Nickelodeon’s groundbreaking hit series stars Miranda Cosgrove as Carly, the host of an incredibly popular teen webcast. iCarly ranks as television’s number-one program with kids 2-11 and is the first scripted series to incorporate kid-created original content.
I remember when I was a kid watching Nickelodeon. I am pleased that not only do they entertain my youngest child but still have great shows for tweens. My 9 year old was already a fan of iCarly before we received the iCarly: iSaved Your Life DVD, but this was my first experience watching it. For some reason these kids don’t have very much adult supervision which lets them get into all sorts of trouble. Sam is my favorite character who is tough and definitely more boy then even Freddie. The one Mom you do see is Freddie’s in the episode iMove Out. While I don’t agree with the message this show sends kids with being fresh with his parent it is funny to watch what his overbearing mother puts him through.
As long as your kids know the difference between right and wrong this is a hilarious show. Carly, Sam, Freddie, and Spencer have so much fun with all their crazy ideas and on all their webisodes of iCarly!
iCarly: iSaved Your Life Episode Descriptions:
iSaved Your Life
Freddie is injured when he saves Carly from a runaway taco truck. After Freddie’s daring rescue, Carly starts to see Freddie in a different light. Sam tries to warn him that Carly’s feelings are based on guilt and not true love; however, Freddie is happy that the girl of his dreams is finally his girlfriend. Sam is involved in her own risky mission – competing against Spencer in a paintball game called Assassin. Danger lurks around every corner and only one person can be left standing… paint-free.
iQuit iCarly
The iCarly gang invites two up-and-coming wacky web comedians, Fleck and Dave, to be guests on their show. When Carly and Sam learn that the guys are entering a web contest for a cash prize, they volunteer to help create an awesome video. Unfortunately, Fleck and Dave have a big blowout which results in Carly and Sam taking sides and putting their own friendship to the test. Their rift makes it increasingly difficult for them to continue doing the web show, leaving Freddie and the rest of their fans to wonder if this is the end of iCarly. Meanwhile, Spencer’s obsession to win a boat pays off and he finds himself the owner of a new speedboat. However, without a place to dock his prize, Spencer is left to captain the boat in the parking lot, much to the dismay of one of his neighbors, who plays for his college’s baseball team – the Pirates.
Carly discovers that Sam is actually afraid of something – visiting the dentist. So Carly accompanies Sam to her appointment, and while Sam is under the influence of laughing gas, she accidentally reveals to Carly that she and Freddie shared a secret kiss. Carly is crushed that her best friends have been keeping secrets from her and finally decides to confront them about why they never told her.
iTwins
Sam’s twin sister, Melanie, is visiting from boarding school. While they may look alike, they are completely opposite in nature – Melanie likes school, wearing dresses and being polite to people. Freddie believes that Melanie is really Sam in disguise so he asks her out on a date. Even after she says yes, he is still unconvinced that Sam has a twin. Spencer’s nemesis Chuck is back – as a student of Carly’s. When Carly agrees to tutor Chuck, Spencer sets out to convince her of Chuck’s evil ways.
iMove Out
First, Freddie’s mom embarrasses him on iCarly by berating him for not eating all of his vegetables, then she comes to school and shows his baby pictures to the other students. Freddie has decided he is tired of his mom treating him like a baby so he moves out. Even though his new pad is less than desirable, Freddie is hoping to prove to his mom that he is a man now. Carly, Sam and Freddie start up a successful pet photography business but quickly find themselves in a feud with a rival pet photo studio.
