Hmmm. Concerning, if true. I only ever saw the 'male' led S-verse shows--Kenan & Kel, and Drake & Josh. One of each of those pairings struggled with drugs for a brief period--I know Kel has turned to Xtianity for solance, since. Wonder if either Josh or Kel battled with 'knowing too much'?

That is a heavy accusation to lay on someone without proof, though.

Whatever happened or didn't, I doubt Schneider got up to much on the sets of K&K or D&J. K&K was early in his career, so even a dumbass would know to keep their shenanigans hidden at that point. Kenan and Kel were also approaching their late teens when they made it, so i doubt they needed the casting couch in the same way a poor little girl may be made to feel she does.

By D&J, Dan more or less would've had free reign--but if he got up to anything, I suppose it would have gone unnoticed, since Drake and Josh themselves seemed way too wrapped up in one another to notice much else. They've had a long career together, been comedic foils since preteendom, so they brought a lot of history and past connection with them to that show. The love is palpable...so much that homoerotic jokes became a staple of D&J by the end.

I just went back and rewatched an ep and it's almost uncomfortably intimate to watch the two work by the last season (season 4). It can't only be me that thinks these two fucked repeatedly and tenderly? Their body language is so cacophonous; I swear in a single episode I saw Drake lean into Josh's arms contentedly and SIGH more than I saw comedic pratfalls (and there are a lot of those in this production). I'm surprised there's room in the show for the canned laughter AND the sparkling pink love elephant in the room.

Wonder why Drake and Josh isn't lauded as a camp classic, yet?
