There have been a lot of rumors about Dan Schneider for years. I don't think this turning out bad would be surprising.

Honestly not much can be tied towards Disney, at least anything that's even remotely credible(outside of that recent John Lasseter thing)

Meanwhile the whole Dan Schneider thing has basically been an open secret for at least a decade

Oh it's almost a guarantee, but they're Disney, they have enough power to fix anything.

While Disney has probably buried some things over the years, I figure they're just smarter overall about nipping this kinda of thing in the bud, it just fits more with their Corporate culture

I still hold out hope that Dan is just a regular weirdo and not a sex weirdo

Cause everything afaik is just him being weird about feet, which could be either “foot fetishist being creepy with kids” or “children’s comedy director thinks feet are funny and probably takes it too far”

But then apparently he’s also kind of an rear end in a top hat so gently caress, I dunno

There haven’t been any stories of him outright diddling kids, right?

He's suspected to have gotten Jamie-Lynn Spears pregnant, which resulted in the cancellation of Zoey 101 and end of her career, and possibly Britney Spears' meltdown.

I swear I've seen a clip of a former Nickelodeon aide refer to him as Dan She's A Fighter Hold Her Tighter Schneider. I can't find it anymore, but that's how I first learned about Schneider. It could all just be petty rumors from people who hated working with him, but there's enough smoke with this that I would be surprised by a fire at all.

It looks about like you'd expect for a dtv movie. There's nothing wrong with it, outside of the vague principle of always needing to piggyback new things on old ips.

I don't really know much about YA fiction these days, are they not coming up with new mystery-solving teens anymore?

But really, Scooby-Doo is basically the last of its kind, now. A lot of shows actually have Johnny Quest throwback inter-generational casts (though not sure that ever really went away), and don't bother with fake supernatural when you can have the real stuff.

Reminded how Star Vs had a character (a Weird Al cameo, naturally) who is a stage magician with magical powers, but he doesn't use his magic for his stage shows, which appear to be mundane sleight of hand, while his powers act differently.

Oh, that's a classic comic book idea. Zatanna in the DCU does the same thing, she can do real magic, but her stage show is normal smoke and mirrors stuff. I like it, because the idea is that it's easy to impress people by casting real spells, but it's harder to make it look like you're doing that with mundane stagecraft.

Appearntly she does do one real act of magic in the shows once in a while, but keeps the rest mundane. Wanting to see if anyone can spot the difference.

Yeah, it's the same with webcomics (Paranatural, Gunnerkrigg Court & Bad Machinery all fit that mold, and I'm sure there's many others). Having actual supernatural stuff allows for more action scenes, I guess.

Which is a shame,since you could still have more 'mundane' mysteries and get those kind of action scenes (Fillmore & its glorious police procedural pastiche leaps to mind).
