{{work}}

* [[Ugly Guy, Hot Wife|Ugly Guy, Hot Girlfriend]]: Gibby/Tasha

* [[Uncanny Family Resemblance]]: [[Played for Laughs]].

* [[Urine Trouble]]: "Who has urine trouble?"

{{quote|'''Sam''' [''having been babysitting Ginger Fox's baby]]'']: Careful, he's a distance pee-er." }}

* [[The Vamp]]: Valerie in ''iWill Date Freddie'' uses her feminine wiles to lure Freddie to her web show, temporarily stealing him from iCarly, and goes so far as to [[Les Yay|try it on Sam]]. Another example is Missy trying to "break up" Carly and Sam.

* [[Very Special Episode]]: ''iGet Pranky'' sort of subverts this. While it may be a more general, subtle "just say no" message, the lack of dramatic seriousness suggests that it's a [[Take That]] to other older teen shows like [[Saved by the Bell]].

** Gibby's voice has deepened as well.

* [[The Voiceless]]: The little girl who infiltrates the Shays' apartment in ''iSpace Out''.

* [[Wacky Guy]]: Spencer.

* [[Wafer-Thin Mint]]: ''iDate A Bad Boy'' with Spencer's pressure trigger plate. An obese postman steps on it but still doesn't activate it. The alarm fires off when Spencer handed the postman a stamp.

'''Carly''': If he's a nub, someday I wanna be Mrs. Carly Nub. }}

* [[Word Salad Philosophy]]: Reuben in ''iWin A Date''. Also, in the video "iHave A Question: Weird and Random" on the website, where the cast descend into 'Reubenesque' banter.

* [[Xanatos Gambit]]: After ''iOMG'', arguably Sam's subconscious rationale towards her behavior towards Freddie (and the possibility towards her hope that [[Last Girl Wins]]) all the way back to ''iPilot''.

* [[X Meets Y]]: [[Lizzie McGuire]] meets [[YouTube]], minus the animated counterpart.

* [[Yandere]]: Miss Ackerman to Spencer in "iHave A Lovesick Teacher".

** Marta Trundel, Lewbert's ex girlfriend. Because of her, Lewbert got his wart and was compelled to change his name to escape from her. The woman seemed to be a pretty nice and cool girlfriend you could ask for until her [[True Colors]] showed as a manic [[Control Freak]]. Lastly, Lewbert was more than happy to stay in prison just to get away from her and smacked a cop to extend his imprisonment.

** Carly occasionally pulls this on Sam when they have a big fight, most especially in their iconic <s>divorce</s> [[Les Yay|break-up]] scene in ''iQuit iCarly''. The show even handwaves that Carly is very aware how horrible her best friend can be.

* [[You Should Have Died Instead|You Should Have Almost Died Instead]]: Mrs. Benson to Carly in "iSaved Your Life." Even though Freddie chose to get hit by a truck instead of Carly, who he saved, his mom interprets the incident as Carly trying to kill Freddie.

* [[Zettai Ryouiki]]: Carly rocked a Grade B level of this in ''iHave My Principals''.

** Sam got a class D one during their Pathetic Play skit in ''iSpeed Date''.

** [[Defied Trope|Defied]] in ''iWant My Website Back''. Mandy comes up with a plan to get iCarly.com back from Nevel. As soon as she mentions it involving [[Noodle Implements|three zebras]], Sam shuts her up.
