I like what you said, too about Sam's character and the total mishandling of S&C. I also agree that Creddie was never the original intent, for the reasons you suggest. It's nice to hear someone say this! I do disagree with one point, or perhaps I have misunderstood, and that is I don't think it was Dan's intent, with igoodbye, to actually make Freddie into a mercurial vertex character. I think that's how it looked, because of the bad writing and the random late-added fist pump. But I don't think that was the intent, and so I think that's why Freddie does not appear conflicted now. You don't write a poly amorous relationship with two characters who are best friends, one of which is not interested in the guy and is happy for her other friend. This is light comedy, not a nighttime soap. A serious love triangle wouldn't have worked. The whole Creddie v. Seddie thing was just pandering to the fans. I think Dan's statement about possibly addressing Carly's feelings later was to placate the Creddiers, because in the same breath he said the kiss had no relationship significance whatsoever. I think Dan is getting lazy and inconsistent and it's making everyone look bad.
