Most of this documentary felt pretty good, the way the story is laid out at first is done well with Buzzfeed writers... I mean culture writers, giving us the rundown of the story.
The issue? Kate Taylor and Scaachi Koul take up far far far too much time telling us about what the set was like while throwing softball one-liners to people who were actually on the set. At some point we get some completely random guy who's site literally doesn't even get 20 clicks a day, talking more than people who actually experienced and worked on the sets during this time.
This documentary is filled with some gross information about Dan and his time at Nickelodeon. From gross jokes to abuse on and off set, it's a scary thing to learn about and would be better if the vast majority of speaking time wasn't give to complete randoms who's experience of the set is reading the experience that others has on the set.
When you get to the end you discover Kate is a producer, so of course the literal non-stop self-inserts happen, but this is not good for a documentary where you literally have people who lived and experienced the set.
There are interesting moments where you'll have Drake talking about his personal experience and he's cut away from to show Scaachi, Taylor, or this random dude who all weren't on set. It's genuinely jarring and probably some of the worst editing you'll ever see in a documentary of this caliber.
The allegations are crazy and when the people who actually worked on set talk about it, you can tell how it has affected their lives through the decades.
