Line 51:
** Also, Spencer/Sam. People would ship it anyway, but he's nearly twice her age, with her being between 14 to 17 during the show's run and Spencer being 26 to 29. A recent episode had Spencer lean over and tongue Sam's ear so she could hear his pop rocks crackling. In a later episode stated that she had a crush on Spencer.
** A meta fumble, with the writers creating two opposing [[Shipping]] sects, with the [[Just Friends]] Carly/Freddie romance vs the [[Belligerent Sexual Tension]] couple Sam/Freddie, and then pushing each in multiple episodes, only to turn around and tell the audience they were watching the show wrong.
* [[Running the Asylum]]: ''iOMG'' and ''iLose My Mind'' Sam/Freddie romance arc episodes utterly match several of the biggest [[Fandom -Specific Plot]] lines and the most common fanfic tropes. Sam and Freddie end up [[Locked in a Room]] together at the school. Sam giving Freddie a [[Forceful Kiss]] to clear up that Sam actually likes him. Carly becoming a [[Fixer Sue]] and a [[Shipper on Deck]] and Freddie returning Sam's feelings without any explanation or closure for his feelings for Carly.
* [[Screwed by the Network]]: Many fans believe the show has fallen into this lately. Recent episodes falling below three million viewers, and they claim Nickelodeon does not care for the show anymore due to a complete lack of promotion. The general feeling is that the network cares only for [[Victorious]] which gains far more promotion than any recent episodes of [[iCarly]] have, promotes the actors on Victorious much harder, and has yet to decide if they want to make another final series of [[iCarly]] or just stick to the final 13 or so episodes that started with ''iApril Fools''.
** And now [http://www.tvguide.com/News/iCarly-Series-Finale-1047581.aspx iCarly is indeed ending this year.]
Line 298:
** Why did Freddie end up in Seattle, or more accurately, why did his mother come to Seattle on her own, with him. Often combined with the father question.
* [[Fan Fic Magnet]]: Sasha Striker.
* [[Fandom -Specific Plot]]: All Type One, plots that are unusually popular in the fandom but aren't specific to the fandom.
** Seddie: Sam gets pregnant by Freddie. Started due to a Seddie pregnancy writing challenge that flooded ff.net a while back.
*** Sam and Freddie ending up in a play together. Usually Romeo and Juliet.
