@WeevilWobble is right. Nick has making stupid business decisions for years. Now it's finally catching up with them. The real problem with ratings is that the people in charge of Nick are living in the past. Back in the 1990s and the first half of the 2000s Nick made some good business decisions that got them to be the #1 kids network. Since 2004 they've been doing stupid things like erratic scheduling and getting rid of good writers. Long after Dan wrote the arc, Disney surpassed Nick in ratings. The fact is Disney adapted and Nick still thinks it can make any mistake and stay on top. Nick proved that when they got the data. Instead of taking the data as a wake up call, they questioned the validity of the data. This is Nick's fault. The ratings would have been similar had the episodes been Seddie, Creddie, or neither. The fact that the Seddie arc coincided with the drop in ratings means the Creddie shippers will use that as one more way to attack Seddie, but it doesn't mean the arc caused the ratings to drop. Since there's no more meaningful arguments for why Creddie will happen, they're just using anti Seddie arguments. Pretty much all are unfounded, this one is especially so.
