iCarly

I was a fan of the original iCarly when I was a kid and have good memories of watching it back then. I watched the first 3 episodes of this season and I must say it's good but could be a lot better. Jerry Trainor is great and he really does carry the comedy on the show so far. Miranda Cosgrove and Nathan Kress both naturally fit into their roles pretty well. I'm indifferent towards the other two characters. Harper is funny but she is going to have to settle into her role more. At first I didn't like Milicent at all but she grew on me over time. My main problem with the show so far is some of the dialogue and internet references try too hard sometimes. Also, I don't like that Freddie is still living with his mother. And shouldn't he have a better camera? I know phones have taken over the world but knowing Freddie he should have the most hi-def amazing camera since he's a huge nerd. Also I would think they would be live-streaming on a platform like YouTube or Twitch instead of Instagram since it's a lot better for that sort of thing and much easier to make money. I liked their decision with Sam and having her join a biker gang it makes sense for her character. I'm excited to see more of the show but I really hope there's more to the show then just internet/social media references.

So far the show has the same feel of the original but more mature and more open with its dialogue, characters, & storylines! Pretty funny so far as well! I really love the new character Harper! Will always miss and prefer Sam but Harper is definitely an awesome addition/replacement! The show overall is pretty good, of course has room for improvement, but if the given the chance and effort this show could be amazing!

Carly, Freddy, and Spencer return to the small screen bringing with them laughs, gags, and nostalgia.

Let me start by saying I grew up watching the original series and was excited for the reboot. But mere minutes into the new pilot, I experienced cringe worthy dialogue and even acting that felt off and forced. I waited it out though, hoping things would change.

They did.

ICarly is still a corny, goofball of a show that exists to entertain but comes along with a dose of nostalgia as well. It's fun and idiotic, the characters melt back into their caricatures quite well after some time. New additions Harper and Millicent also mix in well, though personally I feel Harper does as Carly's BFF more so than Millicent does as Freddy's stepdaughter. I have no doubt though that things will develop and smooth out more with time.

It's enjoyable, and I hope it is given time to grow!

I like the chemistry between the characters, but plot often seem inconsequential. Jokes are hit or miss. I like the addition of the adult humor.

Jerry trainor is as funny as before, Miranda cosgrove and Nathan kress return to their roles with ease. The new additions to the cast will take some time to resonate but so far they seem to fit right in with the rest of the cast. Some jokes land, but some don't, the laugh track is definetely more annoying than the previous iteration.
