I think the KCA's are rigged to a certain extent, just like the TCA's and other similar award shows. Like for the TCA's, they take the votes into account, but the ultimate winner is up to the shows producers.

Let's be real here, Harry Potter is one of the largest franchises in movie history. There's no way Alvin & the Chipmunks could, with any reality, beat out Harry Potter.

From a commercial aspect, there's logic behind every winner. That's not to say that none of them rightfully won, but I can see why some might have been "chosen" to win over others that had maybe a few more votes.

iCarly is likely on it's way out. Victorious is going to be the networks new staple I'd imagine. They're pushing that show to the forefront. Having it win helps in doing that. Not to mention, Victorious fans really were voting like crazy this year. I think Victorious' popularity is growing while iCarly's is shrinking. I think it's still smaller than iCarly, but it's on an upward trend.

I see award shows like the KCAs as, not only a reflection of what kids think is popular, but also what those "higher ups" believe should be popular with that demographic.
