I just started a Season 6 page on Wikipedia and added "iGot Jungle Worms" on it along with some season info and stuff. I also came across something from memory regarding "Season 3". Remember when I was sharing how Kevin and Alec were saying that a new opening credits don't indicate a new season? Well, here's a Fun Fact blog entry of Dan's from the day "iLost My Mind" aired that he posted hours before the episode actually aired discussing spoilers and stuff: http://danwarp.blogspot.com/2011/08/fun-facts-ilost-my-mind.html. In the "New Opening Credits" column, he clearly states that each time there's a new season, there's a new opening credits. I just shared this on the Talk Page.
So there you have it, the opening credits did indicate a new season. But we of course already knew that the fact that it was made in the first place. As I stated, I don't see why Dan would want to mislead viewers into thinking it was a new season if it wasn't authorized to be so. Plus, Dan even stated himself that the network was calling these remaining Season 2 production episodes the "third season" anyway, Nathan before hand talked about it, the Nick press themselves referenced it in 2011, and so then Miranda eight months later in 2012. Luckily I haven't seen either Kevin or Alec in a couple days now. It's just been Aussie and I lately and he didn't mention anything on behalf of the opening credits. He just blew over all my evidence on behalf of sources saying a fifth season was being made and airing this year and that a production labeled season is how the airing season should be labeled. So he's just ignoring all the evidence indicating a broadcast split from Dan, the cast members, and trying to get around the Nick press release due to the fact it didn't list all those Season 2 production episodes belonging in which broadcast season. Seriously? Which one has the Season 2 intro or the "Season 3" one? I pointed that out to him.
He also wanted sources that indicated "iThink They Kissed" was the Season 3 premiere. We really don't need that at all due to the new opening intro it had. But I provided a blog entry source from October 2009 where Dan talks about that episode being the premiere when he responds to a user regarding the ratings between the Season 3 premiere of "iCarly" with the Season 3 premiere of "Wizards of Waverly Place": http://danwarp.blogspot.com/2009/10/ratings-vs-ratings.html. I'm currently waiting for his response regarding the 2011 blog entry on "iLost My Mind" regarding Dan only making a new opening when there's a new season.
