He had the most dramatic plans over the smallest personal grudges. 😂 Somehow, every time he appeared, you knew things were about to get weird. Which iCarly side character deserved more episodes?

Given how a lot of the dialogue and trends are already dated on that show, iCarly‘s new team actively got with the times and was not afraid to throw punches with its humor.

Saw that in my script of iPilot

Does anyone have a sound bite remote that Sam used that they are willing to part with? TIA my friends!!

I am not a creddie shipper or seddie shipper but I’m confused why you guys see this episode as a big “creddie moment” because to me it’s just a F you to creddie shippers, I mean the episode is basically proving that Carly doesn’t actually like him? In the end scene Freddie even has to ask Carly what they are and she responds with “maybe” and when he asks her why she now likes his nerdy talk she just kisses him. I’m glad Freddie understood what was going on and broke things off with her but also he tells her that if she actually liked him they’d get back together after the whole “hero” thing wore off and they didn’t so that only proves it further. A lot of you guys can say that it was ment to be creddie from the start but I think these writers were genuinely focused on seddie no shade..

I understand that he was feeling so uncomfortable from the situation that he didn't know what to do, but what was he gonna achieve by letting Trudy drag him on the floor like a potato sack without even doing something about it?

Not sure what forum to post this on but I was re watching icarly and episode ‘imake same girlier’ came on and Carly wore this adorable top but I can’t seem to find it anywhere, I’ll add in a picture of it, could anyone help me find the top or something similar? Thank you!

I hope you remember....

This is going to be a long one. I apologize in advance.

Rewatching Icarly as an adult and there was so much that I missed as an adolescent. I have so many thoughts about many different aspects of the show. This post will be about Sam (one of my favorites). For clarity, this post is completely about Sam (the character) and not relating at all to Jeanette McCurdy (as my thoughts are relating to this post is purely on the shows lore and characters and not the background implications).

As a child and teen (and even now, as someone that is in college) I love Icarly. It’s by far one of my top 5 comfort shows. As a teen I recognized that’s there was definitely some shadowing of serious issues in the show but when a guy is drinking a smoothie next to an ostrich, it’s hard to focus on it.

Sam. First thing first, I love her so much. Her character is so great, and it’s refreshing to see a character so complex as her. From the outside (and as a teen), I just saw a stubborn, food loving, kinda mean, protective girl who just went with the flow. As an adult? I finally see Sam for what her character actually was.

Like most teens, she didn’t come from a perfect household. Saying that she came from a bad household wouldn’t even be enough for what she went through.

1) She and her twin sister were born on a city bus. This is used as a joke in the show but in reality this would be a nightmare. Chances of her or Melanie having some sort of traumatic birth would kr been high. The lack of proper medical sterilization and care during and after birth right away would have been catastrophic. Twins have about a 60% chance of passing before birth due to complications. The show points out that this is because of Sam’s mother not proerly planning.

As quoted in iTwins: “My mom's not good at planning” (Sam)-

While this is said like a joke I actually am lead to believe that Sam’s mom didn’t know that she was going to go into labor. Sam’s mom is a lot of things, but statistically the chances of premature labor with twins is very high.

2) The jokes about Sam loving food: looking back, I feel immensely bad for how Sam is treated with food. Sam’s mom is financially very unstable. She unstable period. She’s in and out of jail, implied to be on drugs (or “vitamins” per the show), and she does not have a job. Sam’s father abandoned the family when she was a child, and to cope with this Sam’s mother brings home random men into the apartment. From the “jokes” in the show, it seems like Sam’s mother spends her money only on herself. There is never food at home, which is why Sam is so good aggressive. She’s worried she won’t get another meal.

Food is a constant in her life. I feel with Sam, as that is her coping mechanism. Hunger is a pain that you can make go away. There are so many pains in Sam’s life that she cannot make go away. This is why I love Spencer so much from the perspective of an adult, because he always has an abundance of food in the house for Sam. Sam practically lives in Carly’s apartment, because it’s a safe household free of drugs and random men and the possibility of jail.

She is teased a lot of liking food, and I think this brings her a bit of comfort because people think that she just likes food…a lot. Not that she is constantly afraid of not eating and that she has coping issues. I think Spencer recognizes this so that’s why sometimes he does light teasing. It makes her feel normal. She hates being seen as a burden and is stubborn to the core. She hates asking for help, so that’s why it’s easier to be this thick skinned mean girl who just likes food a lot. But she’s not, but her environment has created a side of her that she shows to almost everyone.

3) her “meanness”: her words to Gibby and Freddie are not good. I’m not even going to say that she’s in the right there. But, the reason she does it is because it gives her a sense of control. It’s ironic that most people who were abused, become abusers. The cycle always continues. She has always felt very small and out of control. Belittling others allows her to feel big and to feel like she isn’t less than nothing. She is actually a very sweet girl, and the one scene that sticks out to me is when she got a job at the Chili place.

She started crying to Carly and when Freddie walked in she started growling/screaming. After Freddie ran away out of fear, she went back to crying. Less than 30 seconds truly showed who Sam was. Sam is a fundamentally abused girl who had the childhood of nightmares. As a teen, she’s trying to be cool and trying to be normal but it’s hard when everything around you is held by duck tape of your own placing. She has zero control, so she controls her words (by being mean) to get control. She eats a lot to not feel that pain that she feels so much of whenever she isn’t with Carly. She most likely has some sort of medical issue from birth but due to how little her mother cares, she isn’t receiving assistance.

Yet, Sam is treated by her friends like everyone else. Nobody fully sees her issues because she uses humor as a coping mechanism. Sam is a lot like most adults I encounter. And I hope that all the Sam’s out there find happiness in their life, as they never chose to be in the hellish life they were given.

Rant over. Sam, I love you and I wish her character as an adult is happy and finds true peace and comfort.

Out of every friendship in any Nick show, Carly and Sam’s will always be my favorite. A lot of people overlook just how important their friendship was to the show and no offense to those who like the revival without Sam or even prefer Harper and Carly over Sam and Carly but to me it will always be Sam and Carly. They have been friends since the second grade and have been there for each other, supported each other, and helped each other in so many different ways. Carly helped Sam become a better person, and Sam was always there to defend Carly (even if it was in her own crazy way lol)

Their different personalities, humor, and chemistry is what made the og series so entertaining and I know Carly was technically the host of Icarly but without Sam it wouldn’t have been what it was. They made the webshow successful and funny together and their friendship helped shape the humor of the entire show (webshow and actual show)

Honestly imo I feel like if they couldn’t get the original actor for Sam OR someone to recast her, they shouldn’t have made the revival at all. I don’t think of Sam ever leaving the group (or most importantly Carly) to join a biker gang would ever be a realistic thing, yes she liked riding motorcycles but in the case of bringing Icarly back. Her character is super important to it all. They had such a funny and beautiful friendship and I think making a revival where that character isn’t there ruined the nostalgia and love a lot of people had for the original and their friendship! Which is why a lot of fans say “it’s not the same without Sam” and it’s rlly not the same without them being a Team.

I don’t rlly see the revival as canon for many reasons including this one. And to each their own! But Carly and Sam’s chemistry and history as friends really made the show what it was.

(Add on: let me give Freddie his credits as well lol, he was a huge amazing part of the show as well but this post is about Carly and Sam. AND I know Harper was not there to replace Sam and the writers actually did a good job of making that clear which I liked! Harper is a very good character. But it still wasn’t the same)

i can watch it over and over without getting tired of it. 😆

What’s yours?

Spencer was always setting things on fire. If I had a brother like that I would be parenting him.

Why did Carly's parents let her live with Spencer despite how irresponsible he was? She had the webshow yeah which she did with Sam and Freddie. Being friends with the mean girl and nerdy boy was a lot better than having a brother who starts fire. Freddie's mom was just as bad not irresponsible but overbearing. No wonder Mr. Benson probably left she's crazy. Carly's like thirteen so I think she can help take care of Spencer too.

(side note this isnt mine im just using the fan art flair because this is beautiful art)

I kinda wanna get the 9x9 lol if you know who made this or are the one that made this thank you for your contribution to society genuinely amazing I love this

I personally was not a big fan of the last season (season 6) I thought other than the one direction episode, I get banned,and pear store all the others were very pointless and boring. (THIS IS MY OWN PERSONAL OPINION) not only that the actors were getting old I think they were all 20 by the time the show ended. Season 5 had great episodes such as the First Lady and if they made it a longer season it would have been great to end if off there with the igoodbye. Thoughts?

carly is the most "miranda" looking girl

sam is the most "jennette" looking girl

freddie is the most "nathan" looking guy

spencer is the most "jerry" looking guy

and gibby is the most "noah" looking guy

THEY FIT PERFECTLY

i used a tortilla and cream cheese spaghetti and bro i ate it up

.

Finally woke up before 4:00 PM on a Saturday, so I thought I'd check out Miranda's STEM show. But it wasn't on!

So I pulled up CBS's weekend schedule. It's no longer airing at 11:30 AM. Did they decide not to renew it? And if so, how am I supposed to get my Miranda Cosgrove fix?
