User blog comment:Chaos Red/I Don't Hate Carly But I Don't Love Her Either/@comment-1976613-20110523215224/@comment-3553219-20110524033858

iOMG was the first episode that I ever thought Carly was the funniest person in it. I guess that is partially because they had Sam be really subdued and they wanted her to be in the background a bit to the end. So, Sam couldn't be the usual comic relief. But it wasn't just that. Her "hey what happened" to Spencer after the electrocution was gold. And I loved when she first questioned Sam about Brad.

I would say that in the first season or so Miranda Cosgrove wasn't even close to being as comedicaly gifted as Jennette McCurdy. Sam stole every scene in the first season. But MC has really grown as an actor since then. And they are finally letting Carly be funny and she has been great at it.
