One point, just for the record :

"If Dan wanted carly and freddie to stay together he should of left it as it was from i saved ur life."

That was different.

Up until now, on iCarly, Dan Schneider has avoided creating a relationship lasting more than one episode, because of Nickelodeon's habit of airing episodes out of order. With Drake & Josh, the network would sometimes promote one episode, and then air a different episode by mistake.

Nickelodeon has done this with iCarly as well, airing episodes out of the intended order, especially in reruns. For this reason, Dan Schneider has always tried to make each episode its own separate story. Episodes with continuing storylines (including ongoing relationships) can get very messy when they're not aired in the proper order.

Something has changed now. Maybe Dan Schneider was able to impress the network with how big a production this is and how important it is to air these episodes in the proper order, maybe iCarly and Dan Schneider has become more important to Nickelodeon, or maybe Dan just finally put his foot down with the network.

But, for whatever reason, Dan is finally able to do a multiple-episode story arc, which he wasn't able to do during Season 3, when iSaved Your Life aired.

Now, I'm not going to either agree or disagree with the rest of your post. I still think there's a chance for Carly and Freddie's relationship, although, admittedly, it is now becoming an increasingly faint hope for the Creddie shippers. Well, let's just leave it to Dan Schneider to decide, then.
