User blog comment:Mak23686/My problem with the iCarly ships/@comment-3225961-20110717190417

For the first half or so of the blog, my mind was screaming, Gibby, Gibby! Since that's what a lot of people ship the third wheel with, especially in Carly's place. I'm with you though... I don't see it, no matter how many ways I twist and warp it. Cam/Felanie(Meddie) route would have been cool, but that's not likely, for two major reasons, so my next favorite option is open ended. Of course, I also like Fencer, but all those characters suddenly coming out...in one place? Even I can realize the problem with that point.

Since it looks like Seddie might prevail: Spencer- I agree with you on this one, and I don't think it needs to be discussed any further.

Gibby- Carly's sympathetic towards Gibby, more out of pity, imo, than possible romantic feelings, so I also don't see this one. It never occurred to me that Gibby's relationship "habits", if you will, would conflict with Carly's, so kudos to that.

Melanie- Maybe, but it's nothing like what with see with Cam. I think it would be ess likely to happen than Cam, but of course, I could be wrong, and I certainly wouldn't mind it.

Personally, what I imagine to happen is that Carly might continue looking for a new guy every couple episodes or so, especially if seddie stays. Not my favorite choice, but as some people already mentioned, Carly probably doesn't need (maybe she really wants) a solid love interest. Romance was supposed to second, so that may not be a concern. Introducing another character may also be plausible, but then i have a feeling the main cast will get too big, and it will seem almost, ungracefully forced. I'm open to most ideas though, since, at least in my opinion, character relationships have never been this debated and important to the fandom, so the creative team has a lot to work with.

But yeah, I'd like them to all be in platonic relationships at the end of the series too, for the reasons listed, as well as general appeal.
