@Cooldog If anything, he lost a lot of Creddie fans when the arc was airing--a lot of them had given up watching at that point, too. xP

@Starshine I definitely agree that Creddie was still a plausible option up until I'd say as late as early Season 4 and then reawakened randomly in late Season 5. I remember thinking Carly looked a little jealous when she was informed that Freddie took Melanie out on a date. They showed her feelings in a super-subtle way (other than in iTTK) similarly to how they subtly hinted at Seddie. The problem is, they never fully followed up on Carly's feelings. Much like how Freddie overcoming his Carly crush is important to the Seddie storyline, Carly overcoming her creeped out disposition of Freddie and opening herself up to a relationship with him was something that was important to the Creddie storyline and her development as a character. I actually would've liked to see Carly have real feelings for Freddie because I believe that he deserved that (at least before the writers completely screwed his character up). But then, after the arc (where they both said I LOVE YOU), I didn't think Creddie was a plausible option anymore. By that point, it was clear that Freddie was over Carly and he had made his choice. HOWEVER, the writers decided to throw all of that out the window and, again, go back to square 1 in terms of development. It made absolutely no sense to bring Freddie's crush back at that point. It was no longer cute, he just looked like a huge douche who couldn't make up his mind. So, yeah, I would have been okay (not very happy, but still accepting) of Creddie happening if it had happened in the first three seasons pre-reboot. The way it actually did happen was just a huge FU to the fans and to all the Seddie development that had been piling on since day one. :P
