@Drebched I completely agree about the arc except I had those sentiments even before I watched it. I always thought that reducing a complicated relationship like Seddie to 5 episodes would be a bad idea and I was skeptical about it from the beginning. After watching it, I was effectively turned off to Seddie because they executed it so poorly that it couldn't possibly be seen as the same Seddie from Seasons 1-3. It was clear that the magic spark between Jathan was long gone and that what was left of the writers weren't putting in the devoted effort we saw in older Seddie eps like iReunite With Missy and iMust Have Locker 239. It's like they completely forgot how to capture the essence of Seddie--it was never angsty! It was just fun and light-hearted bickering with an underlying sense that they cared for one another. Would that have been too hard channel in the eps DEDICATED TO THEIR RELATIONSHIP!?! Ugh, it just makes me so mad. xP

I know I sound like a broken record at this point, but I'm sure if Jathan had been in a better place at the time of the arc-filiming, they would have been able to make the script work better. TKTJ worked because, despite what was admittedly a mediocre script with a half-assed plotline, you could tell that the castmates were genuinely having fun and enjoying the company of one another. Even Jennette and Ariana were able to put aside their differences and put forth the effort. It's this kind of spirit that I wish they had captured in the final season of iCarly and perhaps the whole of S&C. xP
