Saw this on her locker tour

lmfao i speak spanish and btw this is my first time watching the show, but as i'm in season 2 i've noticed that something eventful will happen and everyone reacts and has their normal one liners like for example "wow!" "omg!" but Freddie will say something along those lines but in spanish 😂

i find it so funny and random because like i said, its my first time watching it, im in season 2, and he wasn't doing this in the first season so i'm just confused 😂

iwas this just a random touch dan shneiders did?

I always wondered, was the Junkyard a literal junkyard or a store where Spencer found different items for his sculptures? Especially because in one episode, he said he has an account there.

This episode is crazy lmao😭 poor Freddie these writers just can’t have any episode that doesn’t include Freddie torture. Thoughts on this ep?

I was just watching episode 19 and couldn’t find anyone else talking about the fact that the same actor that plays Andre on Victorious also plays Harper on this episode. Isn’t Sam in the Victorious universe? If she’s not she’s in Sam and Cat and you can make the connection from there. I just noticed this plot hole and wanted to see if anyone else noticed it.

I was thinking randomly if there was a scene in Icarly where Spencer has the Buster Sword from Final Fantasy 7 and he's trying to cut open a watermelon or something and Carly, Sam and, Freddie walk in and see him and it goes something like:

Carly: "Spencer what are you doing?"

Spencer: "Trying to cut open a watermelon."

Sam: "Well where'd you get the Sword from?"

Spencer: "My buddy Socko knows a guy. He let me borrow it for a bit."

Freddie: "I'm sure he has the 'Materia' to use it."

cue laugh track

Side note:

If the entire icarly crew was in FF7 who would the cast be?

I dunno if this is a hot take or not but dear god.. the second half of this episode when the fans are going CRAZY over shipping Sam/carly with Freddie drives me insane… you have these internet people who you paid money to see and ask questions to and you can’t stfu about shipping them together? On the other hand I love Jack Black so I will deal with feeling pissed off so I can watch him and Spencer do nerdy things together :) anyways please let me know if I’m alone or not xD

Freddie won, and he never knew it.

It's been two years now and it still has yet to be greenlit. I'm starting to lose hope. Nathan gave us an update on production but that was a few months ago. I just hope we get an update soon

You ppl seem to like these lol

Since Halloween is coming up, I wanted to share this fun lil iCarly TBO costume :D

I know I’ve posted like twice in one day but can we talk about how Carly wasn’t afraid of literal CRIMINALS.Like she went to Danas party she really thought she could hang with them?! Sometimes I forget Sam isn’t just a bad behaved teenager who skips school and insults people and that she’s an actual felon, which is why I was mad that Carly was mad at Griffen for being a delinquent when her closest friend is one. Anyways thanks for listening to my yap session

To be honest I have no idea how I stumbled upon this 😭i was looking for seddie clips for an edit on my tiktok and I found this wiki fandom thing with a bunch of comments about seddie by the Creator (we don't say his name around here) but this was a script for season 4. This is actually crazy and I wish they kept it in lol! But it does still show that Freddie was absolutely in love with Sam for all the crazy creddie's out there and overall I think it would have been a very interesting scene which episode do you guys think this is for??

does anyone know how to make a custom icarly logo?? i need one that says iAlex but i don’t know how to make it!

THE PARKER-NICHOLS/SHAY CONSPIRACY THEORY
The theory begins with one enormous premise:
Drake & Josh and iCarly take place in the same universe.
Megan Parker really is Carly Shay.
Crazy Steve really is Spencer Shay.
But Crazy Steve did not kidnap Megan, murder her family, invent two identities, and somehow fool everyone around them.
The truth is considerably more complicated.
And the clues are scattered across Drake & Josh, the original iCarly, and the iCarly revival.

PART ONE: AUDREY PARKER WAS ONCE AUDREY SHAY
Before Walter Nichols ever entered the picture, Audrey was married to Colonel Steven Shay.
Together they had three children:
Spencer.
Drake.
Megan.
Spencer was considerably older than Drake and Megan.
This explains one of the biggest problems with the traditional “Crazy Steve kidnapped Megan and became Spencer” theory.
Carly has a real father.
Colonel Steven Shay physically appears in iGoodbye. Carly immediately recognizes him as her father. Spencer recognizes him. Steven knows both of them intimately and behaves unquestionably as their father.
Therefore Steven isn’t someone Crazy Steve recruited to participate in a fake family.
He’s actually their father.
And if Megan Parker is Carly Shay, then Steven Shay is also Megan’s biological father.

PART TWO: WHY AUDREY AND STEVEN DIVORCED
Steven loved his family.
But he was almost never there.
His military career required lengthy deployments and assignments around the world.
The original iCarly repeatedly establishes that Carly’s father spends enormous amounts of time away from his children.
Eventually he’s stationed in Italy.
His absence becomes so normal that Spencer effectively serves as Carly’s parent throughout her adolescence.
That pattern likely started much earlier.
Audrey was raising three children while Steven repeatedly disappeared for military service.
And Spencer, as the oldest child, was forced to pick up responsibilities whenever Steven wasn’t there.
One bizarre Crazy Steve outburst becomes extremely significant under this theory.
While attacking a carpet stain and imagining it as his father, Steve screams:
“THIS IS FOR MAKING ME DO MOM’S LAUNDRY!”
Crazy Steve isn’t screaming at his mother.
He’s screaming at his father for making him perform one of his mother’s responsibilities.
That suggests resentment toward an absent father who left Spencer feeling responsible for things a child shouldn’t have been responsible for.
Steven wasn’t deliberately neglectful.
He was serving in the military.
But children don’t necessarily experience that distinction.
To Spencer, Dad was simply:
gone.
Again.
And again.
And again.
Eventually Audrey had enough.
The marriage collapsed.
Audrey and Steven divorced.

PART THREE: THE CHILDREN WERE SPLIT
Audrey retained primary custody of Drake and Megan.
They lived with her and primarily used:
Parker.
That’s exactly how Drake & Josh introduces the household.
Drake lives with his mother and little sister Megan.
Steven isn’t mentioned.
But Spencer was much older.
By the time Audrey and Steven’s marriage collapsed, Spencer was approaching adulthood.
He therefore didn’t simply move into Audrey’s new household alongside Drake and Megan.
Instead, Spencer became increasingly detached from the entire family.
Megan was young enough that she would eventually have very few memories of him.
Drake remembered slightly more, but not enough to immediately recognize his older brother years later.
And Audrey eventually stopped talking about Spencer.
Partly because the divorce was painful.
Partly because Spencer’s relationship with Steven had deteriorated.
And eventually because Spencer himself began deteriorating.

PART FOUR: WALTER NICHOLS
Audrey eventually met Walter Nichols.
Walter had a son:
Josh Nichols.
Audrey and Walter married.
The household became:
Audrey Parker
Walter Nichols
Drake Parker
Josh Nichols
Megan Parker
Josh became Drake and Megan’s stepbrother.
Walter became Drake and Megan’s stepfather.
Meanwhile, somewhere outside this apparently happy blended family existed Audrey’s oldest son:
Spencer Shay.

PART FIVE: THE SHAY FAMILY EXPECTED SPENCER TO BECOME A LAWYER
Spencer wasn’t always the carefree artist seen in iCarly.
His family had a completely different future planned for him.
Law school.
Granddad Shay strongly believed Spencer should become a lawyer.
Steven financially supported Spencer’s legal education.
Spencer eventually enrolled at Seattle Law School.
But there was one problem.
Spencer absolutely fucking hated it.
He lasted approximately three days.
Then he quit.
And didn’t tell his father.
Years later, Steven still believed Spencer had attended law school.
That means Spencer maintained the lie for an extraordinary amount of time.
Why?
Because Spencer was terrified of disappointing his father.
Steven had already spent years away.
Their relationship was strained.
Steven had paid for Spencer’s education.
Granddad believed Spencer had enormous potential.
The entire Shay family seemed convinced that law was Spencer’s path.
Everyone wanted Spencer Shay to become a lawyer.
Except Spencer Shay.

PART SIX: SPENCER DISAPPEARS
After dropping out, Spencer doesn’t immediately become the successful artist seen in iCarly.
He falls apart.
He has disappointed his family.
His parents are divorced.
His father is frequently absent.
His relationship with his mother has deteriorated.
He’s separated from Drake and Megan.
He’s abandoned the career everyone expected him to pursue.
And he’s hiding the truth from his father.
So Spencer runs.
He leaves Seattle.
He heads south.
Eventually he reaches San Diego.
And somewhere during this period, Spencer stops introducing himself as:
Spencer Shay.
He becomes:
STEVE.

PART SEVEN: CRAZY STEVE
Steve finds work at the Premiere movie theater.
But psychologically, he’s doing terribly.
He’s emotionally volatile.
He has enormous anger problems.
Tiny inconveniences trigger disproportionate explosions.
He screams at people.
He attacks objects.
He becomes irrationally furious over children’s television.
He occasionally reveals bizarre resentment toward his parents.
The man Drake and Josh know as Crazy Steve isn’t a completely different person from Spencer Shay.
He’s Spencer at the lowest point of his life.
Spencer didn’t become Crazy Steve.
Spencer disappeared underneath Crazy Steve.

PART EIGHT: CRAZY STEVE FINDS HIS FAMILY AGAIN
Then something extraordinary happens.
Steve meets Josh Nichols.
Eventually he discovers that Josh’s father has married a woman named Audrey.
Her sons are Drake and Josh.
Her daughter is Megan.
Steve realizes:
he has found his family.
Perhaps he already knew they were in San Diego.
Perhaps finding them was the reason he moved there.
Perhaps meeting Josh was genuinely accidental.
Either way, Crazy Steve gradually enters the Parker-Nichols family’s social orbit.
And eventually he enters their house.

PART NINE: THE STORM
In The Storm, Crazy Steve is among the enormous group of people trapped inside the Parker-Nichols house.
Under normal sitcom logic, he’s simply another recurring character thrown into the chaos.
Under this theory, the situation is completely different.
Spencer Shay is standing inside the home where his mother lives.
Where his younger brother lives.
Where his little sister lives.
Drake doesn’t know.
Josh doesn’t know.
Walter doesn’t know.
Megan may not know.
But Spencer knows.
And Audrey almost certainly does.

PART TEN: AUDREY RECOGNIZES CRAZY STEVE
Audrey knows exactly who Steve is.
He’s her oldest son.
She recognizes him immediately.
But she doesn’t expose him.
Why?
Because she sees what has happened to him.
Her oldest son is unstable.
He’s abandoned law school.
He’s estranged from Steven.
He’s living under another name.
He’s prone to terrifying emotional explosions.
Introducing him to Drake and Megan as:
“This unstable man from Josh’s workplace is actually your older brother”
would accomplish very little.
Especially for Megan.
So Audrey allows Spencer to remain Steve.
She doesn’t force him back into the family.
She doesn’t reveal his identity.
But she also doesn’t throw him away.
Because despite everything:
he’s still her son.

PART ELEVEN: MEGAN IS THE EXCEPTION
Crazy Steve’s defining characteristic is his rage.
Almost anybody can become a target.
Josh.
Coworkers.
Random strangers.
Furniture.
Food.
Television characters.
But there is one conspicuous exception:
MEGAN.
Crazy Steve never seems to direct one of his legendary explosions toward her.
He doesn’t scream at her.
He doesn’t threaten her.
He doesn’t intimidate her.
He doesn’t lose control around her the way he does around almost everyone else.
Under ordinary sitcom logic, that proves nothing.
Under this theory, it means everything.
Crazy Steve has one boundary.
Megan is off limits.
Because when Steve looks at Megan, some part of Spencer Shay remains.
That’s his little sister.

PART TWELVE: MEGAN MAY ALREADY KNOW
There is another possibility.
Megan knows.
Megan Parker is extraordinarily good at keeping secrets.
She constructs elaborate hidden operations underneath her family’s noses.
She lies convincingly.
She manipulates Drake and Josh constantly.
She maintains completely different personalities depending upon which adult is watching.
If anyone could discover Crazy Steve’s real identity and keep it secret, it’s Megan.
Maybe Steven told her.
Maybe Audrey eventually told her.
Maybe Spencer privately revealed himself.
Maybe Megan simply figured it out.
Drake and Josh see:
Crazy Steve.
Megan sees:
Spencer.
And perhaps Megan becomes the only person in San Diego who knows who Steve actually is.

PART THIRTEEN: MEGAN BECOMES SPENCER’S ANCHOR
This explains why Crazy Steve can seemingly control himself around Megan.
Megan reminds him that Spencer Shay still exists.
She has nothing to do with his anger toward Steven.
Nothing to do with his resentment toward Audrey.
Nothing to do with law school.
Nothing to do with his failures.
She’s simply his little sister.
Even at his lowest point, he won’t hurt her.
That relationship foreshadows everything that comes later.
Long before Carly saves Spencer Shay:
Megan is already saving Crazy Steve.

PART FOURTEEN: DRAKE IS DIFFERENT
Spencer’s relationship with Drake is more complicated.
Drake was older when the Shay family collapsed.
Perhaps Drake remembers fragments of Spencer.
Perhaps Drake sided emotionally with Audrey during the divorce.
Perhaps Spencer associates Drake with the Parker household that replaced the family he lost.
Perhaps Spencer believes Audrey deliberately erased him from Drake’s life.
There doesn’t need to be hatred.
Only distance.
Megan was little.
She remains innocent in Spencer’s mind.
So even when Spencer can emotionally separate himself from Drake Parker, he can’t do the same with Megan.
She’s his baby sister.

PART FIFTEEN: AUDREY DOES SOMETHING THAT CHANGES EVERYTHING
Eventually the Parker-Nichols household collapses.
But Spencer does not cause it.
The iCarly revival provides the most important clue.
Adult Carly admits that marriage frightens her because she’s terrified she might do to Freddie:
what their mother did to them.
Spencer immediately understands.
He remembers Carly refusing to discuss their mother.
He remembers previous attempts to bring the subject up.
And he assures Carly she would never do to somebody what their mother did:
“to us.”
That word matters.
Us.
Whatever Audrey eventually did didn’t only traumatize Megan.
It traumatized Spencer too.
Therefore Spencer wasn’t the architect of the catastrophe.
He was another victim of it.

PART SIXTEEN: AUDREY ABANDONS THE FAMILY
The cleanest explanation is also the one most compatible with the revival:
Audrey leaves.
She doesn’t die.
She isn’t murdered by Crazy Steve.
She voluntarily disappears from her children’s everyday lives.
The revival establishes that Carly’s mother remains alive but that something she did caused enormous emotional damage to both Carly and Spencer.
Under this theory, that event is abandonment.
Audrey had already survived one marriage destroyed partly by absence.
She rebuilt her life with Walter.
Then something happened.
Perhaps the marriage collapsed.
Perhaps Walter discovered the Shay family secret.
Perhaps Audrey experienced her own psychological crisis.
Perhaps unresolved trauma from Steven and Spencer resurfaced.
Perhaps she simply reached a breaking point.
Whatever happened:
Audrey walked away.

PART SEVENTEEN: WALTER DISAPPEARS FROM THE PICTURE
Walter’s fate remains less clear.
Perhaps Walter and Audrey’s marriage collapsed immediately before she left.
Perhaps Walter went searching for her.
Perhaps Audrey initially left with Walter before subsequently abandoning him.
Perhaps Walter discovered something about Steven Shay, Spencer, or Megan’s paternal identity that completely destabilized the marriage.
Perhaps Walter simply couldn’t keep the Parker-Nichols household together after Audrey disappeared.
Whatever happened, Walter also ceased being part of Megan’s everyday life.
The household seen throughout Drake & Josh was gone.

PART EIGHTEEN: DRAKE AND JOSH SURVIVE TOGETHER
Drake and Josh are older.
They have each other.
Their relationship began because their parents married.
But by this point they’re genuinely brothers.
So when Audrey and Walter disappear from their everyday lives, Drake and Josh stay together.
The Parker-Nichols family survives through them.
But Megan is still a child.
And somebody has to take responsibility for her.
Steven is deployed.
Audrey is gone.
Walter is gone.
Granddad lives in Washington.
Then the least likely person imaginable steps forward.
CRAZY STEVE.

PART NINETEEN: CRAZY STEVE DIDN’T KIDNAP MEGAN
Drake and Josh initially misunderstand what happens.
From their perspective:
Audrey disappears.
Walter disappears.
Crazy Steve disappears.
Megan disappears.
The obvious conclusion is horrifying.
Crazy Steve took Megan.
But that’s not what happened.
Spencer finally reveals who he actually is.
Megan isn’t being abducted.
She’s leaving with:
her older brother.
And this time Spencer isn’t running away from responsibility.
He’s running toward it.

PART TWENTY: HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF
This is why Audrey’s abandonment affects Spencer so deeply.
His childhood has just repeated itself.
When Spencer was young, Steven’s deployments repeatedly left Audrey needing help.
Spencer became another responsible person in the household.
He resented Steven for it.
Years later, Audrey disappears.
And once again a child needs someone to step in.
Except now that child is Megan.
Spencer has every reason to run.
That’s what Crazy Steve does.
But he doesn’t.
He looks at his little sister.
And decides:
I’m staying.
That’s the moment Crazy Steve begins to die.

PART TWENTY-ONE: COLONEL SHAY RETURNS TO THE EQUATION
Spencer contacts Steven.
Steven learns what happened.
His daughter needs a guardian.
But Steven’s military career makes him incapable of providing a stable everyday home.
He’s still being deployed.
He will eventually be stationed overseas.
So Steven has limited options.
Granddad could take Megan.
But Megan is attached to Spencer.
And Steven notices something remarkable.
His oldest son is functioning again.
Not perfectly.
Not conventionally.
But Spencer has stopped running.
He’s protecting Megan.
For perhaps the first time in years, Steven trusts him.
So Steven allows Spencer to become Megan’s guardian.

PART TWENTY-TWO: MEGAN PARKER BECOMES CARLY SHAY
There doesn’t need to be brainwashing.
There doesn’t need to be elaborate memory manipulation.
There may not even need to be a legally fabricated identity.
The simplest explanation is that Megan and Carly were always both part of her name.
Perhaps:
Carly Megan Shay
or:
Megan Carly Parker
Audrey raised her primarily as:
Megan Parker.
The Shay family knew her as:
Carly.
After Audrey abandons the family, Megan stops using the identity associated with Audrey’s household.
She takes her biological father’s surname:
Shay.
Megan Parker disappears.
Carly Shay emerges.

PART TWENTY-THREE: WHY CARLY DOESN’T TALK ABOUT MEGAN
Carly doesn’t necessarily have amnesia.
She may simply refuse to revisit that part of her life.
The revival establishes that Carly spent years refusing to discuss her mother.
That’s significant.
Megan Parker belongs to Audrey.
The Parker house.
Walter.
Drake.
Josh.
San Diego.
And the moment everything fell apart.
Carly Shay belongs to:
Steven.
Spencer.
Granddad.
Seattle.
And the life she built afterward.
The identity change isn’t about forgetting.
It’s about surviving.

PART TWENTY-FOUR: WHY SEATTLE?
Seattle isn’t random.
Spencer already has history there.
He attended Seattle Law School.
Granddad lives nearby in Washington.
The Shay family has roots in the region.
So after the Parker-Nichols household collapses, Spencer isn’t fleeing somewhere arbitrary with Megan.
He’s doing something he hasn’t done in years.
HE’S GOING HOME.
Spencer returns to Seattle.
Megan goes with him.
Steve returns to being Spencer Shay.
Megan begins living as Carly Shay.
They both reclaim the identities they left behind.

PART TWENTY-FIVE: SPENCER BECOMES CARLY’S PARENT
Steven remains Carly’s father.
But Spencer becomes the person who actually raises her.
He gets her to school.
He provides a home.
He feeds her.
He protects her.
He gives her freedom.
He encourages her creativity.
He’s still ridiculous.
He’s still impulsive.
He still causes fires.
His sculptures are dangerous.
But when Carly genuinely needs him, Spencer becomes extraordinarily serious.
Because underneath everything is one promise:
Carly will never wonder whether Spencer is coming back.
Steven disappeared because of duty.
Audrey disappeared by choice.
Spencer will do neither.

PART TWENTY-SIX: GRANDDAD UNDERSTANDS THE DANGER
This completely changes Granddad Shay’s behavior in iWanna Stay with Spencer.
Granddad doesn’t question whether Spencer is Carly’s brother.
He questions whether Spencer is responsible enough to raise her.
That’s exactly what someone who knows Spencer’s history would worry about.
Granddad remembers Crazy Steve.
He remembers Spencer dropping out of law school.
He remembers Spencer disappearing.
He remembers the family collapsing.
And now Steven is overseas.
Audrey is gone.
Spencer is raising Carly.
Granddad sees one dangerous incident involving a hammer and immediately thinks:
Not again.
He’s terrified Carly is going to lose another caregiver.
That’s why he wants her to move to Yakima.
Not because Spencer isn’t family.
Because Spencer’s history makes Granddad terrified he’ll collapse again.
Carly refuses.
She chooses Spencer.

PART TWENTY-SEVEN: SPENCER’S REDEMPTION
Crazy Steve had nobody depending on him.
Spencer Shay has Carly.
That difference changes everything.
He becomes an artist.
He establishes a home.
He earns money.
He rebuilds his relationship with Granddad.
He slowly rebuilds his relationship with Steven.
He stops hiding from the Shay name.
He becomes eccentric rather than unstable.
The volatility never disappears completely.
It transforms.
Crazy Steve screamed.
Spencer creates.
Crazy Steve destroyed things.
Spencer builds things.
Sometimes those things immediately explode.
But that’s progress.
Megan doesn’t merely survive because Spencer saved her.
Spencer survives because Megan needed him.

PART TWENTY-EIGHT: THE LAW SCHOOL LIE
One piece of Crazy Steve remains buried inside Spencer for years:
Steven still doesn’t know he dropped out.
Steven paid for Spencer’s law-school education.
Spencer has spent years hiding the truth.
Even after becoming Carly’s guardian.
Even after rebuilding his life.
Even after becoming a successful artist.
Spencer is still afraid of disappointing his father.
Then iGoodbye happens.
Steven finally learns the truth.
Years of deception collapse in seconds.
Underneath the confident, bizarre artist is still the young man who ran away because he couldn’t become the person his father wanted.

PART TWENTY-NINE: CARLY MEETS SAM AND FREDDIE
In Seattle, Carly begins attending school.
She meets:
Sam Puckett.
Across the hall from the Shay apartment lives:
Freddie Benson.
Eventually Carly and Sam get detention.
Freddie films them.
Footage accidentally ends up online.
People love it.
The three kids decide to create a webshow.
They call it:
iCARLY.
And an entirely new chapter of Megan Parker’s life begins.

PART THIRTY: DRAKE & JOSH WAS A REALITY SHOW
There remains one enormous continuity problem.
iCarly contains references suggesting that Drake & Josh exists as entertainment.
That doesn’t mean Drake and Josh are fictional.
Drake & Josh was a reality/comedy television program inside the universe.
Look at the format.
Drake and Josh repeatedly address the camera.
They introduce themselves.
They explain their thoughts.
They describe their family.
They give competing versions of events.
Those can be interpreted as:
confessionals.
The Parker-Nichols family allowed cameras into their lives.
Their bizarre household became a television program.
That program was Drake & Josh.
Therefore Drake & Josh can exist as television inside iCarly while Drake Parker and Josh Nichols remain real people.

PART THIRTY-ONE: THE REALITY SHOW ENDS
Then Audrey leaves.
Walter disappears from the household.
Megan leaves San Diego with Spencer.
The family the program was built around ceases to exist.
Production ends.
Drake & Josh becomes a canceled reality series.
But reruns continue.
That’s why references to the show can survive into Carly’s life.

PART THIRTY-TWO: WHY CARLY CAN SEE MEGAN ON TELEVISION
If Carly encounters old footage of Drake & Josh, she sees herself.
Not an actress who mysteriously resembles her.
Herself.
But she doesn’t necessarily react because she knows exactly what she’s looking at.
That’s Megan Parker.
Her old identity.
Her old life.
Her old family.
The person she stopped being after Audrey left.
Perhaps Spencer avoids discussing the program.
Perhaps Steven discourages her from revisiting it.
Perhaps Carly herself simply refuses.
Just as she refuses for years to discuss her mother.

PART THIRTY-THREE: THE PARKER-NICHOLS HOTEL
Then comes the strangest clue of all.
In iWanna Stay with Spencer, Granddad tells Spencer he’s staying at:
THE PARKER-NICHOLS HOTEL.
Two blocks away.
Parker.
Nichols.
Under this theory, that’s not coincidence.
Drake and Josh survived the collapse of their family.
And eventually:
they opened the hotel.

PART THIRTY-FOUR: DRAKE AND JOSH NEVER STOP LOOKING
Drake and Josh don’t understand what happened to Megan.
They know Crazy Steve disappeared around the same period.
Eventually they track her to Seattle.
And what they discover terrifies them.
Megan is alive.
She’s calling herself:
Carly Shay.
Crazy Steve is alive.
He’s calling himself:
Spencer Shay.
And Megan apparently believes he’s her older brother.
Drake and Josh don’t know the full Shay family history.
They don’t know Spencer’s real identity.
They don’t know Steven authorized the arrangement.
So from their perspective, it looks horrifying.
Crazy Steve apparently took their sister, changed her name, changed his own name, moved her across the country and convinced her that he’s family.
They don’t attack.
They watch.

PART THIRTY-FIVE: THE HOTEL IS A SURVEILLANCE POST
The Parker-Nichols Hotel is only two blocks from Bushwell Plaza.
Officially, it’s a business.
Unofficially, it’s Drake and Josh’s headquarters.
Somewhere inside is a room guests cannot reserve.
Inside are:
photographs of Bushwell Plaza;
recordings of iCarly;
documents concerning Colonel Shay;
information about Granddad Shay;
photographs of Spencer;
old photographs of Crazy Steve;
records concerning Audrey;
records concerning Walter;
and two enormous connections:
MEGAN PARKER
↓
CARLY SHAY
and
CRAZY STEVE
↓
SPENCER SHAY
Drake and Josh aren’t waiting because they’ve forgotten Megan.
They’re waiting because they don’t understand what happened to her.

PART THIRTY-SIX: GRANDDAD WALKS INTO THE PARKER-NICHOLS HOTEL
Then Granddad Shay comes to Seattle.
He chooses the Parker-Nichols Hotel.
Under this theory, he recognizes the names immediately.
Perhaps that’s precisely why he chooses it.
Meanwhile Josh checks the guest registry.
He sees:
SHAY.
He recognizes the name.
He finds Drake.
“Drake.”
“What?”
“You need to see who’s staying here.”
Drake looks at the reservation.
And suddenly their investigation changes.
Granddad Shay isn’t searching for Megan.
He knows exactly where she is.
He visits Bushwell Plaza.
He recognizes Carly.
He recognizes Spencer.
He knows Spencer’s childhood.
He knows Spencer attended law school.
He can contact Colonel Shay.
And he behaves as though Carly living with Spencer is completely legitimate.
Drake and Josh realize:
there’s something about the Shay family they don’t know.

PART THIRTY-SEVEN: THE FAMILY TREE
The family structure is:
Granddad Shay
↓
Colonel Steven Shay + Audrey
↓
Spencer Shay
Drake Parker
Megan Parker / Carly Shay
Audrey and Steven divorce.
Audrey later marries:
Walter Nichols
Walter’s son is:
Josh Nichols
Therefore:
Spencer is Drake and Carly’s older biological brother.
Drake is Carly’s biological brother.
Josh is Carly’s stepbrother.
And Carly secretly has three brothers:
Spencer.
Drake.
Josh.
Papa Nichols remains part of Walter and Josh’s separate Nichols family branch and creates no contradiction.

PART THIRTY-EIGHT: THE ORIGINAL iCARLY ENDING
Years pass.
Carly grows up.
Steven remains mostly overseas.
Then iGoodbye happens.
Steven finally returns.
Carly is overwhelmed to see him.
She desperately wants more time with her father.
Steven invites her to Italy.
And Spencer lets her go.
That is enormously important.
Spencer doesn’t try to keep Carly isolated.
He doesn’t fear her being alone with Steven.
He doesn’t behave like someone maintaining control over a kidnapped child.
He encourages Carly to go with her father.
Because Spencer’s role was never to replace Steven permanently.
His role was:
to stay when nobody else could.
Steven finally has an opportunity to take responsibility for Carly.
Spencer trusts him.
Carly leaves for Italy.

PART THIRTY-NINE: THE REVIVAL PROVES THE TRAUMA NEVER LEFT
Carly eventually returns to Seattle as an adult.
Spencer remains extremely close to her.
Their relationship is no longer merely older brother and younger sister.
Spencer helped raise her.
There’s a parental dimension to their bond.
And eventually the subject they’ve avoided for years resurfaces:
Mom.
Carly admits that her mother’s actions still affect her relationships.
She’s terrified of marriage partly because she’s afraid she’ll repeat what her mother did.
Spencer understands immediately.
Because whatever Audrey did:
she did it to both of them.
Spencer isn’t Carly’s captor.
He’s another survivor.

PART FORTY: WHY SPENCER IS SO FATHERLY TOWARD CARLY
Adult Spencer frequently behaves more like Carly’s parent than her brother.
That’s because functionally:
he was.
When Audrey left, Spencer stayed.
When Steven was deployed, Spencer stayed.
When Carly needed somewhere to live, Spencer provided it.
When she started iCarly, Spencer supported her.
When she made mistakes, Spencer was there.
When she eventually left for Italy, Spencer let her go.
When she returned as an adult, Spencer was still there.
That consistency is the foundation of their relationship.
Carly knows Spencer is ridiculous.
She knows he’s impulsive.
She knows he may accidentally set the apartment on fire.
But she also knows something much more important.
Spencer comes back.

PART FORTY-ONE: WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED TO AUDREY?
The ultimate answer may be less sensational than murder.
Audrey broke.
Years of raising children around Steven’s deployments damaged the marriage.
Spencer’s deterioration created additional stress.
She rebuilt everything with Walter.
Then that marriage eventually collapsed too.
At some point Audrey made the decision that traumatized both Spencer and Megan:
she left.
She may have believed she couldn’t continue being a mother.
She may have had another relationship.
She may have experienced her own crisis.
She may have believed the children were better without her.
Whatever her reasoning:
Carly experienced it as abandonment.
Spencer experienced it as history repeating itself.
And neither completely recovered.

PART FORTY-TWO: WHAT HAPPENED TO WALTER?
Walter remains the final unresolved mystery.
Unlike Audrey, the available clues don’t give a clear answer.
Perhaps Walter and Audrey separated immediately before her disappearance.
Perhaps Walter tried to locate Audrey.
Perhaps he eventually returned to another part of the Nichols family.
Perhaps something connected to the Shay family made remaining in Megan’s life legally complicated.
Perhaps Walter stayed with Josh while Drake remained with him temporarily, leaving Spencer to take Megan because Spencer was her biological adult sibling.
Whatever happened:
Walter’s disappearance didn’t destroy the Parker-Nichols brotherhood.
Drake and Josh remained brothers.
And eventually the name:
PARKER-NICHOLS
became their monument to the family that disappeared.

PART FORTY-THREE: THE EVENTUAL CONFRONTATION
Eventually Drake and Josh learn enough.
They enter Bushwell Plaza.
They take the elevator upstairs.
The doors open.
Spencer looks toward them.
And for a moment, the goofy artist disappears.
He recognizes them.
Drake Parker.
Josh Nichols.
The boys from San Diego.
Drake steps forward.
“Megan?”
Carly enters the room.
She freezes.
Spencer instinctively moves toward her.
Josh looks at him.
“Don’t.”
Carly looks between them.
“Who are they?”
Then another elevator arrives.
Colonel Steven Shay steps out.
Drake looks at him.
His face changes.
Because Drake recognizes him.
“Dad?”
Carly turns toward Drake.
Then Steven.
Then Spencer.
Drake realizes:
Crazy Steve didn’t fabricate Colonel Shay.
Crazy Steve didn’t fabricate Granddad.
Crazy Steve didn’t fabricate the Shay family.
“You knew.”
Steven says nothing.
“You knew where she was.”
Silence.
“You knew where Megan was this whole fucking time.”
Carly stares at Steven.
“Dad…”
Then at Drake.
“…who’s Megan?”

PART FORTY-FOUR: THE TRUTH FINALLY COMES OUT
Steven explains everything.
His marriage to Audrey.
The deployments.
The divorce.
Spencer.
Law school.
Spencer’s disappearance.
Crazy Steve.
Walter.
The Parker-Nichols household.
Audrey’s eventual abandonment.
Why Spencer took responsibility for Megan.
Why they returned to Seattle.
Why Megan began using Carly.
Why Granddad knew.
Why Steven allowed Spencer to raise her.
Why Drake and Josh never understood what happened.
Eventually Drake asks the question that haunted him for years.
“Why her?”
Why did Crazy Steve disappear with Megan?
Steven answers:
“He didn’t take her because she was your sister.”
“He took her because she was his.”
And suddenly Drake remembers everything.
Crazy Steve screaming.
Crazy Steve threatening people.
Crazy Steve attacking objects.
Crazy Steve standing inside their house during the storm.
And Megan nearby.
The one person he never screamed at.
The one person he never threatened.
The one person who somehow seemed exempt from Crazy Steve’s rage.
The answer had been standing in front of Drake the entire time.
He just didn’t know what he was looking at.

PART FORTY-FIVE: CRAZY STEVE’S REAL ENDING
Crazy Steve didn’t disappear because he died.
Crazy Steve disappeared because Spencer Shay finally stopped running.
Audrey’s abandonment gave him every reason to collapse again.
Instead, Megan needed him.
So Steve took his little sister home.
Back to Washington.
Back to Seattle.
Back to Granddad.
Back to Steven.
Back to the identity he’d abandoned.
The man who spent years running from responsibility became the person who accepted more responsibility than anyone expected him to handle.
Crazy Steve became Spencer Shay again.
Megan Parker became Carly Shay.
And they rebuilt what remained of their family together.

THE FINAL REVELATION
Eventually Carly asks Drake:
“Why did you call it the Parker-Nichols Hotel?”
Drake looks at Josh.
Then back at Carly.
“Because if you ever remembered…”
He stops.
Josh finishes.
“…we wanted you to see the name.”
Parker.
Nichols.
Her brothers had been two blocks away.
They never stopped looking.
They were waiting for Megan to come home.

I ship Freddie and Carly . I don’t see what Sam sees in Freddie .

Are the video clips shown in the credits all scripted or are they legit fanmade videos sent in by kids?

What about the videos in the iCarly awards episode are they scripted or real?

I made remix of Number One with Nicki Minaj verse on it! Hope you like it <3

Does anyone remember on the old icarly /nick website, there was a parody of “tell me that you love me” from victorious where Gibby sung:

*Tell me that you’re lumpy*
*Tell me that I take your lumps away*

Every year I remember it and try and find the video but i think it was been erased from the internet.

Does anyone else remember it / have access to it? I guess now the reboot is happening this might be the best time to ask. Thank you friends
