The End of iCarly 

The Garbage Ape makes everything alright. Everyone loves the Garbage Ape.

Thank you for putting me on to CJ the X's channel, idgaf about iCarly but I dig your presentation style and was watching your first iCarly video which led me to search for a video about that song they did in the limo which allowed me to discover CJ the X as he did a vid on iCarly too and while that topic still isn't a point of interest for me his media analysis in general is some of the most brilliant shit I've ever seen on RU-vid so thank you for putting me on

Why is the lore wiki always on the Johnmas page?

You need to blacklist other people using "http" in their posts my man, got some heavy spam in the replies today.

Hey Quinton, just letting you know I'm 40, so I actually get the Geraldo Rivera chair joke. Not sure who else will, as I feel I'm the older part of most YT audiences. Great work, glad the drive thing wasn't an issue in the end, or that you got past it by just doing it all over again. You're my favorite new sub this year, and a possible patronage. Huge Garfield fan too.

He is tall, kinda hot and lives in a huge apartment in Seattle so that might also help.

"a renaissance man" I love that description. 10 out of 10.

Spencer is love, Spencer is life

i'd be down for him not even kidding

They make fun if him for cooking good food and find it feminine, and yet they still eat everything he cooks for them.

A time where “himbo” wasn’t in the public vocabulary

A himbo precursor

ahead of their time

himbecile (affectionate)

It’s a god tier term we didn’t appreciate at that time

that's fair, but i think they let it get more overt and unavoidable when it's men.

True and I think that because a lot of it’s guys is cuz Dan Schneider is gross but doesn’t want write something too close to home too often.

It’s a combination of “funny because sexual assault” and “we can get away with it because male victim”.

Say whatever you want about the writing team, they're equal opportunity sex offenders.

boo hoo. sa is funny

“A stand-alone” just the one?? Is that so, quinfield??? Only one?

He didn’t know it at the time but it would be his most viewed video ever

Even with all the Drama it was worth it🥰🥰🥺🥺

1 year earlier: "I could easily make a standalone video talking about Victorious..." 1 year later: "In part 2 of this 13 hour retrospective I'll prove why Jori is endgame."

I had to read that back to fully realize the implications of that sentence. One of the few time a comment just repeating a quote from the video has actually been a good thing

@@ivygirl9119 that would be genuinely hilarious, just this incredibly jacked dude busting through the door and yelling “GIBBEH”

Lmfao

@Dope Cat Non-v!rgin aces, fading out of existence

What the fuck happened I these comments what-

*clumsy profiling in her case

I don't know, I now have a head cannon that the reason she had a star of David in her locker is because she would impersonate Rebecca Berkowitz and get her in trouble constantly, and Berkowitz does sound like a Jewish name

Also it would've been a very funny tie-in to the Jewish characters of Glee

ewwwwwww

​@@AvastYourAssss What? What's ew? Jewish people? Grow up.

Could make an insane Jewish in-joke about faith denial and Bob Dylan, but tbf that’d be a bit highbrow for icarly

The same writer is probably sweating hoping that nobody remembers the episode where Carly, Sam and Freddie are in that mock-spaceship compartment. Nice continuity. Edit: I get it, I was wrong. I didn't remember the space episode that well, and this comment was meant in a jokey way.

@@felixgrayrussell He didn't talk about that episode right? Or did I miss it

@@YaamFel No, I was hoping he'd bring it up but it's such an obscure thing to remember through six seasons.

@@felixgrayrussell it was in the first video he did :D

@@felixgrayrussell pretty sure carly actually mentioned the spaceship episode during her panic attack. so the continuity was still (kind of?) there.

abuse victims don’t owe their parents anything - neither Sam nor Jennette McCurdy

I was thinking the exact same thing. The detail of the food, when her real mother was a significant source of her struggles with an ED, also hits in a really sickening way.

yeah i'm p sure the writers didn't know about her personal struggles with parental abuse when they wrote the episode lol. you guys are acting like the writers knew about her personal life and intentionally wrote the episode based off of it lol

@@inyrui Yeah, I mean working with the kid for years they're never going to even get a hint that things are bad at home.

@@inyrui Right. Because television producers are FAMOUS for only ever upsetting or mistreating child stars by ACCIDENT.

He could've also been Bob The Hairdresser (:

@@goldberry2121 oh my god you’re so right

He could have been a tax collector...Rob.

Cops and Roberts

Ok but this actually would’ve been a great way to address it in the reboot. Technically, they still can but they already kind of had Carly make a brief comment about her dad being in the navy and then the Air Force within the first couple moments of the new season 😭 who knows what we’ll find out

This is canon now. I've decided.

no.

@@rfabsulous YES.

Somehow having somebody from the Air Force and somebody from the Navy having a romantic relation let alone being married would be the least realistic thing about this show because both of those branches absolutely hate each other

you're so right

OKay... How should we call that ship?

S-Bo

Sounds more realistic than him dating Mrs. Benson, even thought they live together🤣

Oh hell yeah. This is canon now

yes but then that would make 70 icrimes and 69 sounds better

Icrimes were the main casts crimes tho, the psycho didn’t get on the icrime list

That’s what I thought

This would have been so much better!!!

agreed, it wouldve given him depth deeper than the audience forgetting that he is, in fact, a grown adult

*suddenly remembers Socko* did...did they drop him as a friend?

I like the idea of it being implied there’s a whole different sitcom playing out in the background that we never get to see except for small references.

I bet Kramer and Spencer would hang out if they knew eachother

a fool asks questions they cannot hope to handle

That goat messed her up

What the goat doin?

i remember them having mentioned her claustrophobia was due to the space madness incident at one point. did I make that up?

@@WildSableye I thought the space madness was her getting claustrophobic and panicking and they just called it that, but idk

@@natk4017 I'm 99.999% sure this was my actual lived experience

If they gave you a smaller amount than expected, would you respond with "BAH humbug"?

​@@natk4017 imagine someone being like "yea so this is what happened in my life" and you decide to tell them that the thing they lived through didn't actually happen lmao

​@@natk4017 I agree

The housing cost for that amazing apartment would take up around 75% of those monthly funds because that place was probably $3,000-$4,000 rent. They'd only have 25% for bills and other living expenses. This doesn't make sense. It's ridiculous.

this is hilarious😭

shut up

Well theres a chance Henry Danger is in the same universe (one of the villians is basically confirmed to be Cats brother) which would make this a possibility. Super powers are cannon in the Nick universe.

One of my takeaways from part 1, having only ever caught an episode here and there, is that Spencer Shay is definitely some kind of demigod

And it’s such a stark contrast to watch the two iCarly videos and only *occasionally* see something offensive or creepy. Like it’s often enough to raise eyebrows and remind you that Dan Schneider was behind these shows, but in Victorious, it is shockingly constant in every episode. It’s like they felt emboldened.

Same and same. I watched the Victorious episode first and Yikes, the difference was stark

LMAO

I do wonder why iCarly didn't have half as many weird "writer's fetish" moments as Victorious

@@HammerToFall13194 Because by the time they did Victorious, they felt they could get away with anything.

T Bo is just a stellar actor

@@janko1 thank you

She broke his script

Someone who used to work at tropical smoothie and has genuinely been asked that question before that too was my exact reaction on the inside

I swear that song is a played a few different times throughout the show

​@@-psilo-9071It is. It plays in the background of maybe half a dozen or so scenes throughout the series

Ok same. Like I’ve had nightmares hearing Spencer say the word prank over and over again lol

it’s an all night party that we’re getting into

Lol the "It was just a praaaaaaaaaank" is even funnier with how the teen actor mouthed it. Also love the prank song. Def was played on Victorious as well so they must've really liked that track.

I don't know if she was re-enacting it exactly. Cause while yes it is fucked up that both the actress and the character Sam had an abusive mom, they were abusive in different ways (except for the pageant thing). Sam's mom was more physically abusive and distant and seemed like she didn't really care about her daughter, the pair always fighting. Jennette's mom was more like Freddy's mom, being overly clingy and controlling. And at the time Jennette didn't realize it was abuse. She thought she and her mom were best friends and worshiped the ground she walked on. Her mom would manipulate her by crying and playing the victim whenever Jennette did something she didn't like.

I'm willing to be that it's pure coincidence especially since abusive/absent parents seemed to be a common thing in iCarly. Also, despite everyone on here saying that the people working on iCarly probably knew the abuse, I honestly doubt it. Abusive parents are not exactly easy to spot unless the person being abused talks about their experiences. And from what we know Jeanette, at that point of her life, hasn't realized that she was in an abusive relationship. Abusive parents are pretty good at seeming like just overly protective parents with clingy children. If it was so easy to spot abuse, no one would've even been shocked at Jeanette's confession. Just cause we're seeing things in a different light in hindsight doesn't mean that those things were apparent/obvious back then. And I'm not defending Dan. He's a piece of shit. But it's tiring seeing people make conclusions that everyone was just in on it and wanted to make Jeanette relieve the abuse she endured behind closed doors for the laughs when we have no actual concrete proof to say that.

Don't forget the episode where we find out that her mother used to force her to do beauty pageants. Painfully, painfully close to reality.

The whole *child abuse as a joke* trend in this series is deeply alarming and horrifying.

i didn’t even put that together. even if it was just some crazy coincidence i can’t help but imagine what jeanette was feeling during this point of her life.

@@ameliacid4146 The new I Carly is astonishingly bad. I was stunned.

I love the T-bo scene with the taco shells and the stick

@@loturzelrestaurant It's super accurate to working fast food or food/customer service Lemme tell you the amount of dumbasses coming in and not even being able to read the menus as its presented over them in bold letters Sometimes people are really that headass Agreed!

@@phataldestroyer I did that once at Dunkin donuts. "do you have coffee" sigh

@@katatat2030 oh yeah, we all have that happen. As a retail worker that goes one of two ways. You hit them with the T-bo “Do we what?” And they either double down or the go “did I really just do that?” If they double down on their question it’s a frustrating encounter. If they say they realized it was a stupid question it could be a humorous experience.

... What?

Where did you learn this, is there a video I could watch?

“You just made that up”

@@starkidbubble2000 the commentor is just pulling things out of their ass

Who's dan?

I've heard this as well. there's a scene in back to the future II, when biff and his gang are launched through big windows of a building, and you can see one of the stuntmen (woman, in this case) not actually hit the window, but the side of the building, where she falls and crumples to the ground. she survived but was so seriously injured! and it's in the movie! and there are many stories about films like that. I feel as though it's due to the unspoken agreement to use the take, as well as it just being more convenient to use that take as opposed to taking the time to find new stunt doubles to film another one. as unorthodox as it sounds, the show really must go on.

That's so werid why would someone want that?

@@-psilo-9071a handful of reasons, I’d assume. 1. Can you imagine getting injured for nothing? Maybe it’s just me, but I wouldn’t wanna go through all that trouble and then get nothing out of it. 2. It would kinda feel insensitive to just replace someone like they’re just a prop, especially if said person went all out for the show. I dunno those are just my guesses

if you get paid to do dangerous stunt for movies you know what you signed up for.

​@@j.2512 Stunts for movies should not be dangerous, they should just look like they are. But if that ever even injures one person, the stunt is not worth it.

I'm curious how Lynch felt/ if she was aware of the abuse as well..

@@Mid-iala my guess is if the production asked Jane Lynch to play Sam's mother, they most likely didn't tell her about Jennette's situation to avoid Jane not accepting the role (now i obvously don't know Jane Lynch but i would hope she would've turned down thet role if she knew it could have caused pain to Jennette) PS: i apologize if my english is bad, it's not my first language

@@letiziavisintin5603 Jane Lynch often plays rude characters, but from an interview I saw about Glee, she's kind irl and any decent person wouldn't take the role

@@letiziavisintin5603 Just wanted to say your English was really good in this comment. It was easy to understand

@@Mid-iala At that point in Jane's life she was married to someone with a preteen daughter. That preteen daughter probably watched iCarly. I don't think it was that deep. She was just doing kid friendly version of Sue Sylvester that her preteen stepdaughter could watch.

Yep, that’s pretty normal.

almost sound like a Always sunny in philadelphia season

@@Raph584 Doesn’t help the fact that Nora’s dad was played by Uncle from that said show .

@@Raph584 I've never seen iCarly, so for most of these videos I got the impression that this is what it'd look like if someone tried to make a kid's version of It's Always Sunny (it also helps that there was literally an episode of IASIP where the characters open a sweat shop)

@@Raph584 It’s always cloudy in Seattle.

This is the only correct answer

wait did you find this in an interview? do you happen to have a link

Ah, he supports Frappy.

he’s right

The best answer. I enjoy the dynamic of the group more when they’re all platonic to each other too.

totally but it's also just a weird joke that it's funny but endearing that sam likes "junk" foods but like fat characters are seen as a joke inherently

@@mirazelkowitz8861 100% agree, a lot of uncomfy stuff happening there

As a child with a weird relationship with food I couldnt watch the fat cake episode bc the part with sam guzzling fat made me so uncomfortable. Obviously it wasn’t actual lard but the idea of jeanette having to film that makes me feel really sad

seriously. it makes me so sad for her, i can’t imagine what it was like to go through that. also, as the first reply said, sam constantly binge eating junk food still appearing very thin and “attractive,” (by nickelodeon at the time’s standards,) yet still insulting fat characters, is SO damaging in SO many ways.

Those idiots don't know jack, they're just a bunch of clowns who think they know better and act all high and mighty on the internet because they have nothing going for them in real life. No it's not your fault, and it's true that you don't owe abusive parents a single thing. Have a good life. 💗

From what it sounds like, she took away a happy childhood, which is something that you notice a lot throughout your life. She didn't deserve to take any more from you. I'm proud of you for standing your ground.

Giving an organ to someone is a massively invasive procedure and a huge sacrifice. No one is entitled to your time or affection, much less your actual body parts. People bullying you on the internet are disrespecting the concept of your bodily autonomy because they couldn’t possibly understand what it’s like to have a parent who would ask for your organ and then refuse a simple conversation with you. I’m so sorry you went through that and hope you’re healing

Sounds like she deserved to die

No. She made up her mind. A heart to heart in exchange for an organ seems like a fair trade to me. You have done nothing wrong, and tried to even close loose ends with your mother before she left. Even if you were to give her that organ, there is no 100% guarantee she would have lived past surgery. Depending on age, health and weight etc. The operation could be a success, but the patient could still die, is what I’m saying. It is not your fault

He likes the pain.

No, it never was. Big reason why the ship SUCKS lol

He likes overbearing, boundary crossing women kinda like his mom

​@SukiNoKoe it really does. I rolled my eyes at Quinton's preference for Seddie. Carly and Freddie deserve each other and I'm so happy they get together in the revival.

@@BrendanJSmithI do too. I mean… Quinton has a right to his own preference, of course, but the show goes out of its way *so much* to show that Sam would be an abusive girlfriend to Freddie, that the idea of it fulfilling the “sitcom enemies to lovers” trope in iCarly is… kind of ridiculous. Like, for me, I think a better idea is that if Seddie were to happen, have both Sam and Freddie bring out the best in each other-have Sam become calmer and less reactionary due to both Freddie *and* Carly’s presence, and have Freddie become more protective and confidant with Sam. To be honest, a couple of ideas I thought up when watching this video is that a good scene could be Sam defending Freddie from Mrs. Benson by telling her she’s being overbearing and is doing more harm than good with her actions, which shows how she is empathizing with Freddie more (and, if this happened prior to them dating, it could end with Freddie gratelfully and happily stating, “No one’s ever defended me like that before,” indicating he might be developing feelings for her) Similarly, another scene (perhaps after they start dating) could have Sam admit she hates her home life but doesn’t know what to do to leave it, and Freddie proposes that when they both come of age, they’ll get an apartment together so they can leave their old, toxic families behind. And granted… even as a Creddie fan from day one, I do admit I see a lot of issues with Freddie ending up with Carly too, since while I think she is nicer, some scenes do imply Carly is more of a “passive” version of Sam (i.e. instead of directly hurting him, she just let’s him be hurt or is opportunistic about using his issues for comedy). Ultimately, though, I kind of feel like this is a bit of a continuous flaw of Dan Schneider’s writing-regardless of the man himself and what he has done, he can’t seem to write sitcom relationships that are, in essence, dysfunctional at best, abusive at worst, and try to play it like it’s just a dark form of comedy.

That's because you, unlike the creator of this video, has a functioning sense of humor.

@@fantom5894 taking it too seriously IS the joke

@@fantom5894 You poor soul.

@@fantom5894 That's the joke, genius. The point is he's taking it way too seriously.

I think this guy doesn't like quinton reviews 🗿

Or just have someone call her out in a later episode then have her say she didn't want to say she's jewish to a cop because they're all nazis.

Infact, I think would've been funnier coming from sam if either of those two lines were said. Just the thought of sam having a specific devout ruleset to her jewish heritage makes sense

I really like the first one. Its actually kinda funny to me.

As a naturally unfunny person, the way idve written it is to have Sam's Mum's first comment in the therapy box to be 'We ARE Jewish', only for Sam to say 'Yeah, but the joke wouldnt have worked otherwise' as a 4th wall break, and then the scene just plays out as normal.

@@farshnuke I don't think the iCarly writers would make dialogue _that_ cringy

Yeah, that was odd to me. They said it was because of #FreeBritney movement that Paramount+ doesn't have the episode there

​@@justjoannak If that's the case, why is the Ginger Fox episode on the service? That's a way more targeted episode towards Britney

That's why the foam weapons are in it. For their dad.

This never even occurred to me 😩

I don’t believe her ED was common knowledge at the time.

@@behest I'm sure the studio knew. A lot of studios even pushed it Thinking of disney and demi lovato. I remember watching this as a pre-teen and my mom coming in the room asking why sam in particular was so skinny (she was a nurse) and stated it looked unhealthy. It's actually funny now because sometimes my parents would make comments about these shows like "why are they dressed so grown?" etc. and I would brush it off as lame parents but now as an adult, I see why my parents were wary because they could see how these studios were selling these literal children as sex objects and abusing them. I watched Jeanette mcCurdy's podcast on youtube and I'm happy she's take a break from acting to work on other projects she's passionate about and that shes doing better now.

@@sydneyjordan2452 i agree, but i’m concerned she’s still not in a good place. she has a lot of rage and resentment. hopefully she can work through it and find some peace.

I noticed this too. Gross

You can even see the floor buckle and the floor panel come up a bit. I initially assumed they'd have padded it under a plyboard, kind of like pro wrestling does...but I guess not given his ribs.

@@sarraphinasorrow Victoria justice had an episode dedicated to her as a different character, nobody would’ve cared

@@sarraphinasorrow The actresses for Tori and Trina both made appearances in the fighting episode and the Nora episode. Freddie’s actor also just shows up in a Victorious episode to watch a play, don’t think they cared

The sad thing is Nickelodeon actually put Big Time Rush on an episode of Marvin Marvin, the failed TV show that barely lasted a season.

Big time rush wasn't created by Dan Schneider, that's why. I bet he refused to let 'his girls' (you have no idea how gross I felt writing that. They're children Jesus Christ) get anywhere near these cute nice boys. Alternatively, and what by far I hope what happened, is that they had ppl looking out for them refusing to let the boys go near Dan. Unfortunately, knowing the level of power he was given and having experience with abusers, I find the first more likely. :(((

Right!!! Knowing the stuff she has shared in her podcast, it retroactively makes a bunch of episodes feel even more gross. It’s like, too uncomfortably on point to feel like a coincidence. And the writers are already so mean spirited in their writing that it doesn’t feel out of the realm of possibility at all that they knew or found out about some of these things about her life and decided to use that as a basis for how they wrote Sam’s character and stories throughout the series. It’s so uncomfortable to watch and I can only imagine how awful it was for her to have to act that out and not really be given any choice to change the situation.

@@AloisKomaeda makes it worse thinking about the episode where she’s basically forced into apologizing to her mom even though she’s in the wrong

@ᴀꜱᴜᴋᴀ ᴀꜱᴜᴋᴀ In her book she talks about hating acting from the beginning and her mom forcing her into it. She quit pretty soon after her mom died. The show joking about Sam being forced into pageants as kid like mirrors Jeanette's life.

@ashy she didn't say Sam is full of shit she says her acting career is full of so much shit. Meaning she went through a lot.

@ashy idk if English isn't your native language but use context clues next time

@ashy what

Sam was my favorite character growing up because I too had an abusive family life, and the other adults in my life just didn't care at all. It helped me cope with the abuse by making a joke out of everything, and helped me survive long enough to grow up and GTFO. I wouldn't say anything cringey like her role in a tween's TV show "sAvEd My LiFe" but I'm not ashamed to say I was inspired. It breaks my heart to hear that she suffered the same, and her suffering was made to be nothing more than a prop for teh funniez. I'm glad she's not going if that's what it was to her, and I'm ashamed of myself that I never saw it from her perspective until just now.

I myself thought the same thing! Like there HAD to be some kind of mattress there or a dummy because there’s no way anybody would just allow a man to bellyflop onto CONCRETE. That made me laugh as a kid… and now knowing that man went through so much pain for my entertainment makes me sick

This is also why "dummy dropping from the ceiling" and associated gags are so funny, because you can really launch those guys *and* no one actually gets hurt.

I also know he was young when it happened and as we've learned filming a Nickelodeon tv show can expose you to stuff that can really alter your world view and tragically make kids grow up far too fast, but Noah didnt seem too phased talking about that stuntman's accident on that podcast which is kinda grim. Heck im not even like trying to give the guy a hard time ive gone through some grim things and responded even hours later with dark jokes or muses on the situation but its still kinda uncomfortable to say the least

What’s worse to me is that Gibby was always supposed to conjure laughs. Like anytime he was on screen, we were conditioned to laugh. So when he (the stuntman) fell, the first instinct is to laugh, since it’s a kids show and it’s GIBBY. Then we are faced with a reality where we laugh at something the writer’s always knew was actually horrible-and they enjoyed that

I also thought it was a dummy because that's.... literally what you're supposed to do at that grand of a fall. Hell, a lot of kid shows couldn't even afford stuntmen so they would use dolls and it was pretty obvious by the absolute ragdoll-ness whenever they would throw the dummy around. So I thought surely they would do the same, even though I thought the "dummy" looked too human. But I refused to believe it was an actual person because it wouldn't make sense that you'd make an actual person fall from that height... right??? Well this video opened that can of worms

Doubt it.

@@rainingtacos7529 over-ruled.

@@agent_star *HOLD IT*

Wait I got a better idea: the dad has a twin/clone🤣 or he switch jobs

Wtf is wrong with the writers, this episode is just uncomfortable and weird. Take the jewish characters, retcon it for no reason, THEN put them in a locked in room by a sketchy doctor???

put some respect on the plain white t’s this instant

That's because that wasn't One Direction at their peak lmao Also...I'd argue it was pretty memorable but I have no clue honestly

I don't even remember the plain white t's episode except for the fact that they performed at the end. The one direction episode I can tell you the exact plot line.

i had forgotten 1D was in icarly. wtf.

@@soph996 maybe I'm stupid but I swear 1Ds peak was then just after X factor when that's what makes you beautiful came out. Maybe that's just from a UK perspective though

Nah I don’t think you are overanalyzing, I always felt that it was implied that she just has these outbursts bc she has anger issues or something, not because she would like anyone. The whole Sam hurts Freddie bc she likes him trope feels to me like it was just made up by the shippers as an excuse and the writers ran with it.

The show never really implied she hurt him because she liked him. Freddie claims she does, but she denies it.

I mean, there's no reason she can't be getting violent urges because she likes Freddie. It's just when she's dating she doesn't want to take them out on him...But that could be just giving the show too much credit.

@@rosalierowan I kind of hate that trope in general, it gives me an icky feeling. It always felt like romanticizing abuse to me

@@royalblanket ppl say in real life too

Im disappointed I get the joke

Lol

Did you honestly spend like 10 minutes calculating both QR videos on icarly just to make this joke?

@@dragonslayer101 10 minutes? This isn’t exactly complicated maths, and I say that as someone who’s sat through enough linear algebra and real analysis I’m not entirely sure how using numbers instead of weird Greek letters actually works.

Writing what they know

It's unfortunate that society looked at troubled youth that way up until rather recently. That episode with Sam's mom would be portrayed VERY differently in 2021, at least assuming Dan isn't the one writing the script of course.

When will he call out Dan Schneider for his crimes?

@@whodatninja439 He did in the last video. I think?

@@platinumdiamond1445 not to my knowledge. He kinda glossed over it. I hooe Part 3 will be the Crimes of Dan Schnider

@@whodatninja439 Don’t worry, he’s making a vid about the whole situation surrounding Dan .

@@BugsyFoga Dan Schneider Fallen Titans maybe?

You are an icon.

Best ship in the show

i’m obsessed with you

Maybe they have an open relationship

love wins

I'm not 100% on this, but Apparently he wasn't actually injured. He was wearing impact pads. His name is Dustin Courtney and his most recent role was in the Matrix resurrections.

@@Door_Into_Summer So his most recent role was on a movie produced BEFORE iCarly was ever a thing? Yeah, not buying that one.

@@antipsychotic451 sorry meant resurrections.

His sacrifice was not in vain

​@@Door_Into_Summer Noah Munck was on a podcast where he recounted the story. He said the stunt man ended up with like broken ribs, and an ambulance had to take him away

30 Rock NSU? 30 Rock NSU.....so we add immortals to the list......or does Kevin fall under angles like magic dolls/ living puppets?

Agreed

🎶mr peanutbutter🎶

I miss when his art mattered. That is something the revival focuses on, at least, though.

​@@-psilo-9071Spencer is basically the only one who goes into the revival better off than he ended the original, which is great for him as a character but just makes what they did to the others sting a lot more

He was also my favorite character, considering we share a name.

He's planning a whole video about the Danster later on.

It's low hanging fruit

@@Direk091 Very much agreed.

@@anone.mousse674 Ahhhhhh, okay.

He blurred out Dan's face in the one scene he was in (the mechanic in the finale)

As much as I love icarly, it was also the show that sparked my hatred for shipping culture. Especially when it's between two clearly incompatible characters. If I was ever to create a show of my own, there would only be well defined and STABLE relationships from start to finish, no room for shipping space whatsoever!

Although I guess you could argue that my theory mandates a sort of pseudo-shipping where I insist upon certain relationships over others. This just can't be easy 🤣

@@rickenman9844 that doesn't stop all shippers lol Some will make up relationships between characters who have no chemistry or ship them all together or something else shipper's gotta ship XD

@@mrh8142 True. It was just so frustrating to me as someone, while not wishing any ill will toward either Sam or Freddie, who realizes that not only are their personalities simply incompatible with one another, but their emotional history already has too much baggage to overcome (years of physical abuse suffered by Freddie at Sam's hands for example).

@@rickenman9844 oh yeah definitely. Imo they should not end up together and if they did, they'd both need therapy (and not with the therapist that worked with sam and her mom)

Yeah

espeaccially because the intro to every episode starts with him counting down like hes starting a livestream.

I felt like that was genius. Has the same vibes as That 70s show ending with the cast at a 1979 New Year’s Eve party counting down into the new year

@@sydneyrocks1999 Wow, that's true. I don't watch That 70's show, but I do agree.
