User blog comment:WildJackal/Sam beating Freddie a sign that she loves him?/@comment-3092491-20110717231929/@comment-2032682-20110718054718

It's a common trope. I've shipped similar couples in the past. The last 'major' couple I shipped after iCarly started was Sonny/Chad on SWAC.

It's just done badly on iCarly. It was done far far better with Sonny/Chad.

I dislike just how extreme the levels of violence and disrespect Freddie suffers. I still haven't seen one reason as to why Freddie would go out with Sam or want to enter a relationship with a girl who continually insults, abuses and bullies him. Even if he thinks it's "normal" as a friendship, entering a relationship with someone like that is insane.

The fact Dan is forcing a 4 part arc which seems to have Freddie return her feelings is bad writing already in my view. He should laugh at her just like she laughed at his feelings for Carly, and tell her that threatening him with violence 10 seconds before kissing him isn't the way to go about revealing you like him.

It also comes up against Creddie. Which has more minor issues and is on the whole, a stable, healthy best friendship which has the potential to become a great relationship with some minor character development from both sides. That's also a common trope. So right there you've got two 'common' tropes and that simply having the basis for those tropes isn't enough to make it 'obvious' that one will happen.

I don't know what you are trying to prove to me.

Are you trying to get me to acknowledge Seddie is a common trope? Of course it is.

Are you trying to get me to acknowledge iCarly is a comedy? Of course it is.

Are you trying to get me to admit that since it's a comedy I shouldn't care about Sam's behaviour?

Do you want me to ignore everything that makes Seddie look bad just because it's "a comedy?.
