iCarly

Nick has started re-running this series and it reminded me of how really solid it was from start to finish. It was a combination of three key factors - great series concept (teenage girls running their own daily webcast), fantastic ensemble casting, and really good writing show in and show out. Victorious took awhile to get going, ended up being okay, but nothing Nick in this genre has ever consistently scored like this. Maybe nothing ever scored like this in the teen genre. Miranda provides the core of the show, Freddie is the ultimate good guy without being overdone, while Sam is a unique teen show character for the ages. Like early SpongeBob, this show has amazing viewing range, my 9 year old watches it regularly now (as my 13 year old did in its first run), and I've enjoyed each episode. Unlike SpongeBob, this show ended at exactly the right time. Kudos.

iCarly captures a not-so-common life of a pre-teen girl perfectly. A smart, witty, funny girl and her best friend Sam have cool life having an awesome hobby (a TV Show), a spacious condo or apartment and her guardian is her 26 year old brother. It is one of those few shows where it's centered around a teenage girl, but guys can relate to it really well especially with the eccentric Spencer and the adorable yet sometimes annoying Freddy. I like iCarly mainly because I am a sucker for 21st century sitcoms and dramas like Drake and Josh and sometimes Zoey 101. Some of them may be girly but I love watching how kids/teens act with everyday things encountering their life. iCarly has a well rounded personality making this the best Nick sitcom in my view.

I know I'm late to the party on this one, but I miss it. I was planning to write a longer review right now, but thadiusmain took the words right out of my mouth. I love this show for every reason that reviewer said. Back when this was on the air, I was in the worst spot of my life. I was a recent college grad with no job prospects and unemployed. This show was the only thing that could make me smile at that time. I'd watch it to ease my stress and just relax and disappear from the world. Of course, I do remember browsing online job sites while I watched it too, but this show kept me company when I thought the world was against me and I had virtually no self-esteem from being rejected by so many employers, so thank you for the quality entertainment throughout your 5 year run. This show will ALWAYS hold a special place in my heart!

Such a nostalgic & fun show! Provides you with so many laughing moments!

This is a terrific series. I truly believe that this series was what really began and lifted teenage series, and inspired other series like Victorious, Henry Danger, and others. I finally watched the whole series when I was in my late twenties, and a couple of episodes made me teary. This series revealed multiple themes and the nature of the life of a teenager. It focuses on reality in order for viewers to watch and learn. Viewers easily can gain a clear perspective of the challenges of the particular age group.

I enjoyed watching this series. I experienced multiple emotions throughout the series. I learned and understood more about the image that the series is sending to the viewers. The cast really connected to the storyline. It allows them to learn about themselves as well.
