The show is definitely an ensemble. If it were on another network it would be like Friends, with no clear "star". But Nick and Disney both usually want a main break out character that they can market and put out there. So, even though iCarly isn't really written like a star vehicle people act like it is Miranda's show. I think the biggest clue to this is that no one in show thinks Sam is anything but equal on iCarly the webcast. It has been a plot point a few times! Other shows like Victorious or Hannah Montana or Wizards you could probably get away with having a "sidekick" be absent without much trouble. iCarly had to do a whole episode just freaking out about what to do with out Sam.

BUT none of this is Miranda's fault! She is as good as the others (just not better). And I think she is very generous in making sure other people get credit or promoting Seddie and other things. She doesn't demand that everyone act as though it is her show. This is how Nick wanted it to be done. I think at this point even Dan feels uncomfortable with it.
