- Just in time for the iCarly revival he didn't ask for, Quinton Reviews takes a look back at iCarly, one of the most popular Nickelodeon shows ever, and also one of the... strangest. And so join me, in this iCarly retrospective, as we look back at the adventures of Freddie, Sam, and Carly as they transcend to web celebrities! They're joined by Spencer, Gibby, T-Bo, Rip-Off Rodney, Guppy, Lewbert, Benji, and 700 others. It'll be a wild ride, but certainly a strange one...

This is going to be really weird, I had friends who were into iCarly but while 2007 was when I started watching channels that had Nickelodeon shows(YTV) I really heavily bounced off live action shows that weren't just competition shows until 2010 and Pair of Kings came out on Disney Family
I feel like we just entered a golden age of Quinton Reviews with this output rate.
Hol'up this is nearly 5 hours and you are going to make more episodes? I am convinced Quinton has been replaced by a machine. An awesome machine. Keep being you!
LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
That sucks that you were so depressed in 2019, I definitely didn’t notice in your content.
Also I laughed at the RAID jokes.
My headcanon is that assault IS illegal in the iCarly universe, but everyone's so scared shitless of Sam that the police doesn't want to arrest her.
I buy that
That’s how it always felt watching the show growing up.
That's definitely what I took away from it when I was a kid
Yeah but in Sam and cat they bring up Sam has a parole officer, um, don't ask why I know that
they finally got her and that’s why she’s not in the reboot
y'all know that tumblr post thats like " lets be real, if icarly was a real show on the internet they'd get cyberbullied off in a week "
@Midnight Raven Queen no i absolutely agree and im not an icarly an so that would make me sound kinda biased but yes 100 percent
like we did to Ray William Johnson?
I don't really think they would. There are plenty of content creators who I don't understand their popularity, but they are still well known. Plus this was the early days of the internet and standards were different back then which can account for it.
Those girls would be traumatized in record time. I'm partially amused by the image but also incredibly saddened by how terrible internet culture can be.
@@hope-cat4894 as someone who was around for what even technically wasn’t the "early days of the internet" (which the late 00’s/early 10’s absolutely _were not_ the early days wtf), we had cookies on the dark side and rawr means I love you’s on pre-teen ‘05-07 MySpace, but we were not exactly "running around in circles while making merp noises" random. That genuinely was not ever the "internet humor". Hell, most of my time was spent on forums. Remember, we’ve had the internet commercially available since the late 80’s/early 90’s. I started getting online as a kid in the late 90s. There were even video platforms other than UA-cam, UA-cam just ended up being the one that blew up because it didn’t make you use your own bandwidth to host a video on your own site and some other techy stuff.
The way Spencer says “She’s a little teenager, you gotta let them express themselves.” Makes me want to cry, I can’t explain it but it just makes me want to cry.
Personally, there's something about the line that is very healing to my inner child. If I was told this when I was a kid, it would've meant the world to me T^T
@@HanariKamite same!
hh
Spencer being Banksy is incredibly plausible. If you put a laugh track over that vid of Banksy’s artwork shredding itself, it would pass as an iCarly bit 100%.
Tru +2 😭😭
I like the idea that Spencer is Banksy, but entirely by accident and he has no idea. Like an episode plot where he's hearing all about this famous indie street artist, and all their art is just stuff he's thrown out because he didn't like it. And when he tries to capitalize on it nobody believes him
lmao
except Spencer's artwork would have shredded itself, without Spencer's input lol
Within the show's canon, it's entirely plausible. The real Banksy is not and never has been just one person.
The fact that they literally fucking swatted Neville is wild
Not to mention that they used the military which i thought was illegal for the US to arrest American civilians through the military.
@@AiTanaka two crimes for the price of one then!
But they didn't swat him. He DID commit a crime. He just got caught.
@@AiTanaka I don't think that was the military, as I don't think he did anything that would be in the scope of the military. It looks a lot more like they had a lot easier access to cheap camo clothing (this is the US) vs actually getting real SWAT uniforms with the tactical equipment with it.
@@AiTanaka Technically, hacking is a crime, and honestly I thought she just got her dad's friends to scare Neville into leaving them alone than actually arresting him.
"Spencer is secretly banksy" is a lot more tame than my theory, "Spencer has an onlyfans"
Please explain
Wut? 😃
Why not both?
I theorize his OF is him in his variety of cool socks. And nothing else.

I hate that "pee on Carl" is the one joke that made me genuinely laugh out loud.
Don't hate that. It was hilarious 😂
It had 9 yro me literally rolling on the floor. It’s still one of my favorite jokes
Even after all these years, that joke still gets me 😂
he must really hate carl
Pee on Carl is already funny, but the way Jerry Trainer delivers “thank you officer *squints and reads name tag* … Carl” kills me everytime.
something I found shockingly stressful rewatching is just how bad carly & sam's sense of internet safety is. they use their real names they use a lot of information about themselves they show the outside of carly and freddy's building. sam just shouts out the address of their school
and how many times it feels like the script really wanted to call freddy the f slur but they can't do that on nick
they even said carlys apartment complex AND NUMBER live on their show
@@imabouttokermit711 GOD I forgot this show is like a horror

Gibby was cut from the reboot because the producers were afraid of his sheer power. They tried to contain him, but he escaped. What’s Gibby thinking about? Mass destruction.
@@lixxist15 no, he just didn’t want to be back. He didn’t like how the character was sort of a punching bag for the show.

I remember that the episode where Sam is put under anesthesia and tells Carly about the kiss gave me massive paranoia of undergoing anesthesia as a kid. I was so terrified of accidentally telling something embarassing to my parents
You know,,, I have been wondering were this fear of mine came from originally, because i definitely have that. Maybe I just found my answer.
SAME
I can’t believe we all thought being anesthetized was terrifying because of that one ep… I’m STILL scared I’d say some wacky stuff after going under
Luckily for me while the ep made me scared, in real life I have never had that kind of anesthesia, I have only had local anesthesia that just makes a part of my body numb, or the kind that just makes you unconscious, no weird drunk secret spilling anesthesia.
There was legit a post on Reddit where a man under anesthesia slapped a nurse’s or doctor’s ass and said something weird to her and when it was over he vaguely remembered. And he asked her if he did it and apologized, but she said it didn’t happen cuz she knew he didn’t mean it.
He was just freaking out cus he felt horrible but she wasn’t taking it to heart. Gotta feel bad for both of them.
"Freddie's poor security leaves his data and technology at risk, something that could have been avoided if he had just had some way of cloaking his location and IP address.
...
God, I wish this video was sponsored."
This is perhaps the funniest meta-joke any UA-camr has ever made.
"She's a little teenager, you have to let kids express themselves!" Spencer was always so great.
This line was SO cute and wholesome
i love your pfp
He was always such a pal :D
tbh he was not that great of a caretaker looking back. but a nice person.
@@lucasouza889 yeah Carly definitely has to be more adult than she should be, I'd say that's probably why she relates to two friends with heavy trauma
As much as I love Jeanette’s performance as Sam, I wish we lived in the alternate universe where she never got into acting at all after having read her book. She didn’t deserve any of that.
or at least was able to do it of her own free will and without the abuse
I want to watch two sweaty, hairy, big, buff macho men kiss passionately and grab eachother
I wish we lived in an alternate universe where she just didn't have a terrible time with it. She's a good actress, and she deserved to be treated better.
@@aspiringjoker2883 she got into acting in the first place because of parental abuse. Nobody deserves that.
@Jennifer Griel I'm aware. I wish she hadn't been abused is all I'm saying.
34:36 I think part of Freddie's obsession with Carly in the early days was that she was probably the first person to show him affection that wasn't toxic or abusive. He loves his mother but can't trust her but if Carly doesn't think it's a good idea he can trust that she is probably right. In the later seasons Freddie was more independent from his mother bc the show helped give him financial independence. He also was older and instead of viewing his situation as never ending, he could view it as a countdown towards moving away for college.
I felt so bad for Freddie as a kid and thats exactly why i actually was one of the few Creddie shippers.
That’s a good analysis
man Jeanette McCurdy is such a gifted actress...but I'm also so freaking happy that she got out of that toxic environment and is in a better place now
"is in a better place now" made me chuckle, could give someone the wrong idea
The irony is that she wrote how she was at some point only hired to play the aggressive, creepy, traumatized, dark kid characters because it was the only thing she knew how to do well because that was just her life.
Fred's mom probably says it's dangerous to put electronics near his head because she believes it will interfere with the tracking device
your MIND op
Exactly my thoughts. I think he overthought that a bit.
Biggus brainus MOMENTUS 🤯
i had the same theory!
ReaD this comment as he said it
I love how the only thing that is actually illegal in the iCarly universe is pirating movies
Ikr lol. Also that episode was literally how I learned what pirating movies meant. I'd see the little adverts on DVDs when I was just learning how to read a few years before the show aired and had no clue what it meant.
Donating money to streamers was illegal too.
Yarr

Duh?

@@loturzelrestaurant .... huh?
I'm so glad you addressed the mean-spirited, almost discriminatory streak this show exhibited. I couldn't place it but you said it perfectly: the meanness of Seinfeld but without the self-awareness
It's so fucking funny to me that you mentioned having iCarly nightmares. Like 80% of my regard towards iCarly as one of my core childhood shows is tainted by the fact that when I was 9 or so I had a really bad fever and spent a whole night having waking nightmares starring the iCarly cast. I'd be shivering in my bed, half delirious, needing to go across the hall to the bathroom but being stopped by these twisting and shouting images of Carly, Sam, and Spencer. Never Freddy strangely enough, he's too pure. I couldn't keep watching it after that.
Jesus Christ +2 😭😭
omg this is so scary sjsbnsjxnsnfjd
i love how the spirit of freddie left you alone lol.
Carly, Sam, and Spencer, but Freddie left you alone.
What about the fifth main cast member, Gibby?

@@librasuperstar3779 thats what i was thinking lol
@@marafolse8347 same
Exactly what I tought
I don't think anything has ever had me laughing as hard before as Sam saying cheese and Spencer saying ointment and then Freddy completely seriously saying "I think global warming is incredibly important" I don't know why it's just incredibly hilarious to me
The show was very well written, despite all the shit surrounding it. I'm currently rewatching it (that's why I've come back to the video too!) and I'm bummed it had to be such a weird production. Doesn't make the show itself less hilarious, it just makes the feelings upon watching it way more complex. Kinda impossible to evaluate without taking Schneider and Jeanette's mom into account,
@@vitormelomedeirosdisse tudo!
is there a timestamp for this in the video ? :D
@@puppetxi0n3:16:37
2021 Quinton making iBinged iCarly: "We have now finished the longest intermission in the history of intermissions."
2023 Quinton making The Decay of Sam & Cat: "I'm 4 parallel universes ahead of you."
It's interesting to see Quinton go through his arc of finding a new bottom, saying how iCarly is sometimes hard to watch, and then miss the show when he's watching Victorious. Then missing Victorious when watching Sam & Cat. Truly a video essay about his video essays could be made in itself.
How did I just realize the sam being forced into beauty pageants storyline is literally Jeannette mccurdy’s life. How cruel of them to acknowledge the truth of that, write it into the show, have her act it out, and play a laugh track over her childhood trauma…
Have you read her book? It's very good and dives so deep into so much of her life
How they also made Sam be a food glutton when they knew Jeannette had an active eating disorder…
@@opalensue1989 i think the point was that they didnt know. it was a secret thing her mom taught her. producers and staff on set would comment on her body as if there was nothing wrong with it, they couldnt tell what she was doing. nobody knew about her eating problems, not even the creator, as she was so good at pretending to eat in front of others (before her bulemia)
Comedy comes from pain... or so they say
@@davespwite not true..she weighed 65 pounds at age 14
It sad how Sam is portrayed as this always hungry, always eating girl when during the time of filming she developed a complex eating disorder.
Sam eats girls?
@@livelybubbs6242 13 year old me certainly hoped so
That's sad as hell. Jennette McCurdy deserved so much better. She was such a figure in my childhood and yet she was completely ruined by the entertainment industry that caused kids to gain an immense respect for her. It is so horrid.
In context of the show it's kind of sad as well realizing that there is a chance that Sam's mom doesn't really give two shits about her, so there is a chance that her mom just forgets to buy food for her.
@@livelybubbs6242 it feels really insensitive to put a quirky wlw joke on a comment that’s about a mistreated child developing an eating disorder :/
@@CreoTan humour is the light at the end of the darkest tunnel. And I was making a cannibalism joke, based on a grammatical error.
50:04 "Carly is being placed into a casting couch situation"
Carly: "He's creepy"
Sam: "Be nice to him. You know how important this review is for our show."
dang.
The fact that you are dedicating approximately 3 years of your life to a shitpost is fucking iconic and has earned you a subscriber.
now hold on.
They wanted Spencer to prove he was a responsible adult? HE DID JUST THAT!?
like seriously the "I don't [think she looks good], but she's a teen, you've gotta let her express herself" is one of the best lessons a show for kids can teach to both its intended audience and their parents!
yeah but i feel like that gets overshadowed by the fire that breaks out.
It's such a nice little detail, how Spencer *does* handle it well, just not in a way Grandad approves of. If Spencer had handled it badly, we'd feel less good seeing him keep custody of Carly in the end.
@@breadeater1194 I agree its a great detail.
sadly, teens expressing themselves usually means sex, drugs and doing dumb shit. id know because i was a teen and did exactly that.
@@Farrowstrike well yeah, but the difference is shes not hurting anybody through her choice of outfit. its a process of self discovery that harms nobody. im pretty sure spencer wouldnt let carly snort coke or throw rocks at cars...
After reading Jeanette’s book it’s so crazy how much shit they joked about in the show was so reflective of the real abuse she faced. Like her mom was more like Freddie’s mom. Her mom would bathe her and examine her until she was 16. She said Miranda really was her first and only friend and she was really a safe place away from home. And the way they constantly joke about her eating habits when in reality HER MOTHER was starving her and teaching her to have eating disorders. It also gave her this success that put her in a position where she was made the sole provider in her home as a child. It makes all the sense in the world that she wouldn’t want anything to do with the reboot. Also her real humor is so dark and dry and brief in her stories that have more important sad messages and the shows sitcom humor is worlds away from her real self
Yeah honestly if they were even trying to recruit her for the reboot, they should have offered her a contract promising that she wouldn't have to put up with any of that sh*t anymore. Either way, good on her for choosing what was better for her.
Ya it’s really disgusting the way Dan treated her to he pressured her to drink underage by saying that the victorious cast did it which makes sense of why she didn’t like Ariana grande the book was fantastic best memoir any celebrity has written
It is INCREDIBLY on the nose, and it's honestly kinda bizarre on all fronts. Like... is this behaviour typical enough of abusive parents that it happened to show up as a wacky sitcom trope, or did Schneider somehow know about how Debra McCurdy was treating her own daughter?
@@TheWAYF I think the industry attracts a lot of toxic parents and personally theorize that Dan Schneider pushes parents to see abusive neglectful behavior as normal in that industry to allow him the space to abuse them. He got Amanda bynes emancipated as a teen and wanted her to move in with him (she may have done it I can’t remember)
WHere can I see her real dark and dry humour?
i love coming back to this video 2 years later because you can barely notice just how soul-crushing of a journey quinton is about to go on
30:40 An old comment pointed this out too though it's been buried, so it's worth repeating - this isn't all that convinces Carly's grandpa that Spencer is fit to look after her. After the cooking fire and it seeming inevitable that Carly is leaving, Spencer gives his grandpa lists of all sorts of things Carly likes - food, drink (distinguishing been soups and chowders, too) - and relays a lot of particulars like what sort of vitamins (dino-shaped) and coffee - because he knows she loves coffee - he gives her (decaf in secret.) All this made it clear to Grandpa Shay that he can in fact be a responsible, mature adult capable of looking after Carly, and the exchange with the inhaler (where Spencer gives it to his grandpa after Carly insists she doesn't need it anymore) sealed the deal. I think that's all quite important character detail; that for as dysfunctional as the character is portrayed he really does care, and is a positive older figure and role model in Carly's life.
Gibby saying “I thought Spencer was your dad” will never not make me laugh
"So...Spencer's NOT your dad?"
He might as well be.
4:17:00
Yeah 😅 It’s also kinda bittersweet because he’s there as her guardian instead of their dad. I guess Gibby hasn’t seen or met their dad. I might be wrong but I only remember seeing him in the finale
It's especially funny to me because it's what I thought at first when I was younger
Lewbert having a panic attack all while the laugh track intensifies is actually one of the most uncomfortable things I've ever seen in a kids show.
time stamp plz?
@@dani-xw3lc 3:46:10
@@gaslightgatekeepgirlboss6321 thx
Very
As someone who has actually experienced a relationship like that it just made me really sad for Lewbert. While I feel his reaction was played up for laughs, it can really feel like that sometimes
This poor man… Quinton had so much hope… So much innocent joy. He had no idea the journey he was embarking upon...
The IKiss episode is so ruined by Jeanette's story about it.
Back then everybody was hyped, now we know it traumatized a child...
Edit: grammar
Gibby is a true homie for figuring out something was wrong when the gang got kidnapped and went to confront a psycho with no regard for his own safety. He was a true hero
Too bad he fucking died.
Then in Sam and Cat he sold his friends out
Fr, its a very good character moment
@@BlatenHero WHAT? Was he older in the spinoff? People can drastically change but GIBBY? Why they had to butcher his character so much?
@@danielsurvivor1372 In the super psycho episode of Sam and cat after Nora breaks out of prison and she see him at the movies he gives her sam's address and then says good luck
The problem with Carly's boyfriend was that he punched walls when upset...like, ma'am THAT'S the red flag
He joins an MLM in the reboot. 🤣 that in itself is a red banner
I can confirm it’s a red flag because after a few months you turn into the wall that they punch, as if an object to be used 🙃
He was also 22 and she was 15 irl
I have a punching pillow for when I get angry. Really helps with playing dark souls.
But nooooo, the issue is him being into 'girly' stuff 🙄
I’m English and this video is how I discovered that David Archuleta is a real person and not a character on iCarly
Lmao that's fair I forgot it was called AMERICAN Idol 😂
The thing about the “huge” iCarly fans not knowing Spencer was always confusing to me as well. In retrospect, it might have been a running gag, but the only punchline I can think of would be that those “huge iCarly fans” aren’t actually fans and only want to talk to Carly and the gang for clout.
The problem is the only times this seemed to happen was with Fred/Lucas and Jackson Colt, two already famous people in the iCarly universe who wouldn’t have needed any clout. Unless there were more examples I forgot about lol
It cpuldve been a joke like "primus sucks"
“Goddamn, Spencer fucks.” Best quote from the whole thing.

@@cloudfallen @1:49:30. A little after this
@@chaichapstick thank you!! i appreciate it
I guess Spencer is similar to Brian Griffen they both hook up with mostly one off chicks.
Holy shit, the whole, “Freddi’s mom purposely has the pointy part sticking out,” says a lot.
I know it's so subtle. I can't believe they actually put that much thought into it
I remember watching that episode with my family and my dad pointed it out. He's the mechanic, carpenter dad and said that it was reckless because they looked like very small philps head screwdrivers and was actually dangerous so he didn't know why she didn't hand it to him like she would a knife. At the time I was like "dad it's a joke don't make it serious" but now I go hmmmm
That was my favorite tidbit in the entire video. I was, as the kids say, *shook*.
what pointy part?
It feels so munchausen syndrome by proxy.
1:50:49 you’re right about Carly, she’s literally a walking ball of pure anxiety
Okay but the show had some of the funniest one liners including “then why do you have this board that says ‘ideas we can steal from iCarly’?!” and “well I ain’t supervising what you produced in there”
Damn when he said "if its done tomorrow ill upload it tomorrow" he wasn't lyin
I NEVER THOUGHT THAT WAS A REALISTIC PROMISE
I know right?
he's the realest.
WE DIDN’T TAKE IT LITERALLY!
I know right
“Spencer is secretly Banksy” is exactly the take I needed from this
It makes a lot of sense tbh
@@clarab325 Because it’s canon.
If the writers see this maybe they’ll put it in the reboot
"I don't! But she's a teenager, you gotta let them express themselves" Spencer is the best :)
Honestly, if I found out my date was willing to humiliate himself in front of the entire internet to make his baby sister happy, I'd be really impressed
Still marveling at how Jerry Trainor handled these wildly inappropriate scenes with kids in the most respectful way possible and without his character having sexual undertones.
Jerry really does feel like the wacky, yet responsible adult that protected the kids from the whole thing being way, way worse.
One example is at 2:35:30. Many of the adults in the production of these shows took every opportunity to put their hands on the kids in some way or another. Meanwhile, Jerry has Miranda slung over his shoulder and carries her down the stairs while barely touching her. You can clearly see how respectful he is of her and the other kids in many different scenes like this.
He has a lot of integrity as an actor and a person as far as I can tell. Obviously, Spencer accounted for a large number of inappropriate and compromising situations involving the kids, but the tone is somehow a lot more innocent and lighthearted than most of the weird shit on the show. I could be totally biased in this opinion though, because I clearly love Jerry.
I 100% agree with you. He captures the wholesome big brother vibe so well. Quinton makes a joke about the scene where Spencer puts pop rocks in his mouth and puts his mouth over sam's ear being a crime, but to me it seems so much like something a goofy big brother would do that it doesn't seem weird to me
Yeah 100% agreed
@@veronicadar1382 Some times to annoy my little sis,i would munch near her ear and she would go 'ewww',it has the same feel.
Jerry was to Miranda, Jennette, Noah, and Nathan what Liz Gillies was to Ariana Grande; a person who would sort of step in Dan's way anytime he would get too close to them. Think of an alcoholic about to beat his kids getting stopped by one of their older siblings, that's basically what happened on set with Dan and the kid actors.
Yea even my parents liked him (they actually liked the show itself) they thought he was a fun character while still being a responsible adult, so many sitcoms have the responsible adult be bland and played for a joke so he was a nice change
I never really appreciated Gibby as a kid (probably because I mostly watched iCarly with my brothers when i was supposed to be babysitting them and the whole shirtless dancing schtick is very much an imitable act) but he really is the most normal person in the whole cast, huh? They're over here with their crazy parents and their weekly dramas and everything and Gibby's just doing his thing. He's got a girlfriend, apparently really solid and sweet relationships with his mom and brother, he just drops in sometimes to see what the gang's up to. They're like, his weird weekend hobby
Ironically, yeah. The guy with the weird name and the early-show habit of taking off his shirt without warning is probably one of the more normal characters in the show
Damn I never would have noticed this
It's like how Sinjin in Victorious is the character that's most like an actual highschooler
Yeah I remember him being a very solid character. He not only takes being a “fat laughing stock” well, he ends up lifting his chin at the criticism and embraces living his life happily the way he wants to.
Gibby's just fucking vibing, man, and you just gotta vibe with him.
One thing that I'm surprised you didn't mention. Gibby's girlfriend Tasha is played by super model Emily Ratajkowski
As a kid watching the show, I didn’t know who she was, but that’s really cool now that I do
WHAT.
Spencer pulling some of the hottest women will always be insane and then i realize bro makes sculptures that are in galleries and it all starts making sense
"Spencer doesn't have adult friends"
Does Socko just mean nothing to you
Or Socko's appropriately named relatives
Socko never appeared on screen if l recall correctly tho, so Spencer is never seen with any adult friends
@@Sponsie1000 They should have made an episode where Carly questions if Socko is even real and thinks Spencer made him up because of his lack of adult friends because she never met him, so Spencer invites him over and then shenanigans happen and Carly still doesn't believe he's real and only actually meets him at the very end of the episode.
And maybe T-bo
I’m thinking Socko is 20, 12 or over 50
when i rewatched icarly, i remember thinking like, "WHOA, i did NOT remember how OFTEN carly gets creeped on by some older adult man." that happens SO often on the show, and it is always played for laughs...says a lot about dan schneider

This show was actually an awakening to me as a child bc this was the show that made me realize TV shows weren't live-acted each time they were shown. I used to be so confused why they wore the same outfits in the same episodes and had the same inflections and everything. I didn't know shows were recorded and re-run lmao. Also when the show was being promoted i never wanted to watch it bc the scene where Spencer shot milk out of his eyes grossed me out. And then until maybe the final year of its original run I had thought the second episode was the premiere episode and never seen the pilot until then. I was nine when the show started. Baby me was a time
oh my god i used to think shows were live-acted every time they were shown, too. never met anybody else who did
THANK GOD I WASNT THE ONLY CHILD TO THINK THIS
Can we talk about how Carly's goth outfit actually looked pretty good though?
Yeah shit's rad. Like the costume department honestly did a great job.
it is such a minor part of this video but. god the “iwant to stay with spencer” episode always makes me SOB. the shay siblings clearly don’t want to be separated, and even though he knows he has to change their grandpa’s mind to get to keep her with him, he refuses to change the way he interacts with carly. he keeps being a massive goober, he immediately tells her how good she looks even if he doesn’t like it cause he doesn’t want to break her self esteem, and he’s protective enough to worry about something that hasn’t been a problem in years. i adore spencer, and i’ve always wished they did more shay sibling stuff.
He was a better father figure to Carly, than many ACTUAL fathers in the world today.
Ion know why but your analysis of Spencer made me tear up. He really was an amazing brother
I was waiting for this part of the video as it’s literally one of my top 3 episodes but I never saw it!! I must’ve missed it 😭 if anyone has any idea what time frame it might be at please let me know
@@atheniastanford4889 the episode analysis starts at 28:57 !!
Seriously. He had one single accident with Carly and that was enough to convince their crazy grandfather he couldn't be trusted? And just because Spencer's unorthodox and a general klutz, he feels like that strengthens his point about wanting to take Carly away?
How about the fact that he's a talented artist who lives in a pretty good looking apartment with Carly, who by the way is in a healthy school environment and is obviously well fed and looked after? Granddad just overlooks all the good points.
Although later on it was revealed that their dad was helping by sending money XD but still, Spencer was making some of that money himself.
iCarly is harder to watch after reading ‘I’m Glad My Mom Died’.
Shelby Marx is played by Victoria Justice. Who plays Tori Vega in Victorious. Which canonically exists in the same universe as iCarly. VICTORIA JUSTICE EXISTS TWICE IN THE METAVERSE
(2:35:30)
Andre as well! He ended up in the dino suit.
I think both Victoria Justice and Jennette McCurdy played characters in Zoey 101, and Jerry Trainor (Spencer) played Crazy Steve in Drake & Josh. The NSU is absolutely riddled with doppelgängers!
Just how many things about the internet did iCarly predict?? Even down to swatting and internet celebs setting up fights with professional fighters, it's like the Simpsons of the internet

I am so furious. I am so shocked. I cannot believe that you only mentioned Socko once. He was such a big part in the side characters. During the 4 hour mark, you mentioned Spencer didn’t have adult friends, yet Socko was there. Justice 4 Socko 😔🙏
Don't forget Socko's cousin, Tyler! The one who makes light up neck ties. My memory could be slightly skewed though, iCarly feels like a fever dream sometimes
he talks about him and his extensive family tree in p2 😎
@@paulpaul7774 along with auto the car mechanic and rob who steals stuff. theres probs more that i cant remember
Not to mention Tyler Socko's cousin
Him and his family is mentioned in part 2 during a mini intermission
Looking back, I think the reason why iCarly felt more genuine than any of the other Nick teen dramas is because it was the last show to actually focus on a bunch of kids in a plausably normal kids life. It's successors would all put kids into situations that are at best, college level enviroments, if not outright adult enviroments and the joke being "these kids are doing an adult job". Worse is the latter type almost always devolve back to normal highschool drama, which not only feels out of place (as they often have to contrive a reason why someone who is clearly no longer needing school still needs to care about school matters), but also render the original gimmick pointless.
I started watching The Collapse of Sam & Cat, but when I realized there was years of context I was missing out, so I started here.
I just finished watching this video, and to answer your question, no, everything is not ok.
Looking at Spencer's sculptures as an adult, I really like a lot of them. I don't think they say a lot culturally, and they wouldn't be great museum pieces, but each of them has so much joy and playfulness put into them that I could see them being great in an office or park or home or something. I really hope that the set dresser or whoever made them had fun doing it.
I think they'd fit in at contemporary art exhibits! A lot of art is like Spencer's, and there are museums dedicated to it.
Not to mention you can tell he actually put effort into all his sculptures.
Or a children’s museum !!
i want them in the Guggenheim
*ART* doesn't belong in a museum period
Edit: unless like faeries or elder gods (or one of the other outerversal nuisances) exist but that's hypothetical for now and thus a mute point

I am watching this in 2023 and the second you said "David swimmer drowns and dies" made my mouth drop. MATTHEW PERRY DROWNED THIS YEAR. OMG
Nobody is gonna read this, but this is like my 6th rewatch of this video and a memory was awoken in me
So when season 1 was airing for the first time, my parents saw me watching icarly with my sisters and their first impression of the show her 9 and 7 year old were watching was the joke about "Ms Briggs' pointy boobs" and we weren't allowed to watch it anymore. (before season 1 finished airing we were regularly watching it again despite that)
My friends at school knew about this, and in front of me talked about how funny "the episode where there's acid rain that turns people into candy" was, and FOR YEARS i watched and recorded icarly religiously hoping to see the damn acid rain episode that i was too gullible to realize was a complete fabrication

My head canon for the inconsistency of his mother's rules about electronic devices near Freddie's head, is that she was afraid other devices might interfere with the one in his head.
That’s what I was thinking lol

“head” canon
bc
its about his head
Or that she only trusts her devices because she made them herself
Freddie's mother must have that Chuck McGill disease.

The thing about Freddie being shorter and looking so much younger than the girls is kind of interesting because although that's not what you'd expect from a TV show, in real life, teenage boys do look younger than girls their age.
Puberty hits girls earlier, so there's a brief period where teen girls will end up taller than the boys their same age, only for the boys to eventually hit puberty a couple years later and outgrow them again. Which is what we see here! I agree, I'm surprised it doesn't come up more often.
@@MasterOphSky I always liked that gag where Freddie finally overpowers Carly after she spent the first season manhandling him, its a nice bit of character development like "yeah, Freddie's not so much of a dweeb anymore"
It’s fairly common and explains why they often cast older guys even when their female character is actually a teen. Especially in that middle school age. You often see guys super tall with facial hair walking the hall beside little guys who look like they belong back in elementary school.
@@TheDawnofVanlife Haha yeah I was one of those late bloomers. I was the third shortest kid in my middle school graduation grade, but now I’m taller than a lot of the same friends I’ve known since then.
puberty can hit girls as young as 8 years old while for boys it pretty much never starts until 14-15
'She's a little teenager. You gotta let kids express themselves.' I wish I was raised by Spencer. My dad never let me express myself at all. No eyeliner, no nail polish, dress the way he approves etc... I am glad he's gone from my life for good.
I was just always under the impression that their military father paid for the apartment
Me too, because Spencer is taking on the parental role, it makes sense.
Absolutely did, it was supposed to be Spencer's law school money, he even begs his dad to keep sending checks after he finds out the truth in the finale
the layering of the clothes on this show is BONKERS. it's like no character is ever allowed to just wear one shirt 🤣
Except for Gibby, who has the ability to remove his shirt to become the ultimate lifeform
That was just the style for kids then. Layering was so popular that clothing companies started making shirts that looked like two shirts layered together.

4:06:35 a "bum party" is actually one of the few clear memories I have of my dad. he had our whole family dress up as "homeless" and we just sat in our yard around a fire all evening. I remember my mom painting a heart on my cheek. anyway he died a few years later
I didn’t realize how often iCarly pulled the “joke” of “sexual assault or harassment is committed but it’s happening to a man so we’ll play it for laughs.” Gives me the icky shivers

Man, what a wild start to this "mini"series that you have created. Massive props to you, Quinton!
Quinton: "I failed."
Me: "How dare you say something so false."
It's especially weird to have an episode making fun of somebody neurodivergent when you also have a character (Spencer) who is so very clearly ADHD-coded to an at times painfully accurate degree but who is almost exclusively portrayed in a positive light.
Because spencers eccentricites are also played for laughs and its acted as if hes just "immature." When a kid does it, its annoying, when an adilt does it, they need to "grow up"
i do think it’s because they don’t see adhd as “real” at the time, especially in adults. like it’s more just spencer acting like a hyper-active 9 year old and that’s the joke.
I think it also brings up a point about how neurodivergency is seen as annoying in children, and isn't taken seriously in girls and women.
Wait which episode are we talking about?
As Quinton put it, the shows says it's cool to be Different, but not... *different*. One is the lol random wacky personality of an adult man, another is just a weird and annoying little girl, in the eyes of the show and its writers.
