@ Lady Magique :

 Well, Sis, we tried. I wasn't really expecting to change anybody's mind, but nobody can say we didn't try.

@ Everybody :

This has been very interesting, and very useful, I think. A good exchange of ideas here, and hopefully everybody will at least consider what their opponents have said. I know I will.

As for right now ... You know, I keep hearing people say things like, "This isn't Degrassi." Well, with all due respect, it's not Sesame Street, either.

As I mentioned earlier, I think that we all agree that we don't want drama to ruin the show. But we'll have to agree to disagree about how much drama Dan Schneider can introduce without it ruining the show.

I still believe, as I stated at the beginning, that Dan Schneider can create a love triangle and still keep it light-hearted and comedic. A lot has been said about how unrealistic that would be, but in my view, iCarly is basically a cartoon anyway, and they're not known for being realistic.

But I have already stated my views on that, and there's no point (that I can see) in going over it again. I will simply leave it out there for everybody to judge for themselves.

Reading through some of Slicknickshady's posts, I would note that, ironically, I am probably more confident that Sam and Freddie will wind up together in the end than he is. It's what's going to happen between now and then that I have to disagree with him about.

I still believe it is possible for Carly to reveal that she still has feelings for Freddie, and even for Carly and Freddie to get back together for a short time, without it ruining either the show, or their friendships with each other and Sam.

I still think that what I said earlier about Carly and Sam having a moment in which they promise each other that they will remain friends, no matter what happens with Freddie, is a viable scenario. You are all, of course, free to disagree.

Finally, my brother (Phenglei Kai) made the point, earlier today on the iOMG Part II page, that no matter what happens, none of the characters are going to end the show heartbroken or unhappy. Even if I granted that it would probably end that way in real life, that doesn't mean it has to end that way on this television show.

No matter which two of the three main characters wind up together, Dan Schneider isn't going to leave the third one out in the cold. The remaining 26 episodes is still time enough for him to re-introduce a character's previous love interest (Pete, Shane, Adam) or create an entirely new one.

Point is, whoever doesn't get paired up with another main character will surely still wind up with somebody, and have something to be happy about, too. I think we can trust Dan Schneider to make it work out in the end.

As I keep saying, though, I could be wrong, about anything or everything I've said. I've stated my views, and you can judge for yourself.

As my brother said earlier ... Well, let's just let Dan Schneider decide, then, okay?
