Well, if somebody actually does commit suicide over this, then they obviously had much, much deeper issues than can be attributed to a television show.

iCarly wouldn't be to blame for that, I think.

As I mentioned earlier, I don't believe anybody is really crying themselves to sleep, missing school, or going to kill themselves over this. It's just hyperbole, all kinds of exaggerations to vent how upset they're feeling, that's all.

I don't think that they really hate Sam, either. Again, they're just venting, albeit in a rather tasteless way.

I do agree it's a very bad idea to be threatening to kill yourself so flippantly. Suicide is not a subject to be joking around about.
