@GiantKid I think it was rude of what Sam did to Freddie at first, but honestly, in the past, she wouldn't have even agreed to let Freddie be in the webcast.

Also, I don't think Sam has a lack of overall growth as a character. I mean, I think it was a lot of character development for her to console Freddie, to comfort him. I honestly feel that she felt bad for him, trying to tell him that some of the 'techy' stuff he does on iCarly could be creative, and even let him have an iCarly webcast in 3D, which was his idea, in order for him to feel better and more creative.

She could've regretted what she said when she told him to "stop" and when she was being rude. She felt sorry enough to talk about it to him. In the past, do you think Sam would've felt even a LITTLE bad? Coming from a hard shell like Sam, I think it was really nice and sincere, the way she comforted Freddie after, and felt bad for him, whether it counted as friendship or not. (or maybe even both.) :)
