Talk:IOpen a Restaurant/@comment-3104644-20120422023555


 * sigh* I'm gonna come out and say it. I didn't enjoy this episode much. I knew from watching the sneak peek that I wasn't going to love it.

The main plot was a little enjoyable, but I hated the part shown in the sneak peek (when Gibby was pouring red peppers on Carly's food even when she said not to). It was also a little weird about how he outbursted at the dude who told him to take his shirt off, but Sam did show a small sign of caring, which I will give her credit for. I'll admit, I liked it a little, because Sam showed off some chops to the dude later in. It was also funny how Mr. Franklin encouraged them to keep the restaurant at the end.

But what Ailoderap said on the iGOD page about how Spencer "always has an annoying subplot that seems to have no purpose other than giving him something to do" couldn't ring truer than in this case. That one was even worse. I didn't find it funny to have the burglar alarm leaving Carly suffering blindage. And how he pulls Carly and Freddie out of school to show them his burglar alarm, which malfunctions, and they expect us to laugh as damage is caused, and Mrs. Benson is hit from the kernels. And that's how it ends? With damage, injury and so abruptly? I'll pass.

Ever since Dan started taking part in writing every episode, reactions to the show have been incredibly divisive lately. Same with Victorious, too-around the time The Worst Couple aired, I saw some of the people I talk to on Twitter (mostly die-hard fans of Victoria Justice and Victorious, like me) saying "this season hasn't been as good as 1 and 2 so far", but recently i've been hearing people take that back and are finding 2 the worst (though still enjoyable). In short, since both Season 5 of iCarly and Season 3 of Victorious have started, the general conseus has been you either love the episodes or you don't. But that's just what i'm feeling, of course. Who else thinks they should go back to doing one writer an episode?

Well, we should see ratings on Tuesday. Hopefully they'll be better than iGOD was. And i'm still probably gonna watch iHalfoween, let's see how good that ends up.
