First, thank you so much for your input! It really means a lot! ^.^

That said, I pretty much agree on your Jennette and Madisen opinions. And I definitely think Madisen brought out the very worst in Nathan. I believe a lot of the douchey persona he has exhibited in the past (especially the gym abuse) has been completely brought on by Madisen as there were no signs of him being that way prior to meeting her. I don't think the fact that Nathan is slowly starting to go back to his old self (any Nick pimping notwithstanding) is any coincidence. There is more to say on the matter but I shall withhold it for a later time. xP

As for Dan/Nick/Cyma, it's pretty obvious that Dan was keeping the network afloat (especially with iCarly) when the rest of the network was sinking fast. Unfortunately, as soon as Dan started to slack off, we couldn't even expect quality from his part anymore. When you combine Nick's carelessness with its shows and promotion with Dan's steadily declining career and ever-growing ego, you're going to get utter catastrophes like the S&C drama under your belt. That entire incident DID NOT look good on either Nick or Dan's part and I pray to God they both learn from all the fatal mistakes that were made. -_-
