Legit! 😫

Me reading another person's writing: Oh they missed a period there, no worries mistakes happen :) Three adjectives in a sentence? Adverbs for days? No worries I love descriptions and this story is fire.

Me seeing the same thing in my work: Wow am I illiterate? Am I actually ok? Who the actual fuck told me I can write so I can go and curse their entire family for the time it took for me to carefully craft this GARBAGE.

me, bitter and old, sitting in a rocking chair, sipping on a glass of vodka: seddie deserved better

[supergirl3721]

my spirit animal.

Just realized how much Sam reminds me of Duncan……….

[supergirl3721]

if sam puckett and jade west got into a fight, sam would have beat her ass. all jade did was talk and be creepy, sam actually threw hands.

Arrghhh! Same.

The way my iCarly and Seddie obsession was revived a couple months ago and in my mind I was fantasizing about an adult revival series.

I won... But at what cost? 😭

Still praying Paramount figures out a solution and agrees to whatever terms Jennette sets if she decides to come back at all? (if she plans on coming back conditionally with demands in place to keep her health intact even then I'd be happy and Paramount and the rest of the cast BETTER MAKE SURE she gets all the comfort and ease regarding her mental health that she needs).

But if she doesn't come back, I'm devastated. I'll watch it, of course i will. At least to try it out...

But for me the show was central to Sam. Sam and Carly's friendship is one of the healthiest female friendships I've ever seen portrayed and are literally my favorite one ever. I've been a Seddie shipper since I first watched the show years ago. Spencer being Sam's older brother figure always made me happy like no other. In simple terms: her character was central for me on the show. Her relationships with the others are what kept me invested and watching. She is such an ESSENTIAL part of the show's dynamic without which the others don't connect as seamlessly.

I'm apprehensive because if you take Sam out of the equation... Then Carly and Freddie are quite bland. I dont mean this in a bad way. I love Carly and Freddie. But Sam is the middle ground between them. She's the spark of chaos compared to Freddie's rigidness but opposes Carly's more emotional side as well and is more pragmatic when Carly gets illogical and vice versa. She's not as girly as Carly either but definitely still has it in her so she balances Carly out but is enough tomboy to get along with Freddie even if it's not with his tech stuff. They have their own little games and tug of war which works for them but not with Carly. Without Sam, Carly and Freddie have very little in common.

Spencer is amazing, yes, but his brand of humor and Sam's brand of humor is different and he cannot act as the glue for the trio. Carly may have been the glue in the earlier seasons of iCarly when Sam and Freddie were always fighting but in the end the web show was the glue that held the trio together to begin with without which Carly and Sam wouldn't have connected to Freddie as easily at all. And after the web show? Sam & Freddie and Sam & Carly had the bonds built to last. Carly and Freddie were always friends who cared about each other but definitely not with the kind of same interests that last beyond high school. If anything only their existing attachment through the years of doing the webshow is what would logically keep them together as old friends rather than any lasting commonalities between them which is important in maintaining relationships, both platonic and romantic.

Sam was also integral to Spencer's character too because Carly was always very independent even though she loved Spencer. But Sam was someone who clearly needed stability in her life. Not in a controlling way but in a positive way and for all of Spencer's immature habits, he acted as that anchor for Sam as much as he did for Carly by being her big brother and including her in the family. With Gibby its not as clear but near the end of the show, Sam clearly had a good friendship with him too. iOpen a Restaurant was the testimony episode of the fact that they were good friends and Sam was willing to go to all lengths to defend him just as she would Freddie or Carly.

I'm worried about what this remake will do to Sam's character development from the later seasons. I'd resent the fact if they played off her growth as "oh she's in prison" and leave it at that. I'd rather they say she died in some accident and show Carly and Freddie and Spencer struggling with this fact (especially if Jennette is 100% certain she won't want to come back at any point) and running the web show without her. The new series is for adults, right? And death is a concept not touched upon by many adult sitcoms so I think this would be the most satisfying way to tribute Sam but also explain her absence.

I'm also worried about the ship wars. It's no secret that Seddie vs Creddie was probably the advent of internet ship wars back in the day. They were the first major "love triangle" to hit the internet sphere as it was just starting to become mainstream. If they force Creddie on us from the beginning I will resent the show at once even if they explain it as "Carly and Freddie grew close over the years" because as of now, I don't see them ever working out. Never did. As friends they're amazing. But the idea that they'll force Creddie on us as the "natural conclusion" just because Jennette can't do the show would be bullshit. It would negate Freddie's development too especially because his feelings for Sam are well established (even if you don't consider Sam and Cat canon). To have him whimpering after Carly again would suck big time.

Now... Going back to my "Sam died in an accident and Freddie and Carly are grieving" idea... IF they go with this and IF they do it right, then that is possibly the ONLY way I will ever come to accept Creddie. If they put the work in, if they show Carly and Freddie helping each other heal from the same loss it might (strong emphasis on might) work. I mean even so there's no guarantees it will at least in my POV cuz my beef is that they don't have chemistry romantically at all. Even if they do go for such a plot line, I'd still prefer they only stay friends but regardless, if they wanna do it right, then they have to acknowledge Carly and Freddie as people and Sam's importance in their solo and individual lives for it to work out which is why helping each other heal is the best way to bridge that development gap and the only semi convincing way that Freddie and Carly might work in a distant future.

I really hope against all odds that Jennette finds herself and the new filming environment well-enough for her to consider returning even if they make major changes to Sam's character to avoid triggering Jennette's bad memories. The idea of having my favorite trio of friends ALL back together is something I am longing for so so much.

I feel the show would ring hollow without Sam. I don't want Carly to get a new best friend and co-host. I don't want Creddie to be forced upon us with no reason to believe as to why they would work. I don't want Spencer to not have to worry about his second little sister who's always at his house even tho she's an adult now. I just miss Sam Puckett so much and I want her to come back home with the rest of her friends.

But if she doesn't come back, I want the new show to commit to it in a way that will respect all of us. It will respect the fans, old and new, shippers and non shippers. It will respect the cast and Jennette and all she gave into Sam despite the suffering she went through to bring her to life. It will respect the characters within the iCarly-verse too: Carly, Freddie and Spencer (and hopefully Gibby).

That's why I feel like the only way for the show to commit to not having Sam at all (again, provided Jennette is certain she's not coming back. If she wants to do guest episodes then obviously I'd love for her to do that and the show would need a different plot line to work) is to kill her off. Because that respects the characters of the show by having them deal with Sam's loss and grieve her absence. It respects the fans of the show too because we are also dealing with Sam's loss and absence too albeit in a different way cuz she can't be in the show. It's a way to connect the audience with the characters which will be sorely needed to make this new show work.

I just hope whoever is in charge knows what they're doing and understands the nuance of storytelling especially of Sam's character because she literally was the most nuanced out of all of them and to fill her absence (no matter what route they take) needs to be a carefully constructed plan.

Or ya know, Paramount you could just hire me? 🤷🏻‍♀️
