I doubt that Nick would just sit back and do nothing. A gay relationship on a show that most people outside of its fandom consider a kids' show would cause a lot of uproar and controversy, and I don't think that's going to change anytime soon.

However, I do kind of wish that they WOULD do something like that, and I wish that if they did, the parents wouldn't freak out. If more kids were exposed to same-gender relationships as something that was okay, there would probably end up being a lot less homophobia in the world.

Do I want Cam to happen? Eh, not really, but just for the simple reason that I prefer Seddie. Cam happening wouldn't BOTHER me though. I even kind of prefer it to Creddie (not trying to say Creddie is bad or anything, I just like Cam a little better, and Seddie a little better than that). Other same-gender couples? Hmm...there aren't really any on the show that I particularly want to happen, but if there were two guys or two girls on the show (main characters or otherwise) that I thought would be good together, then the fact that it would be a same-gender couple wouldn't bother me at all and I would want it to happen. Usually I favor the opposite-gender couples on shows, but I've been known to ship a same-gender couple every now and then.

Gosh, I'm rambling. Okay, main points: Should shows that kids watch start having gay couples? Yes. Does that necessarily mean I want iCarly to do that? No. Would I still watch iCarly and love the show if that did happen? Definitely. Would I be proud of Nick for having the guts to do something like that? VERY.
