User blog comment:Lotstar/Is iCarly Being Dragged On For Too Long?/@comment-3250643-20120515031444

I'm just going to post my answer for this from another blog b/c I'm right now xD. So I'm going to warn you that some of it isn't related to this blog.

There's some things that I agree with but there's also some things I don't agree with.

Honestly, iCarly is just not that funny to me anymore. When I compare the newer episodes with the older ones, there's something different and it's just not the same anymore. And all the characters have changed. Freddie is a jerk now. Sam is just way too damn confusing all the time. Carly is funnier but she seems a bit more pathetic. The only character that hasn't changed is Spencer and I applause that. All that character development for years on the show and Dan just burned it into ashes. It's like Dan doesn't know what he wants anymore. All he wants is people to keep watching so he can make money. The point I'm trying to make is I think the reason why iCarly popularity has decreased so much is because Dan basically ruined the show. The dynamic....the character development...almost everything. And I kept wondering if one day Dan could fix all this shipping mess and the show itself but it still hasn't happened. I've just lost faith in him.

I do agree that Nick is also a part of this. iCarly barely gets any recognition anymore. It's all about Victorious now. And I'm sick of Dan using iCarly to promote Victorious. I seems like Nick and Dan have forgotten about iCarly and are just using it as a backup show to get more cash. We barely get any promos anymore that people don't even know when the next iCarly episode is. It's pretty sad. And also Nick keeps airing the eps so far away from each other that people just get sick of waiting and give up.

I just really think the show should end neutral. Dan keeps digging a bigger hole and I'd like it to stop. All this shipping mess is messing up the show. In fact, I wish the show would've ended earlier so none of this mess would've never happened. Everybody leaves the studio, Carly looks at the iCarly studio one last time, smiles, and cuts the light off or somethig. It would've been much better IMO.

I just wanted to say this is all MY opinion btw.
