Gibby likes this girl Shannon but she likes Freddie instead. Carly and Sam do a dating show online and two contestants fail to appear so they will be in it themselves and the girl Shannon. They even tell Gibby to pick number two But he doesn't get it. Freddie plays the show master and Carly answers Gibby's questions. She tells him that she likes him to go get a job. On the what i you we're married question from Freddie. Then Gibby picks number one Carly. He made a mistake but Carly agrees to go out with him. She even invites Gibby friend who talks in a weird manor by using phrases that nobody gets the kid has a crush on Sam but she gets annoyed by him. So they all have a salad bowl Shannon is interested in Freddie who doesn't know anything. Then Gibby tells her that he is the one that wanted to go out with her and that he acted more like freddie. Gibby's friend makes one final comment and then Sam uses on of his phrases to drive him away. Gibby starts acting like himself and dances with his shirt off on the table. Shannon is shocked and leaves. Sam and Carly look on in disgust but there's another girl who likes to dance with Gibby on the table. That dinner scene was so funny everything went wrong But a shirtless kid dancing on a table was just a bit creepy.moreless

In this episode Gibby wants a girl named Shannon to like him, but she likes Freddie. So Carly, Sam and Freddie try to get Gibby to act like Freddie so Shannon might like him too. They make a new iCarly segment called "iWin a Date", but the contestants do not show instead of just Shannon, so Carly and Sam fill in, and at the end Gibby picks Carly. So Carly goes out to dinner with Gibby, Freddie with Shannon and Sam with Gibby's weird friend. In the end Shannon runs away but Gibby might have found a new girl.

It was nice, to me, to see a Gibby-centric episode, and I hope we see more in the futuremoreless

"Superb"

By nicesweetgirl36, Aug 11, 2008

I really liked this episode. It was really funny. It was nice to see Gibby in a whole episode. Some of my favorite parts were when Freddie was talking about Shannon writing all the love notes, I loved the faces Freddie made. I thought it was funny when Sam attacked Freddie because she thought he set her up on a date, and Carly was trying to stop Sam. I think that shows Carly would protect Freddie and she really cares about him. I also really liked when Carly said Aw. Poor kid. It must be awful to love somebody who doesn't love you back, and then when Freddie looked at her she said Sorry. This shows Carly felt bad for not having feelings for Freddie. I thought it was cute. One scene I will always remember from this episode is when Gibby got up on the table and started dancing with his shirt off. That was so funny, and it showed Gibby does have some guts to be himself in public. All in all this is one of my favorite episodes. It was really good.moreless
