The Dark Side of Child TV

The Ugly Truth Podcast

Mar 23 2024 • 30 mins

What is the English translation of the Latin phrase ‘Nic kelo deo?’ Well it appears the Google translate has already ‘redefined‘ this to mean God bless you. But if you break down every word individually into iTranslate, one of the top translator apps available, nic means ‘nothing’, nic kelo means ‘I don’t care’ and deo means God. This phrase actually means I don’t care about God.

Interesting that the name chosen for a kids TV channel is so closely tied to this Latin phrase. Nickelodeon shaped children’s comedy TV beginning in the 90’s. A new documentary is exposing industry leaders at Nickelodeon for verbal, emotional and sexual abuse.

QUIET ON SET reveals an insidious environment rife with allegations of abuse, sexism, racism, and inappropriate dynamics with its underage stars and crew. This docuseries, aired on March 17 and 18, compiled several interviews reflecting on the early days of Nickelodeon.
