@LeahSedandHP - you represent my position very well. I did revise it a bit in light of some research spurred by people on this board.

I agree that there is clearly some Seddie early on - my comment on iHeart Art below, for one - and that persists through iBeat the Heat. For some reason - probably the loss of many of the writers - the little Seddie moments that you all like just vanish. It looks like when DS has total control of the series, he has no clue how to handle Seddie to make it plausible, so he made it a sounding board for the flaws in teen romances that are not "meant to be." He only seems capable of developing Creddie over the long term and only handle Seddie from Sam only and only as isolated moments.

My personal belief is that DS set-up Creddie as an idealisation of his first crush that he lived out vicariously. There are some creepy implications of this that we discussed last week.
