I am a Single Mother and this is My Story

Single motherhood: a journey full of love, sacrifice and untold challenges.

This show aims to expose the daily pressures single mothers endure, while encouraging the conversation around mental health and the vital need for specialised counselling services.

Presented by Nthabiseng Mahlangu, each episode features intimate conversations with a single mother and someone who has witnessed their journey.

Quiet on Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV

Channel: TLC Entertainment (DStv 135)
TX Time: 22h00
Genre: True Crime, Documentary Series

Quiet on Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV

Quiet on Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV is a four-part docuseries that uncovers the toxic and dangerous culture behind some of the most iconic American children's shows of the late 1990s and early 2000s.

The two-parter pulls back the curtain on an empire, built by creator Dan Schneider, that had an undeniable grip on popular culture.

Series such as All That and The Amanda Show, among others, were obsessively consumed by children across the country and defined comedy for a generation.

But behind the upbeat onscreen presence on these shows with questionable jokes and over-the-top sketches, Quiet on Set reveals an insidious environment rife with allegations of abuse, sexism, racism and inappropriate dynamics with its underage stars and crew.

Quiet on Set features unprecedented access to key cast members, writers and crew spanning Schneider's popular series at Nickelodeon; Former All That cast members Giovonnie Samuels, Kyle Sullivan, Bryan Hearne and Katrina Johnson; and director Virgil Fabian; pull back the curtain on the culture on set of the beloved teen sketch series.

Writers Jenny Kilgen and Christy Stratton expose allegations of a toxic and sexist environment in The Amanda Show writer's room.

Alexa Nikolas offers insight into being a part of Zoey 101.

Quiet on Set features additional cast and crew from iCarly, Sam & Cat, Victorious and other series such as Marc Summers from the popular game show Double Dare.

The series will also offer emotional testimony from parents of cast members who attempted to advocate for their children on these sets.

Over the course of its four parts, Quiet on Set will shine a spotlight on these emotional accounts, chronicling a pattern of gross, abusive and manipulative behaviour that unfolded across decades, as well as exclusive stories about child predators on set.

These interviews, woven with archival footage (some of which has never been broadcast), scenes from the shows and social media commentary, will recontextualise many moments within these series that may have seemed silly or off when first aired but now carry a much darker undertone, offering a powerful reframing of these beloved shows.
