I agree with both of you. I do see the Creddie in ispeed date, for example, and I do note that she does tend to get jealous when it appears That she's not the first target of Freddie's interest. (I'm not sure she's jealous in ITTK so much as freaked out that her friends kissed, but she does sound jealous when they're tied up, so yeah). But here's the thing: in the Creddie episodes like isyl and especially ispeed date, we also got significant Seddie development. It can't ALL have been ONLY about the Creddie. Why show Sam's face there, and in IOAR, too? It's like Creddie was often used to further the Seddie, but not so much vice-versa. The arc had no Creddie in it, for example. Carly completely threw herself behind that relationship. It could be that Season 3 was all about Carly beginning to have feelings for Freddie when she finds out he and Sam kissed, and then realizing she doesn't really like him that way in isyl. But then, like Princess says the development of that storyline stalls and Season 4 is like a total re-boot. I agree that there were still feelings after the arc, though. It was NOT like isyl, where they never mentioned it again.

A lot of the writers left after Seqson 3, so it could be they were the ones taking it in a Seddie direction, and Dan didn't exactly agree or understand that, he was more into ratings and gimmicks. And so he intentionally played up the Creddie vs. Seddie drama. It's a win-win for him, because he gets BOTH groups to watch, but he also gets to keep the Seddiers, which are the larger group. If he went full on Creddie he would have lost them. And maybe the arc was fan service. But it's frustrating because it didn't NEED to be. There was enough there to support it.
