Line 41:
* [[Screwed by the Network]]: After season three, Nick has taken a decidedly inconsistent approach to the show. It only orders 13 episodes at at time compared to the 26 or so that it was doing in the first three, it airs the show at random times, advertises that the entire season will be played every week, then stops it after 3 episodes, puts on new episodes with little advertising, and then starts putting them on at weird times, such as Wednesday the 28th of December for the second blooper episode, and then 8-9pm New Year's Eve for the iPsycho sequel. Admittedly, Dan Schneider has to take some of the blame, as he seems to have poor time management, which means Nick were only ordering 13 episodes of both iCarly and ''[[Victorious]]'' when they could have fit full seasons in even with the studio split (the two shows share the same studio space, and can't film when the other is filming) taken into account. This odd handling of the show and it's timeslots is one the bigger reasons for the abysmal ratings for Season 5 compared to seasons 2, 3 and 4.
* [[So My Kids Can Watch]]: [[The West Wing|Joshua]] [[Sports Night|Malina]] appeared on the show because his children love it.
* [[Why Fandom Can't Have Nice Things]]: Before Season 3 had started airing, Dan posted a [http://icarly.wikia.com/wiki/File:40991089.jpg script fragment from a future episode]. He took it down quickly, but it was reposted on various sites. Naturally, shippers from both sides went nuts, especially on [[Live JournalLiveJournal]]. After heavy criticism about Dan ruining the fandom and the LJ communities with his interaction he quit and deleted his [[Live JournalLiveJournal]], without warning or notice (meaning the fandom lost alot of interesting interaction with him), and eventually setup his own blog site, which he claimed was for better control, but his first post was about being pissed off with reponses to his script.
* [[Word of God]]: [[Dan Schneider]]. Vary carefully avoids [[Lying Creator]] by using ambiguous meanings, hypothetical, counter-questions in response to questions and shrowding common shipping viewpoints in terms of what "his friends" might think about what's happening. Was very active in the fandom up to the start of Season 3, although not as much now that he's dealing with ''[[Victorious]]'' as well as the 4th season of ''iCarly''.
