Former Nickelodeon Star Tylor Chase Trashes Motel Room | Daniel Curtis Lee Reveals Shocking Details
Former Nickelodeon actor Tylor Chase is once again in the spotlight after his former costar Daniel Curtis Lee shared disturbing details about a failed attempt to help him during a recent crisis in California.
Lee, best known for playing “Cookie” on Ned’s Declassified School Survival Guide, said he paid for a motel room to give Chase temporary shelter during bad weather. Within hours, the room was allegedly trashed — with a refrigerator overturned, a microwave found in the bathtub, and the door left open.
The incident left Lee devastated and highlighted the limits of informal help when severe mental health and substance abuse issues are involved. Chase’s family has previously warned that housing and cash assistance alone are not enough, stressing the need for professional treatment.
In a positive development, a family helper later confirmed that Chase was hospitalized on Christmas Day for a three-day detox, offering hope that his situation may finally improve.
The story has reignited debate around homelessness, addiction, mental health care, and the lack of systems that allow concerned third parties to intervene effectively.

00:29I hope you're somewhere nice and warm with your families.
00:33Unfortunately, Tyler Chase is not.
00:36And this is the case for millions of other Americans.
00:41All right.
00:41The hotel situation.
00:43We got Tyler Shelter.
00:44Hooray.
00:45Everyone's happy.
00:47Tyler's happy.
00:49Not the case.
00:50Guys, we got him into the hotel.
00:53And just that night, I receive a call from management.
00:57They're upset.
00:58But the door is left open.
01:01Why is there a microwave in the tub?
01:04The refrigerators turned open.
01:06I just feel so devastated.
01:10I'm at a loss.
01:11And his family told me that they had tried the hotel thing before and it didn't work.
01:17And, of course, Dan, why did you assume that you were going to be able to, you know, just fix this situation?
01:25I don't even think we should be at this point, guys.
01:30Three nights ago, when we tried to get him to the hospital, the authorities should have.
01:35I don't understand how a system could be in place, right?
01:39We have all these social systems where help should be provided for these people facing mental health issues, drug abuse issues, right?
01:49Taxpayers vote on this stuff all the time.
01:515150 exists.
01:54A third party should be able to get someone into treatment, get them a psychological evaluation to figure out what is going on and allow them to detox.
02:04I'm just crushed that these systems are not working effectively.
02:09They're not quality systems.
02:11L.A., we got to do better.
02:12Well, Riverside County at this point.
02:15And California, there's the CARE Act.
02:19Let's make sure that it's functioning.
02:20There's no reason that his family should not be able to get him help.
02:29I do want to send a thank you to people that have been supporting, the people on the ground.
02:35Blaze Pizza has given Tyler free pizzas until the 31st.
02:40Now, I got to say, guys, do not just take the plug and abandon my boy.
02:47The 31st, all right, that's coming up soon, right?
02:49He'll be out of food soon.
02:53Please stay with him.
02:54Provide him a safe haven there at that facility.
02:57He loves your pizza.
02:59Guys, I think that it is time to put in a call for 5150.
03:05But I also need insight from you all.
03:08Do you think that's fair to have a third party call and get someone entry into a facility when you know they need the treatment and they're gravely mentally disabled?
03:20We have to do something before it's too late for Tyler.
03:24We have to do something, guys.
03:26And I just want a little insight.
03:28Anyone who has battled with drug addiction in the past and anyone who's battled with mental health problems, what would your perspective be?
03:35Or if you've actually experienced 5150, you know, in a way that was helpful or not, let me know, because I think that's the call that needs to happen.
