Former Nickelodeon game show host Marc Summers shared this week that he was less than pleased with the interview tactics of producers behind ID’s Quiet on Set docuseries, about toxic workplace culture at the popular kids’ network in the 1990s and 2000s.
Summers, who used to host the game show Double Dare on the network, said on the Elvis Duran and the Morning Show Friday that when he was invited to sit down to interview for the docuseries, he wasn’t told the show would center allegations of sexual exploitation, abuse, racism and discrimination.
“I got called by these folks saying they wanted to do a documentary on Nickelodeon—and so I said sure,” he said. “They asked me what I thought of Nick, and the first 10 to 12 seconds, from what I understand, in this documentary is me saying all these wonderful things,” he said. “They never told me what this documentary was really about,” he continued, adding “They did a bait and switch on me—they ambushed me.”
