I just watched the episode, but my DVR cut off the last minute or so. Anyone have a download link?

Was anyone else surprised about Freddy holding the knife? That seemed kind of intense for a kid show lol

and Sam running a sweat shop seemed pretty intense also lol

I missed the iDo promo. Overall, I liked the episode. I like all of the episodes. I guess I find stuff funny that other people do.

I liked the Creddie stuff... and I'm probably going to put that hot girl above Sasha as 'hottest chick Spencer has made out with'. Sam starting a sweatshop was funny to start with, and got less so the more 'evil' she acted.

It was so predictable as well.

As soon as Gibby said the bus driver knew the language I knew the guy would end up with the Girl. It wasn't even especially funny.

The stuff with the kids.. same thing.

Some people have criticised the show for always having the trio winning, but this was such an obvious 'fail' for the iCarly crew that it wasn't a shock.

Sam's kids stop working. Carly and Freddie's take the money and run. By the way, just because it's lampshaded by Carly saying "We shouldn't have given them the money" it's still bad writing.

The kids take over the business for themselves.

Then the trio walk out and the show ends.

It was just another of those lame endings where the story unfolds predictably, with no real climax... it just happens.

I missed it because I live in Canada and the megavideo link isn't on iicarlyy yet. Should I also just not bother watching it?

I think I will, just once because I'm not gonna miss one episode of iCarly. I'll judge it for myself. But if I don't like it, then, well, I won't watch it again.

I'd recommend skipping it, yeah. Unless you like watching children being treated like factory workers and Sam crossing what's called a Moral Event Horizon.

Really, the only good thing you missed was the Megamind trailer But I'm pretty sure someone will upload that seperately on youtube by the time you read this post.

I just hope iDo is a lot better in story quality.

EDIT: Here's the Megamind link.

To everybody questioning whether to watch it, yes you should watch it. Everybody thinks differently and I can see how people could either love it or hate it. The knife scene reminded me of how Drake wanted to stab Josh's grandmother. I didn't take it on a serious level.

I guess its time for me to be blunt again. Here goes...how can you possibly think that Sam was too evil in this episode? Her character throughout the entire series has been building up to become this mean and tough, so this is EXACTLY how I would see Sam doing something like this. If you think that doing something like forcing children to work under those conditions is out of Sam's character, I think you must be crazy. I admit, it wasn't the best episode out there, but it was far from being the worst episode either. Also because I'm working on a project on working conditions for children in my history class at school, this episode couldn't have come at a better time.

I thought it was okay! It had redeeming qualities for sure. Anyway, I think Dan knew it wasn't the best episode (they can't all be fantastic) I feel like it's why that Seddie spanking moment is in there. It just seemed so forced with no real reason. Cause he asked if she knocked off a truck, like thats so crazy, lol. Ya know, other than being upset about Spencer's little date and taking it out on him **cough** But it was just weird and pointless, other than he knew it would make the Seddie's watch regardless. *shrug* who knows, but I didn't mind the ep at all.

My complaint is about Gibby actually :/ I've always loved Gibby, but now he's an official cast member, it feels like Dan's forcing him into plots he doesn't belong. And like they haven't completely fleshed out his character since it's changed sooooo drastically since the first season. Like make him a full member and stuff, but don't force him into the plot. Even on WOWP full cast has missed entire episodes numerous times except Selena and David, because the show is really about Justin/Alex. The show is really about Carly/Sam/Freddie, though Spencer is also essential just not always to the main...but Gibby....Sometimes he can just be gone ya know? lol Also he's turned very jerkish and superior. Fame from his webfame??? LOL, could be possible i guess. Anyway, thats it

What I saw of the iDo promo was funny also "Its like two round apples!!!" hehehe

Many people have different opinions on stuff. Overall, it was good comedy. Sam was mean, but that's how she is. She's a mean person, who can be nice when you get to know her. Those kids don't know her. She doesn't know them. Sam only has one thing on her mind. Money. She's pretty greedy. She wanted to make a lot of t-shirts very quickly so she could more cash. Remember iOwe You?

I'll be completely honest...I didn't read anything you guys have discussed. I just wanted to say something on this topic before I forgot.

One thing in this episode that made me say, "Owned!" at first was when the one little girl stood up to Sam and told her that she promised them all food. I loved that. Then, I watched the scene with Carly and Freddie and was disappointed in them lol (in a good way). Also, it made me laugh when the one kid was sleeping on the table. And one thing I felt was really unnecessary was the part where Freddie was trying to explain how to split the kids up and Sam slapped him the first time. I didn't think that because of her attitude being overly-done or anything but because if you think about it, he got out the same thing he would've whether he was slapped by Sam or not. Like, they all acted completely unphased by it. Opinions may very.

Ok, just re-watched this episode on tv today..and it was actually alot better this time around! The first half was actually pretty good..still unsure about the 2nd half. But it wasn't unbearable anymore. It's weird..I don't seem to like the new episodes when they first premiere..but when I go and watch them again, they're really enjoyable. I don't get it. Anyone else experience this??

^^^ I do experience that. I guess its just because you're excited that its a new episode and you watch it just for the sake of watching, but then re-watching it a second time is different because you can spot out what you want to see again and what you thought was funny. Kinda hard to explain...
