No, because Nielsen changed the 25,000 people they determine ratings from sometime in the course of 2011. Most of these new 25,000 people probably don't watch iCarly. Each of the 25,000 people represent a certain number of people. If a small percent of those people watch iCarly the ratings will be low. This is why Nielsen needs to change their rating system, because no people are the same. There are over 300 million people in the US and they only relie on 25,000 people. So the numbers we see for broadcasts on any network aren't really true, they're just estimates based on those few number of people.
