  • YES ITS GOOOOOOONE

    No more quick comedy that was cheesy. This shows actors acted for cash, not for a comedic reason, just for a quick paycheck. Only a show that is appealing to 10 year olds.
  • An ok show by creator Dan Schneider but it is flawed and far from perfect as Big Time Rush.

    5.5
    Icarly is an ok show for me. I remember when I first watched this show it was great and I had a fun time watching and there were so many parts that made me laugh. But after watching it a few times I began to get bored with it. And the show has many flaws which is why I didn't like Icarly after watching it a couple more times. First of all this show is flawed and far from perfect as the other Nickelodeon masterpiece Big Time Rush. Second it doesn't deliver the goodies of Drake and Josh due to the lack of humor and weak execution and the show itself could have been a lot better. And last but not least the third reason why I didn't like Icarly as much as Big Time Rush is that the show itself is overhyped on the slapstick jokes and I find the whole show to be way too overhyped on the slapstick jokes and if your comparing this to Big Time Rush there's a big difference between the two shows. Big Time Rush has a lot of light comedy jokes and tones and it doesn't have the overhyped slapstick jokes of Icarly which is why I like Big Time Rush over this show. The jokes in this show are way too overhyped and it totally keeps the bar low for one reason. The only thing I like about Icarly is the performances of the casts like Miranda Cosgrove who is so gorgeous and cute even Jennette McCurdy delivers a solid performance and she's just as gorgeous and cute as Miranda nevertheless this is a forgettable show and it could have been better for one reason at least its better than Victorious.
  • The first words I said after iGoodbye ended? YES! THAT DUMB SHOW IS FINALLY OVER!

    4.0
    No. Not ONLY is it a bad influence, but it's awful too.

    The hobo jokes. Really? The creator said he didn't mean hobo in that way. Alright, so if I call someone an idiot, and I say I meant "awesome person" when I said idiot, would that MAKE IT THE MEANING?!



    They talk certain part of the female body. For example, the pageant episode. WHY?



    I try to find a moment where they could go 10 SECONDS without a laugh track. So far, I think I've only seen it in iGoodbye or (maybe) iQuit iCarly. So they only do it in special episodes? -__- At least Good Luck Charlie can go 10 seconds without a laugh track!!! BTW, a live studio audience wouldn't be any better. They TELL people when to laugh.



    I have no problem with "hobknocker" though. Urban Dictionary users just thought it sounded dirty and made up all KINDS OF SICK MEANINGS. Hobknocker is just some nonsensical sword. That sort of annoys me, but whatever.



    How could Dan work on masterpieces like All That and Kenan and Kel but then do THIS? I mean, those were hilarious and this show is awful. I guess he was trying to appeal to the new audience of today's world.



    They also promote cyberbullying. They love to embarrass people in front of the ja-ka-zillions of people watching their webshow. How would they feel if they were the victims of the cyberbullying?



    Sam is so abusive to Freddy and Freddy barely ever stands up for himself. It's really not funny. It just isn't.



    Why Dan Schneider? :(

  • iSh*tty

    1.0
    I consider this one of the worst shows nick has ever made. there's a lot of stuff that pisses me off so much. the show is a bad influence to the kids who watch it. not to mention horrible at the same time.

    I'm going to give out reasons why this show sucks



    1. It's not even funny the humour and punch lines are weak, and don't make sense at the same time.



    2. It treats guys like sh*t one obvious example is sam mis-treating freddie and freddie's too much of a giant chicken sh*t to fight back



    3. they don't perform in front of a live-audience even worse, they spam laugh tracks, mostly at the stupidest parts where nothing funny happens.



    4. they tell kids its okay to make fun of hobos, seriously what's so funny about people who lost they're homes?



    5. they used the word hobknocker look it up on urban dictionary if you dare!



    6. they mention things related to the upper chest area of the female human anatomy, seriously inappropriate for kids



    7. they tell kids its wrong to have your own opinion or speak your mind, be like everybody else. it basically says "agree with everyone else or get scroched!" just like what happened to freddie in the "fred" episode. freddie just said his opinion and he gets scroched over it? that just tosses the term "freedom of speech" out the window.



    Overall rating: why Dan Schneider?
  • One of Nickelodeon's Mediocre Shows

    1.0
    The show centers around three teenagers. Carly Shay, played by Miranda Cosgrove, who also played Megan from Drake & Josh, Sam Puckett, played by Jennette McCurdy, and Freddie Benson, played by Nathan Kress. So one day, she somehow becomes popular through a video called "Talent Show Auditions," (I think that's what it's and I don't see how that video made her popular because it wasn't very funny at Back to the show, she and her friends create a web show called "iCarly" for the fanbase of the particular audience. Now you might be asking yourself, what is the iCarly webshow about? Well, basically, on the web show, they do random unfunny skits, such as one about a cowgirl who thinks the cowboy's mustache was a squirrel, that somehow make the viewers laugh.



    Now, I know this is going to get a lot of negative votes, but this show is unfunny and mediocre in my opinion. One problem I have with this show is that it keeps on spamming the laugh track. I'm not kidding. It's used so much even at points where the jokes aren't funny. It's mostly spammed during their web show.



    Example:



    Sam: Now, before we go..



    Carly: We just want to remind you...



    Sam: That's what the Earth looks like from Outer space...



    (laugh track goes off)



    What the heck? That was not funny at all.



    Another problem I have with this show is Gibby. He is by far the most strangest and worst character in this show. Why? Because:



    1. He takes his shirt off for no reason. This is usually when he dances.



    2. His girlfriend, from what I could remember, is taller than him! Now, it's been a long time, so I don't quite remember.



    3. He has man- well..... nevermind. You don't wanna know.



    Another problem is that its for some reason one of the successful Nickelodeon shows. I don't understand why. It's not funny at all. The only times that made me laugh were the events going around Carly and Co, rather than the web series, which is sad because that is supposed to be the funniest and most important part of the show.



    I have more problems with this show. But that's all I'm going to talk about. If tigerdude22 likes this show, I'm going to get really mad because he's one of the most popular users out there. He should hate this show.



    Overall: 2.5

    Grade: D-

  • Poor show!

    1.5
    I was good until 2008. After that this sucked. The mean, evil, tough, prankster Megan Parker will always be better than the wimpy, sensitive Carly Shea. Drake and Josh beats ICarly by FAR!.
  • Not liking this at all

    5.5
    To be honest, I have mixed feelings about this show...

    I used to hate it a lot last years for being so mean spirited... Nowadays... is still not better

    Well, it was about to be one of my most hated shows ever, but atleast this show has interesting humour... why am I saying that? Shake It Up... enough said...

    I do like how colorful the characters are, but I think Spencer is the best in this show, the only one that gives me a smile everytime, the others are ok and do their best to be funny... which only works usually...

    What I hate about this show is... a lot, but the first thing that comes in my mind when thinking about this show's downsides is: FUCKING STUBBORN LITTLE CHILDREN
  • Icarly is not best but it's NOT nesscuarily the worst!

    8.0
    As I watched the first ever episode of icarly it was pretty descent , somewhat humorous and entertaining but as much as I adore the characters for their individual personalities i got to admit ICarly has been going down hill ever since season 4 5 6 , it seems that it's rare I would laugh at their humor attempt. The Carly cast sometimes say inappropriate words such as ;hob knocker( I decided to search the word and trust me you wouldn't even wanna know the as well i find its not nesscaury they always seem to make fun of hobos but i dont see anything funny about people who are less fourtante and can't get a job its kinda sending a message to kids that its okey to make jokes about 'hobos' . yes. I agree with you guys that kids should NOT be watching icarly well that's why is because its for TEENS (12 and up). The idea of a web show being included was very neat But I think they could of calm down with all the inappropriate stuff or as Sam would say "shizz" ICarly is not a bad show just could of been a little better #nohate goodbye Icarly and thanks for offering everything you have to give nick I give it 8/10
  • iCarly: LOVED

    10
    I love iCarly and I always will. I loved it from the 1st episode to the last episode. I was a bit upset though when Miranda Cosgrove decided not to do another season. But you know what they say good things have to come to an end. I wish they had one more movie.
  • Not horrible, but not all too exciting either.

    6.0

    I have to be honest with you, when I saw Nickelodeon begin to produce a lot of live-action shows that were mostly targeted at 12 year old kids. Not thinking much of it at first, I started to watch one or two episodes. Some of them were pretty good, while others weren't all that. The acting in iCarly is decent enough to be labeled as entertainment for the age demographic it's targeted at, and even for me. Once in a while I will watch iCarly, and the episodes and story lines to those episodes aren't horrible.

  • Mean spirited in almost every way and sending out the wrong morals a child should never learn, iCarly lowers the bar for a kid's show.

    1.0
    iCarly sounded like one of those shows that may have been great with its clever premise, but it's a show that will just make you hate it with all your might and ends up being one of the worst shows ever made. The show stared Miranda Cosgrove, from Drake and Josh, who runs an internet show along with her friends, Sam and Freddie, and have some adventures involving their web show. Now to be fair,the idea of a show based on an internet show sounded interesting. I do admit, the concept alone is very interesting and could've made for one of the best shows ever. Sadly, that's not the case with this show at all.



    At first watching the early episodes wasn't too bad, there was some decent comedy, it had the right amount of randomness in it, and it had decent plots. It had a good concept going for it and seemed to be doing just great with how it was handling it. However, around season 2, the producers got very lazy and turned the show into a mean spirited pile of junk. The charming humor is now nothing but real juvenile humor and is really not funny at all. Some of the jokes themselves are really inappropriate and cruel for no reason, but I'll get to that later in the review. The randomness on the web show and in the show itself has gone overboard. Some of the things they do on the web show now make no sense or anything. The stories are not as interesting and some were already seen on other shows. Not to mention that many of these stories now send a very bad moral message to the audience.



    The acting for the characters was not that good even when the show began. Miranda has a tendency to laugh when speaking her lines. She's also very rude and disobeys Spencer almost every time. She has no respect for authority and thinks she can do whatever she wants to do.



    Sam acts like a spoiled brat throughout the show and treats everyone like dirt. She always makes hobo jokes and something about fried chicken. This is supposed to be funny how? Not to mention she ALWAYS flies off the handle over the littlest of things such as when she wants to be right or something. In particular, she likes to beat up Freddie and hurt him a lot.



    Freddie was pretty good and seemed to be the only one giving effort in his part. Though he did get annoying towards the end of the series and never really grew a spine to tell Sam to stop beating her up. It's a wonder he never filed a restraining order against her. As for everyone else, they were mostly well over the top, especially that bellhop guy in the apartment.



    The show also loves to have constant fights over the most trivial things such as little insults. You can't go 5 minutes into this show without seeing fight after fight after fight. In fact, every episode always has a fight or some petty argument over something irrelevant to the episode. Another problem with this show is that every episode starts with the letter "i". For example, "iwant to stay with Spencer" or "ipilot" it's really stupid and they should try to come up with episode names that don't start with "i".



    Finally, I didn't like the morals the show had to offer. iCarly seems to teach kids that you can get away with doing bad deeds. For example, Sam always beats up Freddie and nobody really does anything about it. So it's teaching our kids that if you fight someone, you won't get in trouble? The characters also have a nice variety of bad words that the kids can speak, which means this show teaches kids to say bad words. In one episode, Carly breaks up with a boyfriend because he likes something girly and cries about how much of a wimp he is. It basically teaches boys and girls that they HAVE to be stereotypical and generic to the max. Then there is the infamous moral in the iMeet Fred episode that teaches kids to NOT have an opinion on anything they disagree on. And if you do have a different opinion, everyone will turn on you and try to kill you(like Freddie nearly getting hit with a flaming arrrow). In the past, cartoons and other live action shows taught us friendship and getting along with one another, but now it's like "Hey kids! Go out and beat up anyone and do anything you please and you won't get in trouble!" Way to teach kids the right things Nickelodeon.



    The Spencer plot points aren't too bad, but they are just really weird and not that funny like buying a huge cup of coffee that you can swim in or obeying a magic meatball. Admitadelly, there were some moments in those plot points where they were kind of funny, but that's not saying much.



    Speaking of the humor, why is most of it about hobos? What's so funny about them? In this day and age, people are unemployed and are losing their homes. Why should I laugh at a group of unfortunate people who are struggling through life and basically starving? Seriously, how disrespectful can you get and tell me what's so funny about making fun of hobos or the homeless?



    If it looks like I am nitpicking here and there, fair enough, but I have seen a lot of the episodes. The morals are terrible, the characters are pretty one dimensional, Sam goes nuts at the drop of a hat, its humor about hobos is cruel and NOT funny in the least bit, and the Spencer plot points are pretty useless and really contribute nothing to the plot. There are moments of funny here and there, but only because of concepts I am familiar with in other shows and what Dan Schneider has done in the past with other shows. Other then that most of the show is bad. What could have been a decent show, got convoluted into a mess because of poor morals, constant fights, and bad humor. This show is just so bad and just so hateful.



    I hate this show so much, I hate how it teaches kids bad morals, to not be different, to follow the crowd, that you're not allowed to be unique, and just how the show mocks homeless people. It is such a miserable show that is not fun, the characters are cruel, and it's so mean spirited. Avoid this show at all costs.
  • An amazing show!

    This is the funniest show ever! I can't believe most people on this site are saying negitive things about it, Wow! A show about two teen girls doing a webshow is boring, But a show about two crazy teen girls doing a crazy webshow isn't! I watch it everyday and is not a bit sad while it's on or even waiting for the next episode, Even repeats are good with icarly! Some people find this different, Werid and just wayyyyy downhill. I don't believe them, To all the people who love icarly, You really know what to watch! And to the people that hate it, Try and make people hate icarly, It's way too hard! GO NICKOLODEAN!
  • Quite possibly one of the worst TV shows ever (along with Hannah idiot Montana).

    This show is pathetic! Why the hell would anyone want to watch this? It's so fricken stupid! It's not even close to being realistic, and the jokes(if you could call them that) are not anywhere near funny. Just sad that's what they are. Not funny. Just sad. And pathetic. And terrible. I saw part of this once and I wanted to throw the TV out the window and shoot the crap out of it cuz this show was so stupid. I can't see how anyone would like it. Fyi, if you're thinking about watching this show, take it from me and don't watch it. Its horrible.
  • A girl creates a webshow with her two friends, Sam and Freddie.

    8.8
    This show is all about a girl named Carly and her friends Sam and Freddie. She creates a webshow in her attic. Sam and her host the show while Freddie works the camera. Spencer is her big brother/guardian. He's the guy who plays Crazy Steve on Drake and Josh. One of Carly's enemies is Nevel. He wants her to kiss him and she won't, so every chance he gets he tries to ruin iCarly. An annoying character in the show is Mandy. She's Carly's #1 fan and wouldn't leave the iCarly crew alone. She left them alone for a while but then brought the iCarly website... and then sold it to Nevel (she didn't know he was Carly's enemy). That's my review of iCarly.
  • iWould love it you'd stop making titles that start with 'i'

    Hi, I'm back with a new review. Yay. I guess. Do I have fans?

    OMG ANYWAY

    I used to like this show.. back when it was good. Now it's all awful, just as most TV shows get after a while.

    Characters: Why am I doing this? Ugh. All the characters have personality, which is good, but not good personalities. Sam sets a bad example for younger kids. She's constantly beating on poor Freddy and she's lazy as hell. Freddy is a coward and can't stand up for himself. Ever. Carly bothers me. I couldn't tell you why, but she does. Spencer and Gibby are probably the only likeable characters in the show.

    Episodes: They started off good, but now they're kind of pointless and uninteresting. Like the epiosde where Freddy and Sam kiss. That's not for /all/ audiences. Little kids probably don't take much interest in that. Plus there's that one episode about Fred. Freddy states his opinion and everyone hates on him for it. We're talking about Fred, the annoying internet (and apparently TV) star, not religion. We don't need to shoot arrows at some kid for not liking Fred.

    Plots: The show is about three teenagers running a webshow. Orginal, I'll admit, but now it's kind of lame.

    Humor: Bleh. Half of it funny.

  • Not Exactly What I Call a Good Show

    5.0
    Before I start, I'm just going to say that I enjoyed season 1 of this show. It had a good amount of humor, the plots were interesting, and the storylines flowed pretty well. But after season 2 came around, nearly all the humor disappeared. But before I start on the humor, lets begin with the characters. We have Carly, who was OK around the first season, but after the next seasons, she turned into nothing but a spoiled brat. Freddy is one of the only characters I liked, for he was the only with an actual personality. Spencer is a character I also like, but I felt like the actor was giving too much. As for Gibby, he was just downright annoying and not funny at all. But the worst character by far is Sam Puckett. She is never grateful for anything, only cares about herself, and is downright a bad influence towards children. And what I mean by that is the fact that she always beats up Freddy and never gets in trouble. The acting itself is mediocre and could be done better. As for the main plot, it is original, but executed very poorly. But the worst aspect of this show is the humor. Like I said before, season 1 had good humor, but in the other seasons, it's nothing but cruel and unfunny humor. The humor in seasons 2+ is pretty much about hobos. I mean, what's so funny about hobos? People are unemployed right now, and all Dan Schneider can do is just make a big joke about it? I really expected better from him.





    This show did seem good at first, and the first season was good, but the other seasons were nothing but a mess. The fact that this show is plagued with unfunny and cruel humor and uninteresting characters makes this show very hard to like. Just pass this one up and watch Drake and Josh instead.





    Presentation: 8.5/10 The story is good enough and the plots are interesting as well.





    Acting: 5/10 The acting itself can be improved a lot, and the actors give too much effort.





    Entertainment: 4/10 Unbearable. Why does every joke have to be about hobos?





    Lasting Appeal: 6/10 Season One is very watchable. However, pass yourself up on the other seasons.





    FINAL SCORE: 5/10 Meh

    This show is stupid,boring and unpredictable,it's about this girl named Carly Shay and she gets her BFF'S Sam,Freddie and her brother Spencer to help her with this silly website called Icarly.I really dislike this show and they're's too many insultive moments.This show has to get bummed or else.
  • Why does this show have high ratings?

    I found out about this show when my friend Brynn was talking about it and laughing at it, but when I watched it, I didn't exactly find it funny. It should be called ''I should of made a better

    Ok. Seriously this show is horrible. Its about some loser kids putting on a stupid show to get attention. While it not as bad as Shake It Up, the characters are just bland idiots who can't make people laugh. The laugh track comes on so much its like they put a 5 year old in charge of it. And like I said, none of that stuff is funny. I don't know why people find this crap funny, but then again, that's just me.





    The plots are Just Sam and Carly fighting all the time or some threat to icarly and the joke are just repeats of other jokes. Some are disturbing, like when Freddie said after Carly said he and Sam didn't kiss in a while, "My lips are starving!" What the hell? That's not funny, that's just disturbing. Dan Schnider, what the hell is wrong with you? Whoever wrote these jokes should sit down and watch some Laurel and Hardy, that will show them what real comedy is. Also, what's with the homeless jokes? What's so funny about homeless people? I don't find anything funny about this joke. The plots are just the same crap over and over again. It gets bland after a while. Gibby is DISGUSTING. Thank God he doesn't take his shirt off any more. Every time I see him, it's always rip your shirt off, and "GIBBBEEEHHHHH!" It's disturbing as hell.



    I'm glad this show ended, and whoever finds it funny needs to watch some REAL comedy.

  • A teenager gets the chance to speak her mind up by her own web cast. Genius.

    9.1
    We discovered Miranda Cosgrove on "Drake and Josh" as the evil Megan: the little girl that put pranks on everyone like it was her job, this time around it's completely the opposite! Carly, who lives with his 26 year old creative and crazy brother Spencer, is a girl that marches at her own drum. Along with her best friend Sam, whom is a "vicious" girl that is always hungry and who's favorite hobby is making fun of other kids, specially Freddie, who hangs with Carly and Sam all the time, and serves as the tech producer of iCarly (on the show)Freddie is in love with Carly, but she makes him understand that they're just good friends. The show is refreshing, funny and highly entertaining. It's like something we haven't seen before, so I predict great things for it. Nickelodeon is back on track.

    iCarly started great and funny but over the years it got kinda old. It was the funniest thing ive ever seen!!! But seriously did yall watch the comercial before the last episode came on? The comercial was horrible!!!! They sai at the end that they saved the best for last!!!! That was the worst episode of iCarly!!!!!! it wasnt funny at all. It didnt make sense whn freddie called sam on his stupid phone and said "wanna get bAck together?" but he enjoyed it when Carly kissed him???? And how could carly move to italy when she didnt even finish high school yet???? They were supposed to graduate and go to college!!! But dan schnieder had to ruin it when it was getting started!!!! They didnt even finish it completely. What if we wanna know how missy is doing or mrs. Bricks, or principal franklin, or mrs benson, or TBO.. The lAst episode SUCKED!!!! they couldve done better than thAt. And if that was their best then thatz just sad.

    Ok. Seriously this show is horrible. Its about some loser kids putting on a stupid show to get attention. While it not as bad as Shake It Up, the characters are just bland idiots who can't make people laugh. The laugh track comes on so much its like they put a 5 year old in charge of it. And like I said, none of that stuff is funny!



    Characters:

    Carly is a girl who smiles all the time and is super whiny. She SUCKS. She mostly worries about herself and practically ruins the show with her forced acting and happy go lucky attitude and always smiling all the damn time.







    Sam is anthor idiot who constatly picks on Freddie. She usually and constantly always tells offensive jokes and practically destroys her fair share of the show too. And if ANYBODY can call this inconsiderate jerk as a best friend or role model, then that proves how clueless people are about Sam.







    Freddie is a computer nerd whos talents are ignored mostly. I used to like him as a character, but now I can't stand him. He's always popping in and saying something offensive to someone.





    Spencer is the most imature guardian. He is so lucky that carly didn't get some brain injury (but I have a feeling that's gonna happen). Also much money does he get anyway on an artist's salary? Because I'm sure as hell they can't afford that apartment. His plot lines only serve as terrible comedic value and show the worst of what this show barely offers.





    Gibby is DISGUSTING. Thank God he doesn't take his shirt off any more. Everytime I see him, it's always rip your shirt off, and "GIBBBEEEHHHHH!"





    The other characters are horrible portrayed bad actors which is why some work for disney now. Freddie's mom is annoying and Chuck, Lewbert, T-Bo and everybody else are just HORRIBLE!





    The plots are Just Sam and carly fighting all the time or some threat to icarly and the joke are just repeats of other jokes. Some are disturbing, like when Freddie said after carly said he and sam didn't kiss in awhile, "my lips are starving!!!!" WTH!! That's not funny its disturbing. Dan Schnider, what the hell is wrong with you!! And whoever wrote these jokes should go to jail for poisoning kid's minds. And then they make fun of homeless people and treat them like shit or a totally different species.





    The jokes CANNOT be classified as jokes. People have already said this, and I AGREEE!









    Overall: Thank God nick is ending this, though I wish that finale aired in september or sooner so that I can throw a huge party. The characters suck, the jokes are digusting and the laugh track is annoying. At least it's better than disney, right?................right?

  • The SECOND yes, SECOND worst show ever!

    1.0
    This is another one of Nickeolodeon's fails of a show. iCarly has so many flaws that you could easily point out in seconds and there's nothing funny about this despite the fact that it's labelled as a 'COMEDY' show. Yes, 'COMEDY'. So, anyway, let's get to the point:



    The characters/acting skills:

    The acting skills portrayed here are as poor as shit. The actors with the exception of Freddie (Nathan Kress) and Spencer (Jerry Trainor) are not even trying plus their acting seems pretty forced if you ask me. The majority of character personalities are either passable in some cases, poor or questionable. So, let's get to the details:



    Main characters:

    Carly: She is meant to be the all round 'nice, sweet girl'. Really, she's not. She is a spoiled little brat who gets let off the hook for absolutely everything and she controls Spencer WAY too much. She is whiny and throws tantrums like a 2 year old. The actress (Miranda Cosgrove) is way better on Drake and Josh, than this trainwreck. Also, she is one of the few characters to abuse Freddie, Nevel or Gibby whenever Sam does it so she's one of the bad examples on the show because she teaches you to follow abuse from someone else.



    Sam: The stereotypical 'tomboy'. She is an absolute BULLY rather than a tomboy because she abuses Freddie VERBALLY and PHSICALLY and that god awful laugh track plays when it's 'funny'. How is abuse funny? Sam has also been sent off to prison numerous times as well as a MENTAL hospital and that meant Carly, Spencer, Freddie and Gibby had to break her out. But in the iCarly universe, they DON'T get arrested because the police recognise their webshow whereas in real life, you would be arrested + Carly and the gang would be tried as adults as well as being accomplices. She only cares about herself and meat and she is another bad example because she teaches kids that it's OK to beat up random people for the fun of it as well as going to PRISON and a MENTAL HOSPITAL.



    Freddie: One of the few characters I kinda like although his personality after Season 1 is questionable. He is the nerd and is one of the few targets of Sam's abuse. But, although he's 50% - 75% likeable, I have one thing to say about him: GROW A PAIR! the reason I say that is because he's got no courage to stand up to Sam, I'm a girl and if that were me, she'd get beat up straight away and I'd quit the webshow! But, another thing is that he teaches kids that it's OK to accept bullying and not to tell anyone.



    Spencer: The so called 'guardian/older brother' of Carly. For me, again is the same as Freddie, but he needs to stop giving Carly what she wants and LAY DOWN THE LAW! I don't see Spencer as an authority figure because he rarely notices what's going on and he lets Carly walk over him. Spencer, you need to man up too! Other than that, his plots are funny in some cases.



    Minor/extra characters:

    Nevel: An annoying 11 year old trying to bring iCarly down. Although he's annoying, I feel sorry for him in ways seeing as he's another target of Sam and Carly's abuse. He is also a 50% likeable character in some ways but doesn't make me laugh.



    Gibby: Yet again, another target of Carly and Sam's abuse. The whole 'taking off his shirt and GIBBEH!!!' thing easily gets old however but Gibby is passable.



    The plot:

    Boring, generic and the putting 'i' in front of everything as episode titles is old and stupid. The same thing is being copied for two of Disney's ***ed shows, A.N.T Farm and Austin and Ally. The plots don't make sense like the pilot episode, I mean how can you post a video and then get millions of views THAT QUICK?



    The jokes:

    Unfunny and offensive. The jokes are often about hobos (poor people) which is offensive because we actually get poor people finding it hard to lead a suitable life as well as living in bad economies or 'fat jokes' (Gibby) which is also offensive judging his weight as well as well as Sam beating up random strangers. The laugh track is annoying because it repeats every time which gets annoying and makes you want to tune out.



    Overall summary and rating:

    An unfunny, offensive and generic show with repetitive plots, a stupid webshow with gross parts like making chicken noodle soup in a toilet, one-dimensional, subpar/passable, or questionable characters as well as offensive, violent scenes with no values.



    Rating:

    Characters: 1/10. The only reason I give 1 is for Spencer and Freddie's efforts in trying because everyone else doesn't care or can't be bothered.

    Plots: 0/10. Boring and generic.

    Jokes: 0/10. Offensive and unfunny. The only funny thing is most of these's actors ATTEMPTS in acting. Where did Nickeolodeon find these people?



    Nickeolodeon, cancel this, the horrible merchandise and every other rubbish show you've produced since 2010 and put on classic re-runs. By now, you're following Disney's route.

  • The same mind who created Drake and Josh created this? I think Dan Schnider is great... but this show stinks. I wouldnt be surprised if the next episode of ICarly is called ICanceled.

    ICarly has become more than disturbing.... It goes from, "We need to break Sam out of detention to do ICarly!" to this, "We need to break Sam out of a mental hospital to do ICalry!" A mental hospital crosses the line! I know a six year old girl who watches this show. Does she need to be learing about mental hospitals? No. The show has become more than enough inappropriate, and Im not even an adult. They have said boobs, holy crap, and uses constant violence. I mean they make backpacks for little girls! This show isn't really even fun to watch, like it was the first season. The show has become to random, and just confusing. Here's some problems with the show.




    Problem #1 Treatment of Freddie- Freddie, (mostly in the first seasons), is treated terribly! When I first began watching this show, I thought, "Oh this will be funny. Sam will be constantly making jokes about Freddie." But it just got worse. By the second season, Freddie was being violated and abused by Sam constantly. In fact, in one episode, Freddie shows being scared of Sam. This is terrible! I know its acting, but I still feel bad for him... TV Shows, especially kids shows, aren't supposed to make you feel uncomfortable. In one episode, Freddie even picks up a jumbo knife and holds it up to his neck. Then, he puts it down and says, "No Freddie, bad thoughts lead to bad actions." I guess this is kind of a lesson, but for a little girl (ICarly's main audience) it shows what suicide looks like. -_-




    Problem #2 Responsibilty- Ok, so there's like two main authority figures in this show: Spencer, and Mrs. Benson. Mrs. Benson is never respected and just made fun of, by Sam of course. Spencer says yes to virtually everything. The one episode that he actually said no to something was the episode when Carly wanted to go to an MMA fight. These are very dangerous, and Spencer tells Carly no... for the first time. Well guess what, Carly throws a little tantrum, just because she didnt get one thing she wanted. She can go rob a bank if she wanted, but this one thing upsets her that much. So, she ends up sneaking out, and when Spencer finds out, he goes to the MMA fight to bring Calry home like a responisble adult. So, the wrestler that Calry and Sam ae interveiwing mistakes Spencer for a mean stranger, so he throws him against a wall! Spencer was trying to be responsible, and he gets thrown against a wall. -_- So, Carly, Freddie, the wrestler, and Sam bring Spencer home (while unconiuos). The wrestler gives one quick apology, and Carly forgives him, (like she is the one who needs an apology here), and then they leave Spencer on the couch, and go upstairs and have a dance party with the wrestler... -_- That is awful!




    I only have one minor compliment for the show, but it also has a bad thing about it.




    Compliment #1 Plots- I must compliment Dan Snchider, who is known for his original ideas, for giving the show some pretty intresting story lines. But still, the problem is, the kids always end up ok, even when they go do something very dangerous. They never learn. Now I'm not saying that I want them hurt and dead, but It shows kids that no matter what you do, you can wing it and nothing will happen to you. It's a bad lesson. But I must admit again, the stories are good.




    So, if your a parent reading this, make your own decision, but I would say NO to this show in your house. If your a teen like me, I'm not trying to be a stick in the mud, but this show is just disturbing and stupid, so your really wasting your time watching it. Go watch a show like Adventure Time. It still has that adult humor, but its alot more fair.

    While I wish I could give you higher, I truly can't. iCarly started off strong. A great show but then episodes started spreading too far away from the original ones. Episodes stopped revolving around the title of the show iCarly and more about their personal lives. It was good at first but then it just got plain annoying. And in the last couple seasons where was Spencer and his sculptures? Those were the funniest things Spencer did and the writers took it out of the later episodes. If that was the case they should have let him go to law school. It was good to end it right now. It was truly getting a bit crappy.
