The original concept for iCarly was that Carly would suddenly be cast in her favorite show. They obviously changed it so that she and her friends control the show. Disney (and Brian Robbins) were allegedly aware of early versions of the show. And then suddenly they created Sonny with a Chance. This is what Dan is referencing in the iTake on Dingo episode. Where Dingo (Disney) is stealing ideas from iCarly (Dan Schneider).
