I'll see if I can find some videos of Madisen to see if I can figure out what you mean. I have seen nothing of her except for her little Twitter stunt.

I always thought the change in Sam was the writers trying to calm her down and act more mature. But I guess Jennette could be part of the reason. As far as iSell Penny Tees goes, I thought that was so far out of whack that I don't even try to explain it. One person tried to explain this as Sam hitting rock bottom. While chronologically possible, the behavior of the other characters puts this explanation very much in doubt. Sam is impulsive and doesn't always make the smartest choices, but the whole child labor thing is just evil, and she's not evil. The killing thing with Freddie was also disturbing. Most of this can be attributed to the writing, which has gone downhil since Victorious started. But there is room for Jennette. The whole pie thing does seem to have some unnecesarry bitterness now that I look at it again. But what I don't get is why she wouold have kept signing up for new seasons if she was sick of it.

The thing that I liked least about the Seddie arc was in iDSaF. It's like one minute they're fighting and the next minute they're kissing. Done properly, that's a viable way to do a love-hate relationship. But they totally botched it. It was bipolar. I would have liked to see something similar to Bade myself. But the fighting was over such stupid things. I wish they could have at least fought about something worth fighting about. As for the kisses, iKiss certainly has the Jathan awkwardness. That probably added to the episode though. As for the others, part of the problem is Nick demanding that the kissing be "family friendly". As in not realistic. But there people out there who don't think they were done properly.

Whatever objections can be made about the way they made Seddie happen, it's worse now. At least before they weren't destroying the characters. iSPT is the exception here, but that was short lived. Now they're just making Freddie a total ass. And he's only like that to Sam. I just wish they would act like they actually loved each other at some point (mostly Freddie; we can see that Sam's feelings haven't changed). It's like all the progress we made is gone. I just hope they don't totally scrw up the ending.
