Carly was the main issue with her relationship with Griffin. The iDate A Bad Boy episode perfectly displayed how shallow Carly can be. She first only liked Griffin for his looks/his bad boy image. And when he was vulnerable with her and she saw that he liked something she considers childish & girly, she made fun of him to her friend. She then tries to “fix” him by buying him a power drill. Such a bad message to kids, it teaches young boys to be overly masculine and young girls to not accept men that aren’t overtly masculine 100%.

why do nearly all of carly’s boyfriends look like different versions of each other😀

The audacity Carly had to judge Griffin...as if her webshow wasn’t childish too.

you should rank spencer’s girlfriends!!!!

Honestly they really did do my boy Griffin dirty. Even when I was younger when I watched this episode I always felt like Carly and Sam were bullying Griffin for just having a hobby. If you think about it, Carly finds his collection basically cringe and childish but what if he felt the same way about iCarly? But he never did he was always a real homie

i rly liked the dude who had a plush toy collection but carly was stupid enough to dump him bc he wasnt the type of guy she expected

“He’s trash, I don’t like him, and I am very excited to see him in the reboot.” sums up my feelings about Nevel really well. He’s so good at being horrible.

Miranda Cosgrove said her dating life isn’t the best (and she tells Jerry all the stories), which I find kinda funny cuz that’s the exact same for Carly

I'm loving all the comments about how griffin deserved better- i've always felt that way too. but hey, at least we got the legendary "bagels I didn't even want" scene (further proof that jerry trainor carried that show)

I found it really creepy that so many 'love interest' tried to kiss Carly without her consent. It's wrong, and even more in a kids show...

iCarly has literally the most chaotic relationships ever. "They were supposed to go on a date but T-Bo shot him in the head with a lemon." "oh that's embarrassing that he still likes stuffed animals." "I just find the whole concept of wanting to get revenge on someone because they don't reciprocate the same feelings towards you is a pretty twisted concept" "And next we have Kyle, who was the snobby British guy..."

I like Seddie but NOT how the show wrote them. I like their potential a LOT more than what actually happened-they could’ve been a really good frenemies to lovers plot :/

A lot of these love interests, as well as Carly herself, aren’t really good people, but i feel that’s a pretty recurring trend in Dan Schneider shows. Maybe it has to do with the comedy style being more mean-spirited compared to Disney shows. Granted, often that ends up making the shows funnier and more distinct. A double-edged sword

Young Freddie makes me so uncomfortable now. He definitely tows the line between "friend who has a big crush" and "stalker", but often leaning more towards stalker

GRIFFIN WAS DONE DIRTY! Carly was in the wrong on that one

Honestly, if I had been Carly with Griffin, I would've found him even more attractive after he opened up to me about that.

Carly and Gibby would be an odd pairing, but I strangely like them. She was so nice to him, like in the Speed Dating episode, she told Sam that she was planning to ask Gibby to the dance (yet declined Freddie). And in the iEnrage Gibby episode, when Sam & Freddie were confused how Gibby got Tasha, Carly says, “c’mon Gibby’s sweet, cute, fun, and nice”. And then the Seddie episodes, they were so awkward but I liked their interactions.

They did Griffen SO DIRTY. When I rewatched it and he showed carly showed his stuffed animals that made me like him even more🥺🥺 he seemed like he would’ve treated carly so well and it makes me so mad she didn’t appreciate that

FUN FACT: Steven from iParty from Victorious is Trish’s old skater boyfriend Jace from Austin and Ally.

I noticed Austin (the interruptor guy in iSpeed Date) was interrupting Carly during their speed date too, Carly just didn’t notice due to their limited time together

I’m glad Freddie moved on in the iCarly revival because neither Carly and Sam deserved him. However, if they do make Creddie happen, I’d support if they showed us how good they are. Cuz in the original show, they always told us how nice Carly is to Freddie but never showed it. Like the Valerie episode. Carly says that she always says how important Freddie is...yet we’ve never seen it. All we saw was her taking advantage of him by using his crush to get him to do stuff. Like in the pilot she asked him to stay after Sam was just rude to him and the episode with Austin Butler.

The way I forgot 90% of these characters existed

Apparently Carly and Freddie will have ‘romantic tension’ in the revival, and with Miranda as executive producer, I believe their relationship will be in better hands. I’m actually really looking forward to their relationship as adults and how their friendship possibly evolves more organically without the whole forced love triangle thing.

Seriously though! If I found out a guy I liked had a bunch of stuffed animals I’d like him 100% more!!!!

Fun fact: Griffin plays Jesse in Hannah Montana Edit: WOW thank you for all the likes

So is no one gonna talk about how Griffin has a KATY PERRY calendar on his bedroom wall !!! I never noticed that before !!!

Caitlin: so number one is… Me : pls be Harry Style Caitlin : Lance Me : 👁👄👁 😢😢😢

Griffin needs to come back in the revival so Carly can make things right with him, he deserved better!

I always think it was so weird that Carly and Lance had their date while she was still in the bath cause like, she wasn't wearing trousers/pants. And she couldn't put them on cause her toe was stuck. So they had that whole thing while she was half naked

As a Creddie shipper, I think Freddie deserves better. He’s so pure and I love him

re: the love triangle between the three friends... i really wish they gave freddie a real love interest outside of the two of them. looking back, honestly neither couple was really great in my opinion (creddie/seddie ppl pls be gentle) bc on carly & freddie, they were so platonic that them dating just felt weird and also because they kissed again AFTER he had dated sam, it felt even more like a throwaway plot line rather than something being worked towards (at least if that was what they were trying to achieve) so it never felt real to me. i do think though they had a better foundation to date because they were such good friends unlike the next couple (so if they explore this plot again in the reboot and rlly properly write it, it may work) as for seddie, i do love a good enemies to lovers thing but honestly, rewatching how mean (and i know it's just a show) mean sam was to him turned me off and how much they really did not connect at all. like it's one thing to be opposite, but literally they had no real thing in common and no real connection aside from i guess some physical chemistry which showed in the few episodes of them dating, there was just nothing there to build any real semblance of a relationship. like what carly says in the ep where they break up, it felt like two people forcing themselves to be together. tldr: i think each should have dated someone else. i dislike it when shows try to force cast members together when it doesn't make sense. and idk, not everyone needs to be in love. great guy and gal friendships are just as important! **also, the fact carly dumped a guy for owning toys versus him actually stealing smth...i will never get over how dumb that was

Carly judging griffin for the toys he owns and not the type of person he is was kinda shallow definitely wasnt her best moment I hope she grew out of that tho

I just feel that other then the dream Carly and Gibby ship. Carly was really shallow with all of her relationships. To me it felt like she wanted to be in a relationship because that was what was done. Not because she was emotionally ready for a relationship and had found someone she wanted to be with.

I am so glad someone brought up how much Carly and Gibby were hanging out in the later seasons. I even liked them together when I was younger.

I used to kind of wish that instead of giving Carly so many trash relationships they gave more screentime to Spencer doing Spencer activities

Honestly, I think part of the problem with re-watching childhood shows is that they do a lot of petty bs that we didn't think twice about as kids (b/c it was kinda okay then) but now that we're older, we see the toxic problematic bs for what it is and it kinda sours your outlook on the show. Like for example, I re-watched Kim Possible recently and bro I literally never noticed how petty and shallow she could be when it came to certain things until I rewatched it. So while it doesn't necessarily make it unwatchable for me now and I still like the show, I kinda feel some type of way about the pettiness.

As shallow as Carly was being, I find Freddie's reaction to finding out Griffin collects Peewee Babies priceless. 😂

it’s the “Hey Stephen” tay’s reference for me... LOVE IT

if the beanie baby guy isn't at the top we RIOT

I actually just did a rewatch of iCarly and hadn't remembered much of Gibby besides him just being there. I loved that episode of him buying that puppy and honestly I feel like they could've ended up together if things were different. I feel like the show really bullied him and I don't know if it would've felt right to have him end up with her. For that one episode though it felt more natural than Carly with anyone else in my opinion. If you did a video about The Naked Brothers Band and/or H2O I would literally die. Two of my obsessions growing up!

Griffin was really done dirty, I really like his character of being a bad boy with a soft side, because it's unexpected and that's what I really liked about him, because it made you think about judging people by their appearance, and I love seeing that in movies or TV.

I never realised that Carly was so sweet to Freddie, but when you talked about it.. YES, they were kinda cute

i still cant get over the fact she broke up with a guy just because he owned some plushes. like who tf wrote that episode? XD

“He’s trash, I don’t like him, and I’m excited to see him in the reboot” literally my exact opinion on Nevil

Nevel deserves last place but he was too funny to for me to want him to be there🙈his presence just made me laugh. He talks so polite and like he’s reading a poem. Like when he says, “I stole a kiss upon your cheek, now another kiss I seek” and “a kiss I seek, upon your lips, no not your cheek”.

Griffin's appearance in the heat wave episode was ICONIC

it feels like a lot of the reasons why her love interests and exes were all bad was bc the show was trying to make freddie look like the best option comparatively, but in doing so made freddie and carly's (romantic) relationship boring. or i guess it's more like, they focused so much on the romance with other love interests they forgot to give freddie and carly any romance to give a satisfying ending to the show

Do I know anything about iCarly? No. Am I going to watch this video anyway simply because I adore Caitlin? Absolutely.

Not gonna lie, younger me was all for the Creddie ship. I don't know, maybe it was just because it was mostly one-sided on Freddie's side, and I sorta always root for the one-sided pining. Though, the writers on the show were just terrible at writing relationships. But when they do decent jobs of Carly and Freddie in episodes like iSaved Your Life and iSpeed Date, I can't help but ship them.

The rare moments Sam and Freddie had throughout earlier episodes were great. And it made me ship them a lot. But I agree it fell apart after iomg. They had no clue how to do their relationship. Also I love seeing you do Nickelodeon shows. Did you ever watch house of Anubis? I feel you’d like it!

finding out you ship puckentine was the best thing I've heard today

As a Kid I always felt Sam had feelings for Carly. As an adult, I still believe it.

I’m loyal to Creddie tbh. Seddie was deeply toxic and abusive and honestly such an awful and dangerous example for easily influenced children.

Yesssss Nickelodeon binge!! Also I’m in the middle of watching Big Time Rush. It’s so good!! I’m also watching Victorious for the 20 time and Icarly again. I already watched Sam and Cat again, but Nickelodeon is just so good!

To be honest, as a kid back when I was in middle school, the Beanie Baby episode kinda made me feel a bit insecure because I also had a lot of weird hobbies I was very passionate about, so it kinda made me feel like if anyone found out about them then no one would want to date me. Luckily I grew out of that and just simply found happiness in what I was doing without worry of finding someone, and because of that I'm now dating someone with the same exact weird hobby I have who loves how passionate I am! Never date someone who makes you feel like you have to hide a part of yourself. Your passion is wonderful!

Carly was SO shallow. she was the toxic one in most of her relationships.

fred has had terrible love interests too, he basically spent the whole show in love with someone who was clear about not wanting him and he kept pushing desperately and then he ended up in a relationship with someone who spent a lot of time bullying him (there was also that ex girlfriend who was just using him for her website)

I feel like Carly and Freddie will definitely happen in the reboot

What about Harry Styles? He liked her when he got sick

Griffin was done so dirty for no reason, but also Carly was in her tweens/teens? So it’s understandable that she’s selfish and shallow most people are at that age.

Nevel was a creep but he was a creep with ✨style✨

You should check out degrassi, every witch way, the thundermans, are you afraid of the dark, Bella and the bulldogs, make it pop, power rangers, supah ninjas, and the haunted hathaways. All of these are classics in my mind. Edit- I haven’t seen these since I was a kid so they may all actually suck.

I love hearing her talk about anything, just how passionate she is is really genuine and nice

I'm literally crying YOU PUT KIETH AT NUMBER 4 AND HE GOT HIT WITH A LEMON 😭 I honestly love that placement it's so funny

Whenever Carly and Freddie kiss it makes me physically recoil. It just feels very gross. I think it’s because they have that brother sister vibe. Then again, Sam and Freddie kinda make me uncomfortable too because they are so young in all of those scenes

lmao yall forgot harry styles coz that was literally one of the worst ones, which isn't shocking bc I dunno how they would even plan him out as a decent love interest when he just shows up for one episode

I just see the guy who plays griffin as jessie on hannah Montana and I love him. Perfect guy for Miley/Hannah. Who cares if he has a collection beanie babies (i know it is not the made up name. I don’t care). We all collect stuff that foes not seem normal. Agree. Not a deal breaker.

Why was almost every love interest introduced in the show the worst person?

the amount of shows you’ve watched recently is actually so impressive

this came at the perfect time, im rewatching the show right now!! THANK YOU CAITLIN

ok but this is the video i never knew i needed

Oh my gosh thank you for doing this!!

Big Time Rush is a great show. Also I really like Nickelodeon, so I'm happy you are doing videos over some of the shows.

this video was such a good idea thank you

omg icarly i love that show cant wait for the reboot!

I love how you went through the whole Griffin part without mentioning that he is Jesse in Hannah Montana

You should watch How to rock next!

So excited for more Nick show content!! I definitely watched more shows on Nick than Disney as a kid so it'll be fun to get your thoughts on those shows and their ships haha

Yessss so glad you did an ICarly video!

I was waiting for someone to make a video about seddie, so I can say that I liked them when they had feelings for each other but weren’t together, that was pretty adorable. When they got together it just went 📉

I thought I was the only one who remembers “The Naked Brothers Band” do a video on them please!!!!😭😭😭🤣

From your list, I love House of Anubis. You should do a video about that

I am so excited for your House of Anubis videos.

The Carly and Gibby just made me think of that ICarly clip without the laugh track. 😂 Also, I'll support Creddie if it's done well but I do love the boy/girl just great friends (especially since he had a crush in the beginning)

My favorite love interest that Carly had was Freddie because I thought they such great chemistry.

oh yes the queen has posted

This is the video I didn't know I needed until I saw it on my recommendations

I mean, i agree that Carly was wrong for making fun of Griffin for his plush toy collection, but didn't he stole Spencer's motorbike in the episode before? Idk, i don't remember that well, but I think he did. Carly should've broken up with him then, but bc she only liked him for being a "bad boy" she ignored that he stole from her brother, and then got all mad only cuz he loved plush toys ¿¿?? Like, girl, you need to sort out your priorities

Thank you for talking about consent for both sides. I was worried you would only talk about consent with Carly.

I needed this inspirational content thank youuuu

I loved Isaved your life especially in a deleted scene where girls are like hey Freddie is back aaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh!!!!!

You should do this for Tori, because I want to see your opinions on her love interests.

Please do a video on H2O! It's such a good show, and all the ships are awesome!💗💗💗 (as long as you ignore the dumpster fire that is season 3)

Omg nickelodeon I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR IT

I lovd this

I believe Griffin was done dirty with Carly dumping him over peewee babies, but she did have a legitimate reason to dump him. He punched a hole in his wall because he was mad at a friend. To me, that screams anger management issues.

The best they can do to justify Sam's absence from the new ICarly series is that she's married to Cat or on their honeymoon. I will not accept another explanation.

You should definitely watch NBB!! I would love to hear your opinions on it considering it’s such a forgotten show

you’re really pretty (also amazing video, i loved it but you’re just so pretty i had to comment)
