You see the funny thing is... I didn't have high hopes for iCarly.

In fact, I "hated" iCarly from Season 1 to Season 3. I thought Carly was prissy, Freddie was a wimp, and Sam was just a jerk. But then I gradually started enjoying it more - iPsycho, iGo To Japan, iKiss, ietc. In the end, I really wish I had been more of a "Creddie/Seddie"er when I was younger and maybe taken part in the Miranda/Jeannette uStreams, and I DEFINITELY would have gone to iCarly dot come more. Really, it was a lucrative idea.

When Victorious first came on, I was like "Oh great, rip-off of iCarly". I still disliked iCarly around this time, so when I saw Victorious had hotter actresses and episodes like the Improv at Sikowitz's house, I started to like Victorious more. Victorious was getting WAY better than iCarly; iCarly was just getting lame and dull (the actors growing up, etc).

Now that iCarly's ending, I'm getting all nostalgic and looking back on all the episodes I went through my last year of middle school watching and most of high school tuning into. I looked up a lot about the stars and Dan Schneider... and I found out that practically every show live-action show on Nick I liked was made by Schnieder, or had his invovlement. Drake and Josh, IcARLY, Victorious, Amanda Show, All That, Ned's Declassified (IIRC), and Zoey 101 (I was in LOVE with that show back in the day, and I was so embarassed to let my friends know I watched a show with a female lead, but I later found out a couple of friends watched it as well).

I was young enough to take Zoey 101 for what it was. I loved Drake and Josh in the first two seasons, I didn't think iCarly would be that great and ended up loving it, etc etc.

So, since Miranda's going to college and Victorious is canceled, I've got no choice but to trust the guy who made a 1/3 of my favorite childhood shows. Seriously, half of my childhood was DBZ, the other half was mixed between The Amanda Show, Zoey 101, Eand Ed, Edd, n Eddy.

So, as a much older fan, taking the two hottest actresses from iCarly and Victorious and putting them on the same show... is just swell.
