time to state the facts that some people are ignoring. (i dontwanna talk about hannah montana because i can care less talking about it. plus, wizards is way better than hannah montana).
first of all, not everyone is a catholic and holds those morals of taking the name god in vain... imyself am a buddhist and i could care less if others say that. not everyone holds that, and although christianity is the biggest religion many of the sects inside of it dont believe in that. the audience of nickelodeon does not just offer
and adults do matter in life, and family for that matter. take mrs benson for example. no matter how psycho she gets with cleaning products, freddie obviously still respects and loves his mom no matter how crazy he and everyone else thinks she is. drake and josh had a family and there were a lot of family episodes within the series. drake's mom has helped josh get with girls, and walter provides comedic support and has taught the two of them to drive and act as a mediator between fights. in ned's declassified, two of the main characters are the vice principal and gordy, and mr.sweeney has taught numerous lessons on the show regarding taking notes and projects, no matter how much he scares ned. obviously adults are valued, and family in general. let's also remember that one episode oficarly had to do with carly and spencer's relationship as brother and siste rbecause carly was going to move. BOTH disney and nickelodeon are equal to giving morals once in a while in their shows.
another thing is that icarly actually assimulates to the current culture, and is therefore adaptable to children today and easy for them to like. for example the use of the word "nub", which derives from "noob". and currently, true jackson takes place in a fashion company which many people are very interested in. and to reiterate icarly317's point, notice that icarly is shown on "TEENNICK". icarly falls under the drake and josh, zoey 101, ned's declassified, and more category in which along with the funny, it goes into mature topics. as much as i love the wizards, lets face it: the show is about wizards. nickelodeon has evident mature topics they go into, including relationships, friendships, breaking hearts, even more. many disney channels don't even have good continuity with relationships (what happened to dean and alex? i loved them together). and to concur with icarly317, while all of disney's shows seem to more accomodate to ages 15 and below, Teennick obviously aims and a TEEN audience, so they use mature humor and jokes that they would get. if kids watch icarly, that is their problem and NOT mine, but as a teenager i find the show appropriate and fun to watch.
NOW that that is said, i hope this petty argument ends and we can finally talk about the episode, which was by far the funniest episode of the season. i didnt even realize it was a rip on disney until i read this forum. the frozen head was really funny, and its good to see a spencer and freddie episode, which is rare. it was overall funny, and the sock with butter thing was hilarious.
