has been focusing on her passion for cosmetology, recently sporting a blonde wig with blue extensions. You can see her talk about the hairdo below.
