iCarly Awards is the 4th episode of the third season of iCarly and the 54th episode overall.

Plot

Carly and Sam are hosting an awards show for some of the best fan-based home videos submitted to the show. Spencer builds one 10-foot iCarly Award, instead of ten one-foot iCarly Awards, and now quickly has to build the ten little ones. His only assistance comes from six male European Swimsuit models. When Marlin, the male swimsuit model photographer comes in and asks Spencer for his models, he refuses to let them go because he needs their help to build the awards while the show is going on. To avoid getting into trouble, Spencer ties the photographer up in duct tape and leaves him outside the door.

After all the award winners get their trophies and don't get to make a speech because Carly and Sam keep shooing them away, Spencer gets the 10-foot iCarly Award for "Best Brother and Best Trophy Builder" with the swimsuit models carrying the giant trophy. Then, the show ends with Random Dancing. The photographer breaks free from the tape and chases Spencer while he runs away.

Trivia

• The award winners don't get to make a speech because Carly and Sam immediately shoo them away while music plays. In the fun facts for this episode, Dan says this is a parody of how real award shows limit the speaking time of their winners with music.
• This is the third time that toilet humor is used in this episode of iCarly. Sam announces to Carly and Freddie by saying, "I have to pee."
• This was the first episode to premiere after Nickelodeon's major rebrand in the USA, however, the new logo was already in use by the time Season 3 premiered internationally.
• The video with the turtle trying to eat a small tomato can easily be found on YouTube. The voices done by the turtle and the tomato were done by Dan Schneider and Jerry Trainor respectively.
• A slight modification was made to the season 3 opening credits sequence from this episode forwards, where the shot of Sam eating an orange from iGo Nuclear is replaced with the shot of Carly getting hit by a pillow from iCook.
• This is the last episode that has the Nickelodeon logo which turns from a bubble into a splat at the end.
• In the UK, Hunter's scenes were cut out because recreating it could be dangerous.
• On January 31, 2022, when TeenNick's NickRewind lineup was discontinued, this was the last episode to be broadcast.
• When Hunter receives his iCarly award, he is wearing the same shirt Drake wore in the Drake & Josh episode "The Drake & Josh Inn".

Allusions

• The end dance between Carly, Sam, and Gibby pays homage to Beyonce's "Single Ladies" dance.

Character Revelations

• Sam thinks wearing a shirt while eating ribs kills the fun of it. Carly scolds her for it because she spilled barbecue sauce on her fancy new bra.

Goofs

• At the beginning, Carly declared that instead of one 10-foot tall award, she needed 10 one-foot tall awards. However, there are only nine videos featured during the show. Then Spencer appears on screen after the last one is given out, and as Carly is preparing to surprise him with the 10th award (the large one), he reiterates that he only prepared 10 small ones. If this were the case, he'd have one leftover.
• Captions misspell Vooshnod's name as "Fooshnog".

Spencer with the European Swimsuit Models.

Running Gags

• The swimsuit models dancing to rave music.
• The awards getting messed up.

Series Continuity

• Simon, the guy who can squirt milk from his eye from the first episode of iCarly, iPilot, returned to receive an award.
• The pink bathrobe Carly is wearing at the beginning of the episode is the same robe she wears in iMight Switch Schools.
