The profundity in the Seddie/Creddie rivalry or the Seddie/Creddie triangle--whatever label you decide--lied in the ultimate decision rendered by our own Freddie. Would he go with the girl next door for whom he has always beared a crush and idealized? Or would he go with the girl right under his nose--her best friend--with whom he had developed a connection over time, despite their contentious beginnings? The girl he has "always" loved? Or the girl he didn't expect to love? I thought that Dan would answer the essential question (of the ships) by iCarly's end. I would've gone as far as to presume that Dan purposely set up the ships the way he did in order to answer that question.

This rivalry/triangle informs the substance of Seddie. Basically, what does Freddie ultimately want? And iGoodbye is an obvious cop-out to that question. This makes me far less excited for Seddie moving forward. Seddie, for me, has always been more about the substance than surface. I feel though as now Dan will only thrown in Seddie, just to throw it in, and gloss over the fact that he hasn't vowed himself to anything substantial. At the least, if he decides to put Seddie in Sam & Cat, he's going to revamp it, losing the element that gained from iCarly. And, Seddie without the substance is meaningless to me.

It sort of makes you wonder: do you want iCarly's Seddie or Sam & Cat's Seddie? Given the way that Dan handled Seddie and Creddie in iGoodbye, I'm far from anxious as to what will come next.
