I wasn't expecting them to put any characters from Drake and Josh.

Good ep ^^

Sorry I missed that chat thing, my mom was Christmas shopping online on my computer. So here's a few of my scattered thoughts:

The third Gibby/Guppy/Grandpa plot was irrelevant. I used to adore Guppy and now he's getting too repetitive. Gibby was too level-headed so he wasn't all that funny or unique like usual. The grandfather was alright...but going through a drive thru and being late? Well okay.

The second plot between Spencer(Arutha?) and Aspartamay was hilarious and just epic. But there wasn't much too it, it was just arguing/fighting that made you laugh. =p Still I don't mind.

I'm glad CarlyxAdam got together, but I just think they're cute. There wasn't much development between them, but there could be. I guess he isn't in any future episodes though, so it didn't matter. Still felt bad that the psycho Creddie fans attacked him. o_0

I didn't like any of the regulars at all that much. The only one I liked was Spencer. Everybody else wasn't all that funny, it was the guest stars that made the show. I'm surprised that Sam was so boring. All she did was talk about her Fat Shake. To whoever questioned Sam being too mean, I disagree. I don't think she realized that she would have ruined Carly and Adam's relationship so badly until Freddie and Carly mentioned it. She cares about Carly so she did try to fix her mistake when she realized she was hurting her. Tying up Adam is just a "Sam" thing to do. Freddie's sandpaper rant wasn't really funny, the only part I liked about Freddie was his scene with Spencer.

I liked the ending. I liked how the twist was that there wasn't really a twist, if ya know what I mean. It was a little more direct than I thought though. It seemed like Dan took his comment off of his blog and stuck it in the script. So...this is his way to tell all of us to shut up? Yeah nice try. Crazy shippers can't stop. Lol I can't either.

I missed a few parts of the episode, but I seened a good chunk of it. It was alright. The fan war with the trio was well a littlefunny, but what about the twist? No twist? God, that sucks. Gibby/Guppy was, well....................completely forgetable, extremely worthless, and overall, medicore.

Spencer/Jack Black Fan war - Good, but repetive. Overall, ISYL, iPsyco, iDo, and iQuit iCarly were all better specials than this.

This episode went exactly how I thought it would go, and I actually laughed out loud in some parts, I haven't done that in an episode of iCarly since iPsycho, so I think that this was a very successful episode. The main plot was pretty entertaining for me, as a non-shipper/former moderate Sam/Freddie shipper who early in these forums got in debates over couple interaction, I thought they did a hilarious job of portraying the insanity of the fans online, because really, they never do listen, and the message was great, and exactly what the show needed. I wish they did more with Carly/Adam and I wish there actually was a surprise ending, but oh well, just small things.

Spencer/Jack Black subplot was hilarious, I found myself going "haha what??" so much it killed me. The nerd war was really well done, with clever quips and Jack Black singing, and face it, every time Jack Black sings it is awesome.

I really think Gibby should go back to being a supporting character who randomly shows up, his plots are always stupid and pointless, they never add anything to the script. He was much funnier when he came in as a butt of a joke or with some ridiculous non sequitur.

@Ulrich, sorry I couldnt make your livestream thing. I got home halfway through and was too tired to watch it then

Okay lemme start off with the Gibby/Guppy/Grandpa thing. After the first part of it I was already annoyed and fast forwarded it (DVR FTW!!) It was pointless, Guppy was annoying, the grandpa had no point, and Gibby just isnt Gibby anymore

Next up is Spencer vs Jack Black!! As a former World of Warcraft player myself (if you guys havent figured this out yet, I'm a nerd, deal with it) I couldnt help but laugh. I was never a hardcore player of it, but I've seen hardcore players. Like when I first started out playing it, I remember asking people what ___ is or how to do ___ and they'd do exactly what Freddie and Spencer did in the beginning, except over ingame texts.

Also their chants were hilarious, and so were the people in the background. It was epic. Epic win. OH! and Remember during one of the transition scenes when you see like a big room and you see alleys and a signs that said 700. I think that was a shot from the Dealers Room at ComicCon which I went to, and THERE WAS NO ROOM TO BREATHE IN THERE!!! :O Or it couldve been from some other convention, but it looked like the one from comiccon.

Now for the main plot!! First off, it was nice seeing Stacey, Eric, Craig and Gavin again. And the continuity with Stacey's lisp thing. I also liked the Adu guy. xD

First off the main characters had no funny lines in my opinion. I was confused by the sandpaper thing, and the sailor hat thing was cute. The Fatshake was too...expected and Carly was just not funny. And her speech was corny. Hey Dan, if you didnt want iCarly to be about shipping and only about comedy, then why didja make episodes like iKiss, iSYL, iSP, and iTTK and not resolve them? You dug the hole so deal with it (I had a good metaphor for here, but its hard to explain?)

The crazy shippers did make me literally laugh out loud though. You just cant stop them. It also made me giggle about how Dan made the Creddiers seem a bit more crazy with the PearPad and attacking Adam (who is gorgeous btw) and such. The Seddiers just went along with the riots and that one guy who randomly screamed out SEDDIE!!! Okay...THAT is true. Seddiers DO sometimes only posts SEDDIE!!!!!! most of the time. But not all fans are crazy like that, like someone said above, if we actually did all go into a conference room it wouldve been calm.

Overall...hmmm 7 or 8/10??

Overall I am pretty happy with this episode. Sure the bantering got a little old at times, but for the most part I was entertained. I feel like there was a point where every single plot consisted of nothing but people fighting/arguing so I didn't like that very much. And the Gibby plot was funny at first but I got bored of it pretty quick to the point where I couldn't wait for it to be over. Also, I must agree that the main characters (aside from Spencer) were all pretty boring. I mean I do like when Carly gets sassy sometimes, but lately she has been coming off as nasty and its kind of annoying. However I did enjoy her "I told you it was diet, now go get a sponge" line.

Now for what I did like. Anything involving Spencer in the entire episode was EPIC. Though I may be bias on account of I LOVE JERRY! But I think most people will agree with me that his part with Jack Black was the best part of the episode. I also loved the way they portrayed the crazy shippers because it was pretty much dead on! When that one guy said "SEDDIE FTW!" I almost died because I have mentioned before how almost all Seddie fans feel the need to write FTW after anything they say about their ship. But to be I also though the Creddie shoulder touching picture was great as well. Since I ship neither I loved the mocking of the superfans. And who can forget the massive amounts of innuendos in this episode. That was probably my favorite! Oh Spencer, you and your "long staff" (I wanted to say so many dirty things about that but decided not to be a creep)!
