Talk:Seddie/@comment-3180503-20121206154201

Hey, guys. Not to be a Debbie Downer, but this thought has been in my head for like a week now:

Dan created Creddie; the fans created Seddie.

The more I think about it, the truer it seems to me. All throughout the show, us Seddiers have gotten excited over little moments that Dan may or may not have put there to hint towards romance. On the other hand, Creddie was "canon" from the very beginning and Dan explicitly wrote Freddie's crush into the episodes. Again, not to be negative, but it seems to me that Dan planned to do Creddie all along but decided to give us the arc after he realized how crazy (in a good way ;D) and nitpicky we were about Seddie. Unfortunately, Dan didn't really know how to write for Seddie and he struggled with the arc because he didn't realize that what we really loved was the adorable bickering of two people who acted as if they hated each other but secretly loved each other. Not some awkward kissing and lovey-dovey talk. The only reason Dan would go such a route with Seddie is because it is the only thing he is familiar with. He did the lovey-dovey thing with Creddie, Josh/Mindy and even Quogan. Sadly, he decided to discontinue the Seddie "game" that we fell in love with 5 years ago.

When Dan wrote the pilot, he was most likely setting it up for Creddie and probably didn't anticipate that the major part of his future fanbase would ship Sam and Freddie. Understandably, with this in mind, that's why the ships and the show started to lose its way around the time of the arc. Dan was working in unfamiliar terrritory just to please the fans and to make things all the more awkward, he probably knew in his heart that he didn't want Seddie to end up together.

This is all just a huge theory I came up with. For the record, I DON'T WANT it to be true. However, judging by the way the show ended, it's a plausible explanation to why iCarly didn't end Seddie ._.
