I pretty strongly disagree that Carly was being used as a plot device to get them together. It was about Carly dealing with her two friends dating and how that would affect their dynamic. Carly was in almost every scene and Sam and Freddie had only three scenes alone together through out the whole arc until iLove You (including iOMG). It was about how Carly, as the person who is usually the center of the trio now has to deal with this division in the ranks. How she hates being brought into their fights (which she mostly ignored in the past) or how she hates being left out and excluded.

Not only was it all about Carly, except iLove You, but they were the first sets of episodes in awhile that showed how funny Miranda Cosgrove is as an actor. She had so many great episodes in Season 3 and then for a lot of Season 4 Carly was kind of bland and not used particularly well. Then starting with iOMG Miranda started to get a lot more of the comedy bits. The whole arc was the first time in a long time that Carly was allowed to be the funny one.

I don't see how the arc was anything but a help to Carly's character and mostly about her reactions to Seddie.
